Thread Name: BS: Oil or Wood Pellet ?
Subject: RE: BS: Oil or Wood Pellet ?
An Aussie has invented a new solar cell setup - uses lenses and auto directing motors - about 300 watt out of 18 inches dia bowl. Was mentioned on last Years ABC Inventors TV Show - Oz - can be scaled up to about 600 watt before the bowl rigidity becomes a problem - survives wind and hail apparently. At least twice as efficient as a standard solar cell setup.
