Solar cell efficiency typically tapers off at that end of the spectrum with virtually no light absorbed as it approaches infrared but the leaf design was able to absorb 600 percent more light.
Solar panel vein design leaf.
Smartflower solar produces unique ground mounted solar panel systems that include a sun tracker and a number of other high tech features.
But how exactly is it different how much does it cost and is it even worth buying.
Leaf vein inspired structural design of cu nanowire electrodes for the optimization of organic solar cells.

He then spent another 2 400 on solar panels batteries a charge.
Cu nanowire electrodes have drawn lots of attention recently due to their potential applications in touch panels organic solar cells and organic light emitting diodes.
He bought a 3 000 2011 nissan leaf and as you d expect for that price the battery was already heavily degraded.
