Title: Latest solar technology
Post by: Okie_Bob on August 28, 2008, 07:10:05 AM
I'm sorry if I'm posting in the wrong location. Glenn, please move to the proper place.
I just received this in my office and immediately thought of all the guys (and gals) on here with an interest
in solar power for their projects.
I doubt there is anything in this magizine that will be of any help short term. But, it does show that there is
a trememdous amount of research going on right now that when developed will make a substantial difference
when you want to build that cabin off grid.
Anyway, take a look if solar is in your future   http://newsletters.pennnet.com/techwatch/27448039.html

Thanks OB. The future looks pretty rosy when you see there is lots of interest in developing cheaper technology methods. Sort of makes you wonder if one should bite the bullet and just do it or wait. But if we always waited for the promised newest development we'd never buy a thing.   ???

Some interesting ideas - wish they would hurry up  :D  But then the big commercial buildings get the newest technology - guess the big purchasers speed up the research processes.
