Bi-Facial Solar Panels: Technology Overview
Overview Bi-facial solar photovoltaic (PV) panels have been around for many years however they are only now beginning to enter the mainstream market as a commercially viable alternative to the more common monofacial solar panels. We therefore thought it would be a good idea to explore the technology further and…

Big Wind Turbines Near Hamburg Airport
Background There are many wind turbines in the vicinity of Hamburg Airport in northern Germany. The photograph below shows two turbines at Altenwerder which have tip heights of 198.5 metres above ground level whilst lying just 6.4 nautical miles from the Airport boundary and 7.8 nautical miles from its radar…
What will it be like to fly again?
Background The number of commercial flights seems to have bottomed out at around 28,000 per day which is just under a quarter of the 110,000 figure at the end of January. Eventually commercial aviation will start to recover – we look at some of the changes we are likely to…
Coronavirus caused by 5G?
