From TreeHugger comes this report:
Thanks to a merger, a New Jersey company hopes to be able to provide solar power at prices competitive with traditional electricity without relying on rebates. WorldWater & Power intends to acquire Entech, a manufacturer of concentrating solar photovoltaic technology. Entech has developed concentrator solar power systems, supplied solar power for space missions for NASA and installed ground-based concentrating solar systems in North America.
I am a proponent of solar energy, but am not going to go nuts over it (my former house in MA was active solar hot water and space heating; current house in NH is passive solar).
The above would be good news IF it pans out (and many things haven’t quite panned out over the years). But if it does? A good thing.
