University of Salford aims to improve the efficiency and durability of thin film solar cell panels(20/01/2009)
University of Salford scientists are working on a new technique which could substantially improve the efficiency, cost effectiveness and durability of thin film solar cell panels. Professor Arthur Hill and his team from the University’s Institute for Materials Research within the School of Computing Science & Engineering have received one year’s funding from the Joule Centre to work on a method of laying down a more efficient solar cell materi...

SODAR will ensure that wind farms are sited in the places where they will operate to their top potential(15/10/2008)
Wind and potential power at a proposed site are measured using a wind speed sensor on a mast, but these do not take into account the considerable variations in wind caused by local terrain and atmospheric turbulence. In addition, with the height of wind turbines becoming greater all the time, taller and more expensive masts are constantly required. Researchers at the University of Salford have begun working on a device to ensure that wind far... [more]
