European Scientists Look To Globalize Solar Energy Grid
A global solar energy grid? That seems a bit farfetched, or is it? Based on current nanotechnology and expected improvements and innovations, European scientists are seriously considering that very possibility. This confidence and forward-thinking, which found expression at the recent European Science Foundation conference, stems from the promise of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) and biomimetics. DSCs commonly use a natural or synthetic dye and titanium dioxide to capture and convert solar energy into usable electricity. These third-generation solar cells are biomimetic because they essentially mimic the natural process of photosynthesis ...
