Today, the world is grappling with more than just the climate crisis, and yet even now, in the face of a global pandemic, scientists are marching on with renewable solutions.

现在全世界要应对的不只有气候危机。即使现在全球面临疫情，科学家也在推进可再生能源解决方案。

Just this month, no less than three records have been broken in solar panel efficiency. The first and the second were achieved by scientists in the United States at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

就在本月，在太阳能电池板效率方面有多达三项纪录被打破了。前两项纪录是国家可再生能源实验室的美国科学家打破的。

Their unique "six-junction" solar cell has uNPRecedented energy conversion, turning intensified light into electricity at 47.1 percent efficiency - the most efficient in the world under concentrated light conditions. This record beat the previous contender established just a couple of years ago by one percent.

他们独特的“六结”太阳能电池能进行前所未有的能量转换，强光与电能的转换效率是47.1%，是聚光条件下的全球最高效率。这个纪录比几年前的纪录高出一个百分点。

"This device really demonstrates the extraordinary potential of multijunction solar cells," says John Geisz who works at NREL.

在国家可再生能源实验室工作的John Geisz说：“这个设备真的展示了多结太阳能电池的非凡潜力。”
