In a science journal, Angewandte Chemie, the researches claimed to have developed a technology that would make solar cells all weather. The solar panels would be covered with a layer of liquid graphene -- a form of carbon.
During sunny days, the panels will use existing technology for generating power while during rain it will use the graphene-based energy transformation system thus keeping the power flow un-interrupted.
This could raise the capacity utilisation of solar panels to a great extent which, at present, cannot generate during rains.
According to the research paper, the scientists that have developed it hopes to advance the system from a lab-experiment to commercial development soon.
