Scientists break out infrared tech to solve issue holding back next-gen solar panels: 'This makes the technology promising not just in the lab'
In a major leap for clean energy, scientists have figured out how to make solar panels that are lighter, more efficient, and — for the first time — durable enough for everyday use. A research team led by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, Switzerland, has developed a new method for making perovskite solar cells more stable in real-world conditions. The results, published in Joule, are exciting for solar fans everywhere. Perovskites have long been considered the future of solar. Unlike traditional silicon panels, they are ultra-light and low-cost and can be printed onto flexible surfaces. Think solar-powered windows, walls, or even wearable electronics. But until now, they've had one big flaw: They don't hold up well to sunlight and heat over time. According to this study in collaboration with the Polytechnic University of Milan, that might be about to change. The researchers found that by adding a molecule called TEMPO to the perovskite layer and hitting it with a quick infrared pulse — just half a second long — they could repair tiny defects in the material. This new process gives the panel efficiency of over 20% and maintains it for months under typical working conditions. "The proposed method is fast, solvent-free, and compatible with roll-to-roll processing, similar to that used in the printing industry. This makes the technology promising not just in the lab, but also for future industrial-scale production," explained Rafael Ferragut, researcher, teacher, and co-author of the study. For consumers, this could mean a new generation of solar products that are cheaper, lighter, and more versatile. These panels could help homeowners and cities break free from high, unpredictable utility bills by giving them more control over when and where they generate power. It also means reducing planet-warming pollution that harms public health and the environment. While the tech may still be in development, this breakthrough brings us one step closer to a future where clean energy is embedded into everyday life — literally. Installing solar panels is the ultimate home energy hack because it can bring your cost of energy down to or close to $0. EnergySage provides a free service that makes it easy to compare quotes from vetted local installers and save up to $10,000 on solar installations. For those not ready to buy, leasing is a great option. Palmetto's LightReach program locks in low energy rates for homeowners who want to switch to solar without paying high upfront costs. Community solar programs are another alternative for people who can't install panels but would like to benefit from lower energy costs and a more stable power supply.

EU tech rules not included in U.S. trade talks, EU Commission says
By Foo Yun Chee and Bart H. Meijer BRUSSELS (Reuters) -The European Union on Monday pushed back against U.S. criticism of its landmark tech rules that many feared could be included in ongoing trade negotiations with the United States and subsequently watered down. Adopted recently, the Digital Markets Act (DMA) seeks to rein in the power of Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, China's ByteDance and The Digital Services Act (DSA) requires big online platforms to do more to tackle illegal and harmful content. Both legislations have come under fire from the U.S. administration which says it unfairly targets U.S. tech companies. "The legislations will not be changed. The DMA and the DSA are not on the table in the trade negotiations with the U.S.," spokesperson Thomas Regnier told a daily news conference. He said the EU would not brook any interference from foreign governments on how it enforces its landmark rules which come with hefty fines for violations. "We are not going to adjust the implementation of our legislation based on the actions of third countries. If we started to do that, then we would have to do it with numerous third countries," Regnier said. The EU handed out its first fines to Apple and Meta earlier this year, with both risking further daily fines if regulators find that they have yet to comply with the rules in the coming months.

Boeing's $4.7 Billion Spirit Deal Faces UK Antitrust Probe
(Bloomberg) -- Boeing Co.'s $4.7 billion deal to buy Spirit AeroSystems Holdings Inc. will face UK antitrust investigation, the country's antitrust watchdog said. Philadelphia Transit System Votes to Cut Service by 45%, Hike Fares Squeezed by Crowds, the Roads of Central Park Are Being Reimagined Sao Paulo Pushes Out Favela Residents, Drug Users to Revive Its City Center Sprawl Is Still Not the Answer Mapping the Architectural History of New York's Chinatown The Competition and Markets Authority will decide whether the deal raises the risk of substantial lessening of competition in the UK. Boeing announced the deal last year with the total transaction value of $8.3 billion, that included Spirit's net debt. The CMA will make a decision to close the investigation or launch a deeper probe by August 28, it said in a notice published on Monday. The inquiry 'was anticipated and is part of the normal process for acquisitions of this nature,' a Spirit spokesperson said. Boeing's spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. The transaction, once completed, will reunite the firms two decades after Spirit was spun off in 2005 to trim costs. The merger will bring a key supplier for the 737, 787 Dreamliner and other commercial jets back to Boeing. (Updates with a comment by Spirit's spokesperson in the fourth paragraph.)
