In this podcast Steve and Scott talk about a type of solar glass that contains a semitransparent layer of perovskite thin film solar tech that you are encouraged to put on top of your crystalline silicon modules to make a hybrid multijunction solar sandwich. The perovskite catches more of the blue side of the light spectrum and lets the red side of the spectrum that crystalline silicon likes through to get the best of both worlds.
This tech is made in Southern California with real rocket scientists.
Scott has a history with Flex, Nextracker and a lot or important companies in the industry.
