Unsurprisingly, that was the only application I'd directly heard of before. Something tells me a solar powered bikini isn't much for swimming though... |

wow, what a shitty gallery. It cuts off most of the text on the right. Anyway, I've seen some of those concepts, while others are new to me. I really wish there'd be some massive breakthrough in solar panel efficiency. Most of those little panels don't put out enough juice to be worth it. the airplane window one, for instance, is entirely worthless. |

UK gvt recently cut the incentives for building solar powered shizzle. Go world!

short term economic gain vs long term survival of the human race? Pfffft! My government sunk $56 billion into airport security that is useless and annoying. http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2011/12/unsafe-skies BTW, 'Satis being aggressively groped in airport' picture will be incoming at some point.  BTW, strangely enough, the airport pictured in the article I linked is where the groping I have pictured occurred. |

Where's our Satis being groped pic? And Derf, it's the same here. In the name of 'crisis' and 'the markets' (whoever the fuck they are) the government has done the exact same thing over here and massively cut into tax refunds for people and companies who want to install solar panels and installations. Also, any ecology tax cut on efficient cars has disappeared into thin air. Gotta love politicians and their great long-term views. A few years ago, one of our governments found an ingenious way to even out the budget for that year: it sold government buildings to third parties and rented them back, a so-called 'sale-and-rent-back' operation. Neeless to say this is a hefty short-term income with horrible long-term costs, ideal to 'create' money to even out a budget. I was talking to a friend yesterday and I told him "Why doesn't anyone seem to realize how insane that really is? How utterly criminal? Imagine your boss called you in and told you 'Phillip, I got a great idea to raise our yearly income: we sell our buildings and rent them back from the new owner! Brilliant!' You'd fall out of your chair. You'd think he'd gone crazy. But that is the reality of what happened there." I should move to Germany, which not only is entirely self-sufficient in its energy supply (very much unlike Belgium), but does so with a continued and aggressive policy on renewable energy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_ ... in_Germany
