We are in desperate search of clean renewable energy and out of all available prospects, solar energy is surely the best thing we have. The drive to put a hold on the continued damage we have so enthusiastically done to our climate and environment since the Industrial Revolution is recently seeing positive results - big tech companies are investing more time and resurces in developing solar energy technologies. Panasonic has been recently awarded the IEEE Corporate Innovation Award for developing HIT. They have improved efficiency of heterojunction solar cells up to 22%, which is actually quite an achievement.
I still see solar energy being used as much as conventional sources as a sweet but distant dream. Projects like this one in the Maldives are a bright start, but that's all. The technology is still new, undesirably lacking efficiency, disturbingly expensive, and most importantly, still not as popular as many would like to assert - specially with governments and corporations who thrive on the milking of the fossil fuel industry. Maybe all we need is a worldwide 'Energy-Source Spring'!
