“This video looks at what the future might become if we do not start using clean energy resources. THe greenhouse effect is well known and we must do something about it today. THe video looks at how we can make solar panels more efficient. A series of experiments were performed and I found different ways to improve power output from solar panels. This included, the angle of incidence of the sun, dust on the panels, water on the panels, temperature effects and the creation of the “REFLECTACON 3000″ which significantly improved solar panel output. It is made as a reflection from the future to look back at our world today and what we can do with current solar panels.”
