Default Re: Additional Source of Power

There are other options that don't involve solar panels, like the new flexible solar films that some nanotechnology companies are now starting to sell... they are less efficient but A LOT cheaper, and can be placed onto any surface without affecting its aerodynamics: http://www.nanosolar.com/

In Spain we've got LOTS of sun. When I go to work I could leave my car parked under the sun for 10-12 hours and then have enough AC to get home. Besides, the solar panel would also contribute passively to reduce the heat inside the car.
