Description: CoolEarthSolar.com has a patented idea for inflatable solar collectors that are much cheaper than polished mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto Photovoltaic chips. Their design is 400x cheaper than polished aluminum mirrors, will withstand 130 mph winds, lasts a year, repairs with tape, takes 15 minutes to change out, costs $2 per balloon, or 18 cents per watt, compared to $5 per watt for conventional installations, and has a minimal effect on the ground underneath the array!

Shoot that DAMN bird!

it is probably very simple to make them last longer... couldn't one dip them in some kind of plastic/material that could extend its life? or is it the photovoltaic parts that degrade over time?
• ravenise on 03-Oct-08
Whats that mean exactly.?
• bereaman on 01-Oct-08
if you could figure out away to make them last three to five years - they would sell.

expect to replace the entire lot each year. They seem to be trying to 'go for the brass ring' of utility companies rather than 'real people'. If they get it sold, the vulture capitalists will make a killing. If not, we may loose a promising technology.

They say it lasts about a year in the FAQ

So when exactly does it come to market? After going to the website, I found this fun FAQ: Can I buy coolearth's solar concentrator? How much? No, we don't sell our products or systems to third parties and consequently we don't quote our prices either on this web site or through email inquiries. $0.18 per watt does nothing for me if I can't get it. Somehow I don't see the utility company passing the savings on to me either. I wish there was an alternative to the $8 solar panel. distant future?

Where does the discarded balloons go? A landfill? Perhaps this system creates waste? Could the cost of recycling the balloons be incorporated into the final cost of the system?
