โœฆ Synopsis

Thin-film ZnO CdS/Cu(In,Ga)Sez solar cells, characterized by being inexpensive, highly efficient and having a large area, have been developed. Recent laboratory-scale research have shown that polycrystalline thin-film cells of this general composition deposited onto inexpensive soda-lime glass substrates have solar-to-electric conversion efficiencies exceeding 17%. Inexpensive, non-vacuum deposition technology which is inherently scaleable to large-area deposition is discussed here.

Solar cooking is often considered ''a solution looking for a problem''. Solar cookers have long been presented as an interesting solution to the world's problem of dwindling fuel wood sources and other environmental problems associated with wood fuel demand for cooking. However, recent GTZ field wor

In the analysis of short-and long-run effects of economic variables on energy use, co-integration techniques are promising candidates. These techniques were employed to develop an error correction model of annual US residential electricity demand. Equipment stock indices were compiled and the model
