With the uk's energy price cap lifting next week, many household bills are to soar. from around 18p per kilowatt hour last year, the variable rate of electricity is expected to jump to more than 26p by the autumn and at least 32p if you want to fix your prices for a year or more, depending on where you live in the uk. at £3,500 the arc isn't cheap. but it is guaranteed for 20 years. it's film panels which are upgradable are expected to produce an average of 1000 kilowatt hours per year by the end of 2022. when it becomes thousand kilowatt—hours a year, in the uk you are looking at about 21p...

Can't take solar panels with us. or just those glaring large slabs isn't quite the look we're after. so, i've been to the homes of two british start—ups. of two british start—ups who want you to look again. this is the solivas arc. its curves are wrapped in an organic solar film which doesn't contain any toxic substances nor rare earth materials that could require mining. and so, it has a much smaller carbon footprint than traditional panels. and that's not all. now, the arc is designed to capture sunlight throughout more of the day, and that's partly because it's got five surfaces on whic...

More powerful, and more useful. this factory in stockholm is making ultra—thin solar cells that don't even need sunlight to harvest energy. the idea is they can be used outside or inside your home to power products. i will be showing you later on what that means for various devices. but first, here's dan simmons has been looking at how solar could help the energy price crisis. although most of us like the idea of clean energy, so far we've not been persuaded. maybe it's because we don't own our own roof. 0r it's the upfront costs. maybe we are thinking of moving and feel we can't take solar ...
