  • Promising Solar Power Technologies [View article]
    Not much new information here. Anyone who keeps up with solar power innovations will realize that all of this has been in the works for several years. The whole problem is making cool lab stuff commercially viable. There are many cool innovations in the lab, but few that have made it to production. Thin film roofing tiles has been something that multiple companies have been trying to make commercially viable for nearly 10 years.

    Since this article talks about concentrating solar power, I'd like to mention Ausra. It is a private company that has figured a way to drastically reduce the cost of that decades old technology of concentrating light to boil water and run a turbine to generate electricity. It is building a prototype plant in Southern California. This is what you want to watch, not one of hundreds of cool things happening in a lab somewhere.
