The breakthrough may have far reaching applications, including for public lighting, outdoor signage and mobile power generation.
The scientists are part of a collaboration between research and industry called the Victorian Organic Solar Cell Consortium (VICOSC).
Australian solar power experts making up the Victorian Organic Solar Cell Consortium have developed and begun to market solar cells that are created with a 3D printer.
“The group, consisting of scientists from the CSIRO, the University of Melbourne and Monash University have been working on the technology for over seven years and have figured out a way to cheaply print the panels onto plastic, including smart-phones and laptops, enabling self charging electronics. They are also able to print directly on to walls and windows using an opaque solar film and claim that they can line a skyscraper with panels, making it totally electrically self sufficient.” said sciencealert.com
“We print them onto plastic in more or less the same way we print our plastic banknotes,” said Fiona Scholes, senior research scientist at CSIRO. “Connecting our solar panels is as simple as connecting a battery. It’s very cheap. The way in which it looks and works is quite different to conventional silicon rooftop solar.”
The next step is to create a solar spray coating to enhance the power of the panel. “We would like to improve the efficiency of solar panels – we need to develop solar inks to generate more energy from sunlight,” said Scholes. “We are confident we can push the technology further in the years to come.”

she's hot
回复删除An INPLIX is a place where you can learn how to make it yourself much cheaper.
回复删除Just google 'inplix' , take instructions and make it yourself :)
回复删除Shut up Meg!
回复删除Can I know the Model's name/??
回复删除Is it commercially available for purchase for diy projects
回复删除cost and space cutting system.
回复删除Is it water resistant? And how will the energy get stored?
回复删除PLEASE Watch my Solar Invention Commercial, for my Utility Patented Solar Device, attached to my Gofundme! I'm in Arizona, U.S.A. and this will make solar more ergonomic, affordable, and less wasteful. Plus, it's made out of recycled materials, and I'm letting individual people build their own!!! https://www.gofundme.com/NEWSOLARINVENTION
回复删除AWESOME! Well Done Mates.
