Cool Earth Solar: Solar Power from “Balloons”
This is a guest post by Tom Schueneman, publisher of GlobalWarmingisReal.com
Cool Earth Solar says it’s technology will “reshape solar energy” - literally.
One of the more thorny issues with any form renewable energy is collecting it. There is plenty of wind to meet our energy needs, the trick is “harvesting” it. The same goes of solar. As Cool Earth Solar’s CEO Rob Lamkin says, “If you’re going to replace hydrocarbons with solar, you’re going to need a lot of collecting surface.”
Cool Earth Solar, based in Livermore, California addresses the need for “a lot of collecting surface”, claiming the ability to cheaply harvest solar energy not in terms of kilowatts or megawatts, but gigawatts of power.
