Thermal Photovoltaics Breakthrough by MTPV Corp.
Thermal Photovoltaics Breakthrough by MTPV Corp.

Theoretical Efficiency of 85%!
Thermal photovoltaics has been around since the 1960s, but it never produced enough power to compete with solar thermal using steam turbines, or more traditional photovoltaic solar panels. But MTPV Corp. (which stands for micron-gap thermal photovoltaics, the name of the technology they're using) claims it can deliver "an order of magnitude" more power than regular thermal photovoltaics.
