Progress in the Solar Cell Two Step Method

Thermal photovoltaics are solar cells that convert the light that radiates from a hot surface into electricity. The first applications will be generating electricity from waste heat, and then the technology could be developed to generate electricity from sunlight far more efficiently than photovoltaic solar cells. In the thermal photovoltaics system, sunlight is concentrated on a device to heat it up, and the light it emits is then converted into electricity by the photovoltaic portion of the cell. That’s a very interesting combination of engineering steps.
