Just Have a Think - Solar PV film roll. Revolutionary new production technology 31102021

Solar PV panels are now a common site around the world and they do a great job. But they only work on flat surfaces. What about the millions of other surfaces that are not so conveniently shaped? That's where flexible solar film comes in. The concept is not new but now a UK company has developed a unique Solar PV film that could make the technology accessible to millions more people in remote off grid areas in developing nations

Real Engineering - The mystery flaw of Solar Panels

This video looks at the current state of the PV panels, the limitation, efficiency and even a little bit the possible future evolutions It explains how Photovoltaic cells work and highlights the issue of PV's low efficiency; i.e. they convert approximately 20% of the incoming energy from sunlight in to electric current, but this efficiency reduces over time whilst the PV is in operation
