Renewable energy harvesting technologies, which convert ambient resources such as wind into electrical energy, have attracted significant attention as sustainable power sources for self-powered systems. However, the long-term applicability of wind energy harvesters in remote or extreme environments has not yet been fully discussed, particularly in terms of structural robustness and environmental adaptability. In this study, we designed a double-clamped flutter-type triboelectric generator (DFTEG) for efficient wind energy harvesting and evaluated its output performance under various simulated outdoor conditions. The DFTEG features a modular acrylic frame with a magnet-based assembly for easy maintenance and film replacement, utilizing PTFE films and aluminum electrodes to maximize the charge density difference according to the triboelectric series. Structural optimization revealed that a single-film configuration with a length of 110 mm produced the most stable flutter vibration and a large effective contact area, achieving a maximum open-circuit voltage of 42.28 V and a short-circuit current of 2.89 μA. Furthermore, performance evaluations under various environmental variables, including relative humidity, temperature, and sand particles interference, confirmed consistent electrical output across diverse environmental conditions. These results demonstrate the potential of the proposed DFTEG as an environmentadaptive independent power source capable of stable operation under complex environmental factors.

Metal halide perovskite materials have emerged as promising candidates for next-generation optoelectronic applications owing to their outstanding optical properties and tunable emission characteristics. However, their practical application is hindered by poor environmental stability, especially under conditions of heat, moisture, and UV exposure, necessitating effective encapsulation strategies. This review summarizes recent progress in enhancing the environmental stability of perovskite nanocrystals through polymer matrix embedding, inorganic oxide encapsulation, and compositionally matched core-shell structures using homogenous perovskite derivatives. We discuss how polymers enhance the environmental and moisture stability of perovskite nanocrystals, how oxide-based shells (e.g., SiO₂, TiO₂) contribute to thermal robustness and barrier protection, and how homostructural core-shells provide lattice-matched defect passivation with improved long-term durability. A comprehensive understanding of the advantages and limitations of each encapsulation strategy, along with their rational integration, can accelerate the commercialization of perovskite-based technologies in various applications such as highcolor- purity displays, color conversion filters, and flexible optoelectronic devices.

In our study, we collected data from a 100 kW floating photovoltaic (PV) system installed in Gyeongnam Hapcheon Dam and observed correlations between the power generation of the floating PV system and the irradiance, water temperature, humidity, ambient temperature, wind speed, and module temperature. Firstly, there was little correlation between the water temperature and power generation. Secondly, the ambient temperature, wind speed, and humidity all showed greater correlations with power generation. Finally, the power generation was very highly correlated with the irradiance and module temperature. In conclusion, the power generation of the floating PV system is related individually to environmental factors.

In this paper, the effects of environmental variables on the output of the floating photovoltaic water systems, which were installed at the Hapcheon dam in South Korea, were investigated, and the correlations between them were analyzed. The system output was linearly proportional to the solar radiation or irradiance. The output was large in spring and autumn because of high irradiance, but low in the summer when the solar module temperature was high. The influence of the module temperature on the system output was limited in the summer, during which the module temperature change affected the system output more than the change of the irradiance did. In addition, in winter and summer, the module temperature tended to decrease with increasing windspeed, but windspeed did not affect module temperature significantly in the spring and autumn. On the other hand, in winter and spring, the irradiance decreased as the windspeed increased because of movement (or circulation) of the photovoltaic modules.

When the high voltage motor fails in power plants, there will be an occurrence where the generator`s output would be reduced or the generators would trip. Despite of these effects, the causes of deterioration of the high voltage motor is very seldom investigated. In this paper, the collected data which tested in the field over 10 years have been treated statistically, and analyzed to correlate the insulation deterioration of high voltage motor and installation environment, number of start/stop, and service life. Moreover, the proper period of insulation test is developed to map out maintenance strategy and reduce maintenance costs.
