Bioscience engineers at KU Leuven have created a solar panel that produces hydrogen gas from moisture in the air. Twenty of these solar panels could provide electricity and heat for one family for an entire winter. A traditional solar panel converts between 18 to 20% of the solar energy into electricity.

Between my electric bikes, e-motorcycles, e-ATVs, electric tractors, and a few other things I’m probably forgetting, having a weather-sealed, solar-powered off-grid charging shed would be a big benefit. There are many ways to skin a cat, and even more ways to add solar power to a shipping container. Here’s how I did it.

The possibility of selling hydrogen could result in a further expansion of solar and wind power in developing countries, contributing to their economies. The hydrogen is liquefied where electricity is cheap. Also, SAHL can lower energy consumption for hydrogen liquefaction by 25 to 50%. —Julian Hunt Resources Hunt, J.,

Hertz is starting to sell some of its Tesla Model 3s and they are going for pretty cheap – as low as $14,000 with the used EV tax credit. Obviously, the reason those Model 3s are listed so cheap is due to their high mileage over a short period of time and the fact that people are a lot less careful with rental vehicles.

However, due to their inability to absorb visible light, which accounts for more than half of solar energy, their practical use in the conversion of solar energy is limited. Sn 3 O 4 has great potential as an abundant, cheap, and environmentally benign solar-energy conversion catalyst. —Manikandan et al.

It is now used on construction sites to reconstruct a full three-dimensional model of an environment, just by walking around with one of the latest smartphones, which incorporate depth sensors. And as 3D printing progresses to larger and stronger components, even the structural elements will be freed from the tyranny of perpendicularity.
