Breakthrough in Solar Technology: Cell Achieves 36.1% Efficiency

In a groundbreaking development for renewable energy, researchers have achieved a remarkable 36.1% efficiency in a new solar cell. This achievement, detailed in a recent study published in the journal Nature Energy, marks a significant leap forward in the quest for more efficient solar power generation.

Traditional solar cells typically have efficiency rates ranging from 15% to 22%, making this newly developed cell a potential game-changer for the industry. The improved efficiency means that more sunlight can be converted into electricity, making solar power even more economically viable and environmentally friendly.

The breakthrough was made possible through advanced materials and innovative engineering techniques. This higher efficiency paves the way for increased solar power adoption, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change. The implications of this discovery are immense, as it could lead to a surge in solar power installations worldwide. Governments, businesses, and individuals looking to invest in clean energy sources now have a more compelling reason to turn to solar power. This development aligns with global efforts to transition to sustainable energy sources, reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

6 Tunnel Boring Machines Idle in Chennai

Six tunnel boring machines (TBMs) deployed by the Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) are currently lying idle beneath city roads, stuck in limbo due to delayed construction of underground stations at Moolakadai, Perambur, and Mandaveli. The TBMs, launched as part of Corridor 3 of the Phase II Metro project from Madhavaram to SIPCOT, have reached their designated stations but are unable to proceed as the station boxes are incomplete. Without a completed diaphragm wall or station box, the machines cannot break through or be dismantled for reuse. According to CMRL officials, the root of the dela..
