The new PV-tech adoption paradox:
"solar panel resiliency has trumped higher efficiency, according to an international PV certification body.
For example, investment banks financing 10,000 rooftop solar systems or large power plants in the desert are very risk averse. "They don't make bets on technology. That's why a totally different technology coming into the market isn't typically adopted very well. This is part of the reason the majority of thin-film companies that were the future back in 2006 are now bankrupt."
