It might sound counterintuitive to put solar cells indoors, but there’s still plenty of light energy inside that’s largely going to waste. Now, a team of engineers is claiming to have created flexible ...

Scientists have invented a new kind of solar panel capable of harvesting energy from indoor fluorescent lights. The next-generation solar cells were created using the so-called ‘miracle material’ ...

In the sterile, LED-lit gloom of an office, a solar panel is about as useful as a sundial. Traditional silicon cells are built for the unfiltered fire of the Sun but work miserably with artificial ...

From Wi-Fi-connected home security systems to smart toilets, the so-called Internet of Things brings personalization and convenience to devices that help run homes. But with that comes tangled ...

What just happened? Researchers at University College London have developed a new type of solar cell capable of efficiently generating power from indoor light, a breakthrough that could reduce ...
