Solar Concentrator News from Sunrgi

Sunrgi's technology for solar concentrators was touted today in by CNET (via CNET Twitter link for me). Interesting technology that has been rumbling for a while, but no product anouncements. Glad to see product announcements start. I hope that the developments are real and the $.05 per kW-hr are real also. Could be very interesting.

Have you checked out what Ausra is doing? They got some big $$ from Kleiner Perkins last year,

chad,

Thanks for the link. Ausra's technology is evolutionary to current power generation. Their focus is solely commercial power plants. Their focus on energy storage for overnight generation is interesting. I did not see how they were storing the energy, though.
