Response to "Nanosolar Technology"

The latest article I found was all about the company Nanosolar, which is developing nanosolar technology. Essentially, nanosolar is a new way of thinking about solar technology. Nanosolar technology sacrifices a bit of efficiency for a greatly reduced price, enabling solar panels to purchased by a much larger market. The company owns two factories, and requires many workers with higher education, especially in the engineering field. The panels produced by the company are really are really more sheets, as they are very thin, bendable, and easily adjusted in size. The driving idea behind this product is ultra low cost, with the panels selling for as low as twenty dollars per square foot. I have always felt that solar power is the way of the future, but the one thing standing between a world powered by oil, and a world powered by the sun has been the cost. This product completely changes that idea, and it could be the turning point in our search of a replacement for oil.
