Solar Industry Outlines a Policy Agenda for the Biden Administration, 117th Congress
The Solar Vision is consistent with our goals in the Solar+ Decade and will put America on a path to 100% clean energy. It lays out three strategic imperatives for the solar industry, each of which contain numerous policy proposals.
Increasing the Efficiency of Solar Power - Power Resistors Are a Key Solar Component
Solar PV systems aren't consistently efficient, with many hardly surpassing 20 per cent efficiency. Increasing the capability of solar PV systems is essential if we're to incorporate more solar energy into the grid.
"Transparent Solar Cells" Can Take Us Towards a New Era of Personalized Energy
Scientists in Korea have put forth an innovative design for the development of a high-power transparent solar cell. This innovation brings us closer to realizing our goal of a sustainable green future with off-the-grid living.

Vecoplan - Planning and implementation of complete processing plants in refuse derived fuel production
In order to reduce the costs involved in the energy-intensive production of cement, many manufacturers are turning to refuse-derived fuels (RDF), considerably reducing the proportion of expensive primary fuels they would normally use. Solid fuels are being increasingly used - these might be used tyres, waste wood or mixtures of plastics, paper, composite materials and textiles. Vecoplan provides operators of cement plants with proven and robust components for conveying the material and separating iron and impurities, efficient receiving stations, storage systems and, of course, efficient shredders for an output in various qualities.
