Girls generate power from sunlight
After welcoming the girls at the ipv, female researchers presented their work in the lab and explained how electricity can be generated from sunlight. The group then visited the solar plant on the roof of the university. After a short snack, the girls then built a fruit tea solar cell themselves.
What is a fruit tea solar cell?
A fruit tea solar cell is not a silicon but a dye solar cell. This was invented by Michael Grätzel in 1990, based on the functioning of plant photosynthesis.
