This startup says that they can grow 40% more food with solar panels printed on plastic. So when I met them at Inner Solar Europe, I had to learn more. What's your million dollar climate breakthrough? The company is called OET Technologies and they developed an organic autovoltaic which is a thin solar film printed directly onto flexible plastic designed specifically for greenhouses. Organic photovoltaic, based on organic semiconductors. This is different with conventional photovoltaics. Work on based on an organic, silicon technology. In order to produce this one, we have to make, introduce this clean technology, digital printed nanotechnology. But here's the interesting part. Plants don't actually use every part of the sunlight equally. Their tech more than 95% and to reduce filtering the near IR and IR up to 80%. Which means that most of our heat reduced. That means the greenhouse stays cooler and plants experience less heat stress. And instead of spending energy just to survive, they can spend it growing. And it worked with increased crop production by up to 40%. But that is only half of the story. That's a big deal. Across much of India and Southeast Asia, rising temperatures and unpredictable rainfall are making farming much more challenging. And no single tech is going to solve that. But if we can grow more food, use less water and generate clean electricity from one greenhouse, that's a step in the right direction. Because our population isn't getting smaller and our planet isn't getting cooler. So one final question. Do you think this tech can help greenhouses grow more food? If you want to work in technology like this, I've put the best green jobs in the link in my bio.
