Seriously, get out of here with your spam. By the way, Engadget is nofollow, so you aren't even generating any indexed backlinks to your site. Scraping for traffic everyday is not a good strategy.

However, the recent protests against new coal burning plants show that the external costs of polluting and being energy inefficient over the long term actually are being internalized, both by a general constituency of local residents who can influence all sorts of (non-tax) regulations, and by the (potential) customers themselves who can choose not to plug into the grid.]]>Dec 19th 2007 1:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/Dec 18th 2007 2:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/
In a place like Cleveland where we only see the sun for less than 120 days a year solar power just isn't effective. While this is a great thing to cover the roof of every Wal-Mart, schools, and other large buildings to add a few megawatts to the grid it isn't good enough to take us off of other fuel sources.]]>Dec 18th 2007 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/ ^^^^^^^^^^^(haha - sorry, I'm from Cincy!) ]]>Dec 18th 2007 2:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/Dec 18th 2007 2:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/Dec 18th 2007 2:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/Dec 18th 2007 2:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/Dec 18th 2007 3:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/Dec 18th 2007 2:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/

Spray paint my kayak with it and I could carry a small electric motor for the times when I'm going against the current or just want to kick back for a while.

Why not paint your car with it and use it to recharge your batteries for an electric car.

And for those that asked, from what I've read about from the company its currently 6.5% efficient looking at a goal of 20% in the near future.

And as for Ugly? Excuse me? If you ask me a nice blueish reflective panel is more pleasing to the eye than a black slate tile. And its going on the roof of your house. Not in your bedroom.]]>Dec 18th 2007 7:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/
But this is worth it - when do you look at your roof anyways?

Lets move along with progress here - yes there are newer panels coming out - but the resources and materials required appear to be greater than this process - a more efficient production method and a reduction of the bulk associated with current panels deserves some attention.

If they're talking bullshit, I don't think the companies, that have put down the money, are going to be associated with them for much longer.

Of course you can call it vaporware - that's most likely how they transfer the layers to the aluminum (aluminium) :p

To the naysayers and poo-poo-ers, having a felxible solar panel greatly increases the adaptation rate for other products for solar. And that's a good thing, flexible panels or not, anything that you can purchase once, that generates power while there is some sunlight, is worth it now, and it will be worth it for the future after the original owner passes it on.

What's the lifecycle of a solar panel anyways?]]>Dec 18th 2007 10:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/nanosolar-begins-shipping-world-s-lowest-cost-solar-panel/
