Solar Energy Forum I have no doubt that we will be successful in harnessing the sun's energy.... If sunbeams were weapons of war, we would have had solar energy centuries ago. ~Sir George Porter

Default Solar Cheaper than Coal - ???

Solar Energy Cheaper than Coal - ??? Apparently. Directory:IAS - PESWiki

IAUS’s unique thin-film solar panels have a solar insolence transmittance efficiency of nearly 92%- virtually the highest transmittance physically possible of any material. These breakthrough solar panels have shown a conversion of solar energy from the sun into temperatures of over 1,300 degrees F.

IAUS's new solar technology is the first to offer the possibility of competing head-to-head with fossil fuels for both electricity and gasoline production. It costs less now than the World Government's goal for solar power cost per kilowatt by the year 2020. IAUS's unique thin-film lens focuses the sun's energy, producing super-heated steam for power generation. IAUS's panels are inexpensive, efficient, and require virtually no maintenance.
