An editorial read from the Channel archive, kept in the relaunch for its coverage of 3d printed parts.
Imagine a factory small enough to fit on a desktop and efficient enough to produce 300k to one million solar panels per year, up to one every 15 seconds.

This pocket solar panel producer can change the way the world views electricity. - See more at:
