I was talking to someone on the weekend about the potential of solar power and reminded of this awesome short film from our friends at Solon (in the interest of full disclosure this German company invested in us).

The conversation always goes the same way, which is:

1. Is there enough solar power to make a difference?
2. Do solar systems survive all kinds of weather?
3. What’s the evidence the technology will last?

The answers are yes, yes, and how about the following: Worldwide, home solar systems power 1 million families’ houses. Or take our communication infrastructure that depends increasingly on solar power – whether it is satellites powered with solar arms or the ubiquitous repeaters and telecommunications towers – and has done now for decades. The reality is that this is a bomber business with a great core technology.
