This seems almost unbelievable to me, 70 watts from 1cm2 is too much.
From a square meter you could harvest 700KILOwatts, wich is enough to electrically 'feed' 250 homes.
So basically you could have a mini-electrical performance in your backyard if you could aford it, and have the space for the giant lens.

Now I can dream of field of solar panels underneath a gigantic, megaton-size magnifying glass.
Just what I needed today.

Fellow humans. Note this news piece down (for future reference). You can allso find the article with image and more details from the webby. The concept really is quite simple even if you focus light to conventional panel and cool it down. What I'm saying you can improve ordinary Solar panels efficiency in the same way. Get maylar (the stuff inside potato chip bag) or cheap mirrors to do the trick. The Inquirer could try improving their panels efficiency with extra reflected light.

I was only able to get my last solar system down to 0.30$ per kW/h Canadian(small residential system). Panels were just too expensive. Something like this will eventually throw everything on its ass. Imagine if you could get that down to 10c kW/h. I'd leave the public grid for the 1-2c a kW/h difference.

Nothing like growing your own food, making your own power.

sauce ?

When Browsing Sun City I noticed all Thermal/Solar Hot water panels, except at night panels are heated conventionally, REAL Expensive burden. Here Product cann't GO wrong(Unless GE Gets It).

Unforetuneately there is so much Electrical production its Beyonds Noahs Flood, Nor mere Torrent, its Ablaze of World in Electrical Signal, & for those items independent of Generator station, maybe Longer Lasting Test.

Just today I was thinking if only solar power was cheaper and more effective. Hopefully this will get to market soon and be what they promise.

Oh and by the way we could us an INQ's guide to solar energy...
