Solar power is mega important!

Recently, Google has sent a request to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for the United States (FERC) for a license to operate in the energy business, including trade in electricity.

Google continues to lead the development of non-core for myself, to expand the use of alternative energy sources. Last year, the company showed its own electric vehicle test, then presented the "green" data centers. Now Google says about working on a new "mirror technology" that reduces the cost of solar panels by 25-35%. The company's specialists are working with a very unusual materials, such as mirrors reflecting surface and the silicon substrates on which mirrors are mounted. As Google says that their main efforts are focused on solar technology termoenergetiki, where the sun's heat is used to heat a special substance that forms pairs and rotating elektroturbiny. Mirrors in this case, the focus sunlight reflecting and reinforcing it. Google.org is now working on the problem reduce the cost of heliostats - mirrors the fields that are automatically rotated by the movement of the sun. Google.org hopes within 12-18 months to create and test a technology that will make the mirror panels economically feasible if they are installed in the desert. The second front of Google.org - a gas turbine running on solar energy.
