Well, it’s actually moving in the right direction, with more good things coming our way. For example, New Energy Technologies Inc has improved its manufacturing technique by making vacuum deposition at low temperatures instead of […]

Thanks to scientists from New Energy Technologies, Inc and the NREL, if windows have a see-through wiring system attached to them, they’ll be able to harvest and conduct electricity. The technology is especially attractive because there’s no way […]
