The novel method utilizes deep learning and image processing techniques to detect solar thermal and photovoltaic systems, and according to its authors, a follow-up study might even enhance the ...

The hybrid system also demonstrated a solar utilization efficiency of 14.9%, which represents an improvement over the two hybrid solar systems when operating independently.

As the electrons flow through the cell, they generate electricity. On a much larger scale, solar-thermal power plants employ various techniques to concentrate the sun's energy as a heat source.

Astronomers are using the NASA's Hubble Telescope to study auroras — stunning light shows in a planet’s atmosphere — on the poles of the largest planet in the solar system, Jupiter. This animation ...
