  • Overview of redox flow battery chemistries, market players

      Two weeks ago, we explored how redox flow batteries (RFB) stack up to lithium batteries. Today we dig more into the main RFB technologies currently available or under development, beginning with the most adopted and investigated Redox Flow Batteries (RFB), the Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries (VRFB).  This analysis comes viaRead More — Solar Builder magazine

  • Evaluating redox flow vs. lithium-ion batteries with IDTechEx Research

    In this first part of a series of articles from IDTechEx, an overview of the flow batteries characteristics is provided, extrapolated from IDTechEx’s recent report “Redox Flow Battery 2020-2030: Forecast, Challenges, Opportunities”. While Li-ion batteries are dominating the stationary energy storage sector, a growing number of companies are developing differentRead More — Solar Builder magazine

  • Photovoltaic facades: How feasible is the technology, and in what applications

    There are several flavors of technology today jostling to make the dream of electricity-generating windows a reality. While these are likely too expensive and inefficient to be in your home any time soon, pilot projects for such windows in commercial buildings are gaining momentum, and studies (utilizing annual data ofRead More — Solar Builder magazine

  • Report: Perovskite solar cells show potential with efficiency improvement, lowering costs

    Perovskite solar cells have shown potential both in the rapid efficiency improvement and in cheap material and manufacturing costs, says IDTechEx. Just how rapid of an efficiency improvement? Perovskite cells went from 2.2% in 2006 to the latest record 20.1% in 2014. They have attracted attention from the likes of DSSC and OPVsRead More — Solar Builder magazine

  • Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting Applications

    Understanding all aspects of renewable energy is important. Read this post on thermoelectric energy, also known as the “Seebeck effect,” by Dr Harry Zervos, Senior Technology Analyst, IDTechEx. All financial projections for the market come from IDTechEx.
