Gadgets, gizmos, and tools to help make you more productive in business

People have been looking for alternative energy solutions for a long time now. Solar cells are a pretty good way of using the sun's light to create energy instead of using fossil fuels and different types of machines. The main problem with these solar cells is that they are pricey and not everyone can afford installing a set.

Here is where Konarka Technologies comes in with low cost sources of renewable power cells. These guys think that we can build our own solar cells by printing them with an inkjet printer. The company has patented a printable solar film from light-activated Power Plastic® that is flexible and using solar cells as ink we get our lightweight, cheap and thin photovoltaic solar cells. So far the technology is available to large corporations, but we hope we'll get to see it working in our own homes, soon.

“This essential breakthrough in the field of printed solar cells positions Konarka as an emerging leader in printed photovoltaics.”
