These solar lanterns, he specified matter-of-factly, were being distributed to women in the villages.
Most of the challenge, as we often see for solar cells, is just a matter of improving the energy conversion rate.
Besides being a useful source of dark matter, it may explain the solar-neutrino deficit (the gap between prediction and observation would be caused by a different mutation, from electron neutrinos into undetectable tau neutrinos).
With a solar PPA, consumers get the same low rate no matter how much power they use.
Adding flight time to the craft is a matter of choosing longer wings that can hold more solar panels.
Whether such solar steam projects will be financially viable for their developers is another matter.

Take a look at First Solar (FSLR) chart from this afternoon during which, First Solar lost 25% of its already depressed market value in a matter of two hours.
Whenever one of these companions passes close by, the pull of gravity causes both stars to send out jets of matter, again wasting the raw material of a possible solar system.
Even small scale consumers, exploring the possibility of adopting solar solutions give pause when talking about finally making a decision on the matter, preferring instead to kick the can a little further down the road.
FORBES: Green Energy's Crisis of Confidence in the Mediterranean
This may well underline the government's concern that solar FiTs are getting out of control and need to be reined in as a matter of urgency.
"When they come close to the Sun, this ice melts - solar wind blows this material out into space, so you get a tail of matter coming off the comet, " explains O'Brien.
Most financial talk treats systemic risk as a matter of exogenous events, sort of like comets that originate outside the normal operations of the solar system, unpredictably appearing, flashing across the sky and then suddenly disappearing.
The problem is that for many large firms, systemic risk is a matter of exogenous events, sort of like comets which originate outside the normal operations of the solar system, suddenly appearing, flashing across the sky and then disappearing.
FORBES: 'Systemic Risk' Is Not Event Driven, It Is Character Driven
That was when Danish physicist, Henrik Svensmark, decided to explore the matter after coming across a 1991 paper by fellow Danes Eigil Friis-Christensen and Knud Lassen that charted solar variations and global surface temperatures since 1860.
Low-level clouds are thought to matter more than high-level ones because they are more prevalent and because they are better at reflecting solar heat away from the Earth than they are at trapping it, blanket-like, as high clouds do.
