Solar panel skin to make homes energy neutral

The project 'House with a Skin' aims to solve the problems relating to the current building stock by laying a new skin over existing houses. The skin covers the exterior of the existing house from font to back, one side fitted with glass and photovoltaic panels to harvest the energy from the sun, while the other contains added insulation to trap the heat indoors.

New research could help make roll-up digital screens a reality for all

A study, published today in Nature's Scientific Reports, identifies a new technology which could see flexible electronics such as roll-up tablet computers, widely available in the near future. So far, this area of electronic design has been hampered by unreliability and complexity of production.
