Elon Musk and SolarCity Unveil ‘world’s Most Efficient’ Solar Panel

BySustainMe

Elon Musk and SolarCity Unveil ‘world’s Most Efficient’ Solar Panel:

Wow. Greater than 22% efficient from solar panels. Far better than the lonely plant with about 5% efficiency from photosynthesis.

This is impressive.

Combine very efficient and affordable power generation with some great battery storage technology and suddenly the solar starts to become an irrefusable option: gotta do it because it is the best available option where the sun shines regularly!

Maybe the batteries should be portable. In your car(s) even!:-)
