#solarPower

Today I learned, that weather stations for the #Arctic are powered by #solar panels, installed vertically to minimize snow accumulation. During the ~100 days of arctic night solely powered by #solarBatteries, which, due to the cold temperatures, only have ~50% capacity. Besides the whole thing having continuous satellite communication AND being polarbear-proof.

So tell me more about how off-grid solar power is not feasible in the cold, and when the sun is not shining?!

How can #solarbatteries, #iontransport, and #perovskites shape the future of #energy? 🔋 Researchers at our e-conversion Cluster of Excellence explore innovative solutions, from integrated #solarstorage to sustainable #photocatalysis: http://go.tum.de/424612

#Japan’s #MoonLander has resumed operations, the country’s space agency said on Monday, indicating that #power had been restored after it was left upside down during a slightly haphazard landing.

The probe, nicknamed the “moon sniper”, had tumbled down a crater slope during its landing on 20 January, leaving its #SolarBatteries facing in the wrong direction and unable to generate electricity. #SLIM #TheMoon
