Riga Photonics Centre (RFC) together with the Center for Photonics and Smart Materials (CPSM) of Zewail City of Science & Technology, a research university in Egypt, are building a consortium are building a consortium of research centers, firms, NGOs and governmental agencies to develop projects and programs to address the critical problem of creating access to electricity to people in Africa with 2030 set as the year to achieve that goal. For more information contact Vidvuds Beldavs at RFC (vid.beldavs@rigaphotonicscentre.org) Electrify Africa - 2030 Concept An international alliance formed to meet UN Sustainable Development Goal 7 for Africa: Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all people. The Electrify Africa 2030 consortium is being created to address the important and urgent problem of over 600 million people in Africa with no connection to reliable electrical power. This slows sustainable development and impedes adaptation to

(Larry) Cooke, Chief Technology Officer for NovaSolix, a California-based solar panel manufacturer, discussed a way to make what are essentially radio waves into efficient, inexpensive solar power. His biography includes this indicator of a productive life. “Larry “Cooke has written one book, multiple papers and have over 100 granted US patents. Cooke is currently CTO and Chairman of NovaSolix, a revolutionary Carbon Nanotube Rectenna array based solar cell start-up.” NovaSolix separates its approach to capturing solar energy from the “traditional” solar cell, solar panel method. “The Old Way” Thoughtco.com says, “Any device that directly converts the energy in light into electrical energy through the process of photovoltaics is a solar cell.” Such devices have a longer history than your editor anticipated.

NĀKAMĀS PAAUDZES TEHNOLOĢIJAS IZSTRĀDE AUGSTAS TĪRĪBAS KRISTĀLU AUDZĒŠANĀ
https://rigaphotonicscentre.files.wordpress.com/2021/10/2-ceturksnis-levitacija_070-luweb-01.07.-30.09.2021-final.pdf Projekta Levitācija zinātnisko rezultātu pārskats Atskaites periods Nr. 2. (01.07.2021. - 30.09.2021.) Projekts: Nr. 1.1.1.1/20/A/070 “ Nākamās paaudzes tehnoloģijas izstrāde augstas tīrības kristālu audzēšanā, izmantojot MHD pseido levitāciju ”. Projekta realizētāji: Latvijas Universitāte (vadošais partneris), SIA “AGL Technologies” un SIA “Cryogenic and Vacuum Systems”. Projekta vispārējais mērķis: Vispārējais mērķis ir pirmo reizi pasaulē pārbaudīt eksperimentāli nākamās paaudzes iekārtas koncepciju ultra augstas tīrības pakāpes germānija kristālu audzēšanai ar MHD levitācijas metodi pseidolevitācijas apstākļos (nākotnes vajadzības prasa tīrību viens svešais atoms uz 10 13 germānija atomiem Ge kristālā) ar virsmērķi nākotnē tādus ražot un lietot Latvijā, kā arī eksportēt, licencējot intelektuālo īpašum
