		<description><![CDATA[Sharp, partnering with battery specialist Eliiy Power, will soon start selling the world&#8217;s first storage battery for household electricity systems. These new batteries will allow houses with solar panels to store the power generated by the sun overnight (a full day and a half if necessary), allowing them to operate independently of a power grid.

		<description><![CDATA[Mauricio Clavero has designed a street lamp that is solar powered and only uses a third of its energy unless its built-in motion detectors sense someone walking by. The lamp is built using LEDs and can be placed in area with no access to electricity due to its attached solar panels. It comes in two [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Researchers at Idaho National Laboratory have developed a flexible solar panel able to collect infrared energy instead of the usual photonic energy. The panel uses an array of nano-sized antennas that are able to harvest 80% of the available energy (most modern solar panels can only harvest close to 20%). The possibilities are endless with [...]]]></description>
