That new energy concept named a solar tower is able to generate enough electricity for 200,000 homes.In fact, this looking like a giant smokestack appurtenance would release no noxious fumes — just sun-heated air.

Some of these days was told that the demonstrated more than 20 years ago project has the basic design calls for solar collectors to warm the air near Earth’s surface in order to channel it up the tall central tower then. Turbines placed at the bottom make electricity from the updraft.

How about having a garden and some percent of the plants in it collect solar power? Tech-Temple is reporting that Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Mitsubishi Corp. and Tokki Corp. have developed a prototype solar cell module that realistically takes on the look of a common houseplant / Read here. The idea behind this invention is very cool infact. Flowers, artificial or not are incorporated in our world widely. With this kind of technology possible at normal price i think much people will rearrange their homes, garden or whatever with this kind of stuff
