Did you just cut-and-paste from the article comments? Posted by: quilner | 09/10/09 | 12:28 am Some questions about Nanosolar’s $1-per-watt claim: What happens at night? What happens when its cloudy? What happens during the winter-time? Does Nanosolar’s $1 per watt investment guarantee a consistent 24/7/365 source of electricity? Does Nanosolar’s $1 figure include the cost of installing transmission lines? Does Nanosolar’s $1 figure include the cost laying cement for a power plant, assembling the cells into solar panels, installing the panels, and commissioning the power plant? Does Nanosolar’s $1 figure include the cost of building base-load generating capacity to provide electricity for when the sun doesn’t shine? Installing electrical transmission lines costs about $1 million per mile. Most PV power plants are located far away from demand centers. This sounds like vaporware.
