I welcome the technology if they can find a cost-effective method of production and tackle other problems. It has a long way to go.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/inn ... big-thing/

Quote:
Over at Vox, Brad Plumer hashes out some hypothetical figures that make it clear why the project is gaining little traction:

"Back in 2010, the company assumed that a 12′ by 12′ glass panel would cost around $10,000. At this rate, covering all of our roads would cost $56 trillion ? nearly 20 times the annual federal budget. Even on a smaller scale, these panels are at least 50 percent more expensive than regular roads, and possibly more."

That?s not to mention the additional expense of developing technologies to store and transport the energy over long distances, Plumer argues.

"For the time being, there still aren?t many practical ways to store solar-generated electricity for hours when the sun isn?t shining. What?s more, electricity generated on remote roads would have to be transported to where it was needed. That would all require a lot of infrastructure."

Certainly, it is merely at the prototype level @ this juncture.
All tech. dev. starts like this without exception.
I like the way he thinks.

this "epically" word has been burning my cornea ever since it was posted. I have never seen the word used that way. Everytime it passes my eyeball my brain is screaming for an "s" in there somewhere.

I uninstalled flash from my computer due to all the security flaws that keep turning up in it. I never watch any of the videos anybody posts anyway.

:shrug:

Because you didn't describe anything about what it was, I didn't click through. I'll bet I'm not the only one.
