This team will undertake the development of high-efficiency, high-power solar cells made of materials with excellent radiation resistance. It will also engage in developing a thermal cell power generation system that utilizes the energy available from a difference between indoor and outdoor temperature; the system can work even at night. Other targets of the team include a flywheel type high-energy-density power-storage system that works with solar and thermal cells.
