Freegrass,
I think this is a big oversight but have no way of verifying it. The current solar panels require a cooling source, H2O is a necessity to keep the panels and cells from overheating. This is supported in your post - "These higher energy photons will be absorbed by the solar cell, but the difference in energy between these photons and the silicon band gap is converted into heat (via lattice vibrations — called phonons) rather than into usable electrical energy." I believe the TQD's solar cell panels will be coolant free, which to me would be another huge plus of the TQD solar system from Solterra. That means they can be placed anywhere! Arrid desert where there is no water source where current silicon cells can't go, we could go. I haven't been able to verify this from Dr. Jabbour but if anyone knows I would be interested in hearing your thoughts.
Waiting for the day.

Next press release? Drawing a blank: funding, another alliance, CEO, facility expansion, contract, IPO/Reverse merger, I don't know.
