Nice Q, I like it too much!
What makes you an expert on securities law? What are your credentials? I think Steve and his lawyer are also well aware of securities laws.
As everyone knows…… Our research and development had always been done through our university's, Rice, KAUST and ASU. As for our headquarters, we have always had a physical address. You can find that on the website and filings.
You are the one interpreting it different than everyone else; so you're the one putting the slant on it. In addition, in order to do your own due diligence on Google, you first need to spell the words correctly, maybe this is your problem.
How exactly do you slant a form D? It is cut and dry; it is a legal document.
Why so negative? Are you worried about losing your big $5000 investment? I will buy you out just to shut you up.
A day we must explain!
The day started off like any other,
but in a fleeting moment there was one less mother.
From a world that shares all this pain,
it's a day we must explain.
It was unimaginable all the lives he took,
all the beautiful people of Sandy Hook.
No more excuses, it can't be in vain;
it is definitely a day, we must explain.
But out of the horrors humanity was saved,
as many rushed in and Heroes were made.
Scholars and Clergy couldn't predict the pain;
they said it was a day we could never explain.
Religion and Gun Laws did not have a part;
family and home is where morals start.
But through all this tragedy, and for the innocent who were slain,
it is a day we must explain.

Free I didn't even see your post. You are 2 hours ahead of me, 5:30 AM my time.
I can say a little more.
Here's to health, wealth and the end of stealth.
Happy Holidays to all.
It looks like in every aspect, we are ahead of the competition. (Solar cell efficiency, cost, mass production, etc.)
Just got out of Nanoco's lecture, they state at present, they can produce 25 kgs a year; they hope to scale up to 400 kgs a year in the near future, and eventually one day 4000 kgs per year.
This is no where near enough to supply a GW of solar.
If this is our closest competition, there is no competition.
I met with Art, Dr. Bob, Crunch 55, and saw Bob speak on our Company and it's technology.
Bob also said to stay tuned for exciting news.
Hey Barrymore. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I hear you are a man of wealth and influence, but if you don't call, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
Hey Barrymore. Call me. Have you forgot.
My name is Joe. I own Green Valley Pest Control. So that is what I will answer.
Barrymore. If you call it will be worth your time. This is not BS. EX.
Barrymore. Please call me 16048619530. Ex.
Hey Cheese. I was hoping one of you tech guys could tell me if this was any competition for us.
Spectrolab to Mass Produce Most Efficient Solar Cell
Posted in | Fuel Cells | Green Energy | Renewable Energy | Solar Energy
By Cameron Chai
Spectrolab, a wholly owned subsidiary of Boeing (NYSE:BA), has started the mass production of its newest terrestrial solar cell, the C3MJ+. With an average conversion efficiency of 39.2 percent, C3MJ+ will be the industry’s highest-efficient cell. These (updated triple-junction) devices have an average conversion efficiency of 39.2% at a 500-sun concentration.
This year has seen the first grid-connected CPV installations on a megawatt-scale, and with companies such as Amonix investing in volume CPV system manufacturing facilities, it is likely that 2011 will witness significant market growth for the technology as its reliability is proved out.
CPV relies on multi-junction cells produced by the likes of Spectrolab, its US rival Emcore, and the German company Azur Space. While the individual cells are expensive to produce, the fact that they can handle concentration ratios in excess of 500 suns, and perform better in hot conditions than conventional PV materials, means that they are already able to produce relatively low-cost electricity in the most suitable conditions.
Russ Jones, the director of CPV Business Development of Boeing’s Spectrolab said that, “These more efficient cells are drawing interest from a number of current and potential customers. Last year we set a new world record for efficiency with a test cell that peaked at 41.6 percent. We now have entered production with essentially this same technology and plan to deliver the first of these 39.2 percent efficiency cells in January.”
That is an improvement of 0.7% on its existing “C3MJ” cells (the product nomenclature reflects the three junctions within the cell’s structure, which enable it to capture much more of the solar spectrum than conventional silicon or thin-film cells).
The design of the C3MJ+ cells is said to be similar to that of the record-breaking 41.6% device that Spectrolab announced in 2009. That lattice-matched cell showed its maximum efficiency at a concentration of 364 suns, slightly below the typical concentrating photovoltaics (CPV) industry standard of 500 suns.
Since then Spectrolab’s world record has been broken by Spire Semiconductor, which revealed just last month that it had produced a 42.3% efficient cell, which also delivered 42.2% at 500 suns.
However, for commercial purposes what actually matters is performance of the average cell in production and not just a record-breaking headline and Spectrolab’s move into volume production is good news for CPV system builders, as it would mean into higher energy production and lower cost per unit of energy generated.
“These more efficient cells are drawing interest from a number of current and potential customers,” said Russ Jones, director of business development at Spectrolab. “Given the news cells’ close similarity to our existing production cells, we believe that our current C3MJ customers will be able to easily upgrade for more efficiency.” Spectrolab reports that it expected most customers to adopt the new cell rapidly, while a new 40%-efficient cell (C4MJ) will be launched next year. "We have seen a substantial increase in demand in 2010 as compared to 2009," the company said. " We expect to deliver about 30 MW of CPV cells in 2010 and as previously stated we expect demand to be as high at 100MW in 2011” Jones added.
As far back as 2006 Spectrolab was achieving conversion efficiencies of over 40 percent in the lab with its high-efficiency multi-junction concentrator solar cells and it reached a peak of 41.6 percent with a test cell last year, setting a new world record. The company’s newest terrestrial concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) cell, called the C3MJ+, uses essentially the same technology as its record breaking test cell and follows on from its C3MJ solar cell in production since mid-2009 which boasts a conversion efficiency of 38.5 percent. The C3MJ+ solar cells
Spectrolab claims the title of the world’s leading supplier of solar cells for satellites with its cells supplying power to around 60 percent of satellites currently in orbit, as well as the International Space Station. Boeing hopes to transfer that success to the terrestrial solar cell market with the new high-efficiency solar cells that are expected to be available from January. It is expected Spectrolab will achieve a 40 percent average production efficiency for terrestrial solar cells in 2011.

Hi, new to the board, I'm quite impressed with all of the research studies and especially all of the business alliances this company has made.
Hey Sullivan, I actually do no more than you do. I have just short of 300000 shares, and I know over the next year if you just hold on you will be very happy. If you don't have faith, I will buy the rest of your shares off you at 10 cent each. X.
To all the nay sayers. Unless another company has quatrapods, we have no worries. We have the best, most efficient, stackable technology available. Let's just wait for the 10Q/K and shut up until then. The Exterminator.
It's not us. It's poly silicon.
Ditto. It's a good thing we don't have to pay for his info.
Obviously that TV will be made with our new technology.
Thanks for the info DM. I don't know where you find this stuff. It takes me hours to find scraps. On a side note, this board is so nice and peaceful.
So correct me if I'm wrong. Solterra will convert the energy right at the source to AC and send it out to a grid like hydro electric. Is the conversion a huge cost?
Vanadium batteries are the future. Have a look at ENZR. Solterra will need somewhere to store all their energy.
Ignore my last post; it was old.

Barrymore. Back yourself up with facts. Name the company already and earn some credibility and respect. This may change the whole dynamic of this board.
PV do you ever sleep? You are probably an experimental tetropod robot designed by Squires and the boys. LOL.
DMC come back. We love your posts. This was not a good day. No offense to premenstrual women, but that's what we've all been acting like. Real men learn from our own mistakes, which many of us have made. Everyone has the right (freedom of speech) to say what they want, positive or negative. The negative keeps us humble. I wish I could contribute more to this board like many of you. I do consider myself mildly successful (I own a pest control company, hence The Exterminator). I am 46 years old and have been married for 26 years. I have invested in many stocks, some good, most bad, according to my wife, but this is one time after all the research done, mostly by people on this board, that I am 1000% confident in this company (hopefully two). I just don't see any downside.
Thanks to Crunch55 and TrevorBC for letting me know about this company.
PS. Let's all take 10 deep breaths and start a whole new day tomorrow and this is coming from a guy who had a heart attack last year followed by a 5 way bypass. Just remember, family and friends are our greatest riches.
Ballard, why are we using them as a reference? Their old news. I hope this company has a whole lot more substance. And has anyone checked Ballard recently, no where near $100. I took a bath on them.
Barrymore, it's me The Exterminator. Your are replying to the wrong person. You gave me your email and I gave you the tip. Just a little bit of advice, I have (had) a friend like you, very smart, but he had the attention span of a 3 year old unless you were talking about him, because he had his head so far up his own ass. He went from a net worth of about $30 million to $5 million. Now he he's just like the rest of us. Please pay attention.
You gave your email and we agreed to share, but I never heard from you.
Barrymore, I gave you a tip and I haven't heard back from you. Why don't you tell me the name of the company you took global. Greenvalleypest@shaw.ca.
