40 percent cheaper solar modules

It's all about the lenses?

Since I've been looking into some solar power options to add onto my house, I was very happy to find some solar displays at this year's NextFest.

In addition to Kyosemi's Sphelar solar cells, the ClearPower solar modules of Stellaris also caught my attention. Using small lenses to concentrate light, Stellaris claims to be able to reduce the need for photovoltaic material by two-thirds, which equates into about 40 percent cheaper solar modules.

Bright, very bright!
