Finally

For years, BRT has stated that when efficient solar can be put into a cheap and elegant form factor able to be applied in endless ways, (roofs, windows etc., etc.) the tech will finally take off. Well, it seems the form factor issue has finally been resolved.

"A scientific advance in renewable energy which promises a revolution in the ease and cost of using solar cells, has been announced today. A new study shows that even when using very simple and inexpensive manufacturing methods - where flexible layers of material are deposited over large areas like cling-film - efficient solar cell structures can be made."

When combined with artificial photosynthesis being developed by MIT, Cal Tech and numerous others, the path to a viable sustainable future becomes possible.

Tech finds a way.
