Reuters: When Debbie Dooley, a Tea Party firebrand from Woodstock Georgia, makes the case for solar power, she doesn't rely on the usual environmental talking points. She speaks of property rights, national security and free market competition. Former Republican Congressman Barry Goldwater, Jr. casts his support for solar energy as a conservative stance against monopoly power utilities that "want to limit energy choice." Dooley and Goldwater, along with the right-leaning pro-solar groups they founded,...

Biologically Inspired Coating Will Improve Solar Panels, Researchers Say
2015-05-14 19:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: Key characteristics of moths eyes, which are anti-reflective, and lotus leaves, which are water-repellant, inspired a new type of glass coating that could significantly improve the efficiency of solar panels, say researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The extremely durable coating can be customized to be fog-resistant, anti-reflective, and superhydrophobic meaning it repels water drops so efficiently that they barely make contact with the solar panel surface, literally bouncing off and...
