Why is it so difficult to recycle electronic devices?
Electronic products are often treated as disposable items. This needs to become much more circular. And that is precisely what John Schermer and Fatin Battal from Radboud University are working on within the Circular Circuits project.
Testing a more durable connection between components in chips
At Radboud University, researchers are investigating a more robust connection method between components in chips.
Solar cells are not a waste of energy
Do solar panels provide more energy than is put into them? Solar cell researcher John Schermer from Radboud University: 'If solar cells were not so promising, then there would not be as much global research into them.’
Pleasantly sustainable: green façades with coloured solar panels
The start-up Soluxa has combined necessity with aesthetics, resulting in coloured solar panels that can be used on building façades. Soluxa completed their first pilot project which involved the installation of a solar façade on the Huygens Building.
