How Nanotechnologies Will Disrupt the Electrical Grid


What do these research announcements mean? Here are three key points.

Solar panels, like microprocessors, will shrink in size and increase in power.

Second, areas that have marginal value for solar generation will get a second look as panels improve in their productivity and their flexibility to be adhered to non-traditional surfaces.

Third, distributed energy resource (DER) momentum grows as a result as more rooftops, landscapes, and other building surfaces harvest solar energy and proliferate in distribution grids.
