Are transparent glass solar panel is threat to the energy industry?
For a while now, many have been working on solar energy. Using the sun as the primary source of energy would be ideal and also would cost much less. With the new solar panel that is completely transparent and as thin as a laminate, this is surely possible. They create a see-through solar cell to absorb the invisible parts of the spectrum. Although there is still much more work to be done in order for these panels to become efficient and completely reliable, the potential is amazing. These solar cells will easily be able to even allow phones to charge on their own.
If it is the case, then what would happen to the energy industry? How many jobs will be lost? Would there be any place for the energy industry at all?
