It ‘a small revolution that could increase the efficiency of solar panels and therefore energy efficiency. He discovered the team of prof. Mark Baldo at MIT: The secret is in a paint organic nature that should be applied on glass surfaces and allows the capture of infrared and ultraviolet rays that trapped in glass, which became like a big slab of fiber optics, flowing outwards. In practice, solar cells are only at the central part while the broader is covered by paint, currently stabilized at 90%, which provides for the capture and dissemination. We see a little ‘more in detail as is the process:

What ago. It ‘been shown a significant improvement at low cost in the provision of solar concentrator. With the new device the power produced by a solar cell increases by 40 times without the need to track the sun.

Why is it important? The sun is an inexhaustible source of clean power. The major obstacles to wide
dissemination of solar power systems are due to costs. With this system will improve performance and lower costs.
