An amazing break through in solar technology. If SUNRGI can really pull of 5 cent per kWh they will have an amazing market ahead of them. The next step is to see how cheap they can produce their solar panels for and when they can be made available for residential application. I would love to put a couple of these on my house.

Using SUNRGI’s proprietary technology it is possible to produce large amounts of electricity from solar radiation at a whole sale price of US $0.05 / kWh

“Solar power at 5 cents per kWh would be a world-changing breakthrough. It would make solar generation of electricity as affordable as generation from coal, natural gas or other non-renewable sources, without requiring any subsidy.”
