Solar Energy

New solar technologies are targeting increased energy efficiency, lowered cost and simplified production.

For the past decade, solar energy has been the fastest growing source of renewable energy in the U.S. and is forecast to power 60% of global growth in renewable energy through 2024. New technologies target increasing energy efficiency, lowering cost and simplifying production. These include perovskite solar cells (mineral coatings), multi-junction solar cells (combining multiple semiconductor materials) and concentrator photovoltaics (CPV), which use lenses or curved mirrors to focus sunlight.

A series of three- or four-way electrohydraulic servovalves (EHSVs) that drive actuators or motors in closed-loop servosystems used to control position, velocity, and force in hydraulic systems, fuel systems, and engine control applications.
