solar-balloon.jpgThe new Solar “Balloon”  by Cool Earth is a concept that creates an “inflatable plastic thin-film balloon, which acts as a solar concentrator that, upon inflation, focuses sunlight onto a photovoltaic cell. The design produces 400 times the electricity that a solar cell would create without the company’s concentrator.” Liverpool is the site for the new prototype’s production plant. (Clean Technica.com)
