Please look up solar film on goggle or yahoo and you should find something about it. Whats cool about it? I believe they said it was 10 times more efficient and it can mold to surfaces such as the top of a car, they can cover a whole roof and its much cheaper. The government is currently having its hands on this so its off limits right now. Also, sooner or later you can just print it out on a high speed printer. The company is looking to ways to make it even cheaper. Just like the old HUGe Computers of the past, so will the solar panel disappear one recent invention is a solar film, not a solar panel.
