What's the most efficient way to make electricity from solar power on a large scale?
What’s the most efficient way to make electricity from solar power on a large scale? Is it using photovoltaic cells, or mirros and a turbine or what? I’d be interested in a web site that compares all the options by efficiency, cost, reliability in cloudy weather, and stuff like that.
What happened to the 2002 promise of super efficient (up to 70%) solar cells using indium gallium nitride?
I knew I’d heard something about researchers developing new solar cells which will triple the output efficiency of solar panels. When I go online to research this…NOTHING since the initial discovery at Berkely in 2002. Did some oil company gobble it up?
