While the new solar technologies that have been discovered center around nanotechnology, there are several different material methods currently used. A-Si. * Anwell Technologies Limited. CdTe (second generation) * First Solar. CIGS (copper indium gallium selenide) (second generation) ...
One hundred years back only a few folk in the world had access to electricity or any need for it. WOW! Things have changed! Today it appears that everything we own runs on electric power. We have grown accustomed to having unlimited power that the general public never mull it until something goes belly up or there's a blackout. Sadly , those times have long passed. We are living in a period of scarceness. Electricity cost is fast inflating and we must take active action to re...
