New Breakthrough Could Double Electricity from Solar Cells

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, they may have discovered a cheaper and more efficient way to produce electricity from solar cells. Researchers have developed solar concentrators that use dyed glass. They work in three steps:

1. Pushes captured light to the edges of the glass.
2. Concentrates the light.
3. Squeezes out more than double the electricity as typical solar cell output.
