www.sciencenewsden.com/2006/newsolarcellstop40efficiency.shtml This is good news. |
| Sounds cool! Solar will get there as a cost-effective alternative to grid-based power. I hope sooner rather than later. I would love to be able to generate my own power rather than depend on a power grid, whether it be from solar or a Mr. Fusion reactor in the basement. Decentralized power generation will only help things from a SHTF perspective as well. Also in freeing more people to develop anywhere they choose, not just where the power companies have lines. |
Excellent.

So how would you strap a huge ass cable on that and not have it come apart as it whizzed through the atmosphere at like 17000 MPH? I bet you could also generate some killer static charges with that too. :)
