Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Heading sounds great. While checking out the world news I came across this article regarding Aussie scientists cracking a solar barrier. Now if we can only benefit from it.

Now that, I would really like to see, mind you, I have achieved significant increases in PV output simply by placing reflectors to concentrate the sunlight on the panels. Most effective in the mid morning and mid afternoon hours when light is dropping off. I guess there is a saturation point over the noon hours?

Also add about 20% more if trackable (once again most effective as for the reflectors.
