Australian Research Team Develops a Perovskite-Silicon Solar Cell with 30.3% Efficiency that Will Likely Be Commercialized in 2026 – EQ Mag
Australia has long had high expectations of solar energy and set a goal to reduce the cost of solar energy to AUD 0.30 per installed watt by 2030 along with a 30% solar-cell efficiency. The chance of achieving this goal has become high as The Australian National University (ANU) proposed a tandem cell with an […]
Australian researchers make clear gains in solar glass technology
Australian researchers have found a way to boost the energy efficiency and longevity of solar integrated glass, while also allowing more natural light to pass through it, marking a two-pronged breakthrough for the technology. The research team, based at Victoria’s Monash University and CSIRO, say they have demonstrated power conversion efficiencies of 15.5% and 4.1% […]
Australian Billionaires Invest $152 Million In Undersea Solar Power Cable Link To Singapore – EQ Mag Pro
Australian billionaires Mike Cannon-Brookes and Andrew Forrest have invested A$210 million ($152 million) to bankroll the construction of an undersea cable link that will deliver solar generated electricity to Singapore from Down Under.

Thomas Maschmeyer is building batteries fit for the Australian outback – EQ Mag Pro
His start-up, Gelion, wants to bring zinc bromide batteries—and more-reliable power—to remote regions Remote communities in the Australian outback often rely on solar power—and on batteries that can reliably store that electricity, should anything go wrong with their solar panels. But temperatures in this region can exceed a sweltering 40 °C, which saps the efficiency […]
Australian PM Morrison says may not join global climate summit – EQ Mag Pro
The world’s biggest coal exporter by value, and still reliant on fossil fuels for most of its electricity, Australia has not made a firm commitment on its own greenhouse gas reductions. Sydney: Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, under pressure to adopt a 2050 net-zero carbon emissions target, said in an interview published Monday that he […]
Australian Project to Examine Potential of Using Wastewater in Hydrogen Production – EQ Mag Pro
