to bad that it is a expensive system to shop and install :(
but it is a great idea, and perhaps one day it can be a smal lthing to build and install a system like this in our homes

nice story but too expensive for the rest of us.However there is one low cost trick you can use to get up to 10x more power out of a solar panel.Just reflect more light on it.Sure they are not designed for that.But a gust of wind will come along and cool them down.Hope this helps someone here.triffid

yes 10 x means ten times more sunlight.reflect it by mirrors,aluminum foil or mylar.It's possible that this would nice on cloudy days.triffid

This is a simple 2.5 kw solar backup system, I made in a day.

Good video.  At one time, I subscribed to Home Power magazine; entirely devoted to power generation by solar means and ways to present resolution to people's problems in this area, with testimonials and tutorials.

The magazine is available on newstands all over America.

Soon as my Mortgage goes through I will be doing some heavy research into using LASER dyes for the testing of Photovoltaic systems, looking for full spectrum Solar Cells from Lower Infrared on up to Upper UV. LASER Dyes can amplify photon counts for increasing efficiency of the photovoltaic system.

after researching this area I will also see about introducing these specific LASER dyes into Photovoltaic Aerogel forms for the same purposes and more including thin film systems.

You're welcome.
I might pick up a monthly edition occasionally and look at it for the articles.  Good magazine.  Lots of tips.  Money is tight for a whole prescription all at once, though.

This maybe of interest:

Photovoltaic Glass.

It appears it will be making it into the main stream consumer market.

Just imagine the possibilities.

Fascinating vision of future, and most of the things shown are possible to create already.

I think I came across this video last year whilst aimlessly surfing Youtube. It is nice to see that our august leader (Hartiberlin) picked up on it as well. ;D .


Mike Stritsky is an important pioneer in terms of domestic sustainability. His interconnecting solar array and energy conversion systems are the best I have ever seen. Even though he built it 6 years ago, no-one seems to have done a better job since.

What I learnt from it; in terms of sustainable energy and energy conversion, is that hydrogen storage is probably a bad idea. Hydrogen has low energy density (in contrast with other fuels such as petrol), in consequence of which he needed several massive hydrogen tanks to store the same amount of latent energy as you would find in about 200 litres of petrol. So the cost effectiveness of these large tanks is an issue, but I am also uncomfortable with the space they take up as well as safety issues arising from the (well documented) dangers of storing Hydrogen gas (think Hindenburg). Certainly not for the faint hearted. 8)


Also, let us be candid, it must have cost him hundreds of thousands of dollars, even with support from local businesses. But the Hydrogen tanks aside, this is a seriously cool set up. Thumbs up to Mr Stritsky for having had the vision to come up with it, and the ability and commitment to see it through.
