Indoor farming startups are known to grow crops using efficient LED light bulbs with custom “light recipes” that adjust the color of the LEDs to help plants grow faster. With that said, all these lighting systems using LED bulbs still use a huge amount of energy, which is why … [Read more...] about This tech makes sunlight more potent so normal greenhouses can grow more

This cheap mineral is making LED lighting technology far more efficient
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) may be the most energy efficient light-generating technology we have now, but scientists have found a way to make them even more efficient. Using perovskite, a mineral found abundantly in the Earth’s mantle, as the semiconductor, the LED can produce … [Read more...] about This cheap mineral is making LED lighting technology far more efficient
