<h1>Solar energy 'revolution' brings green power closer</h1>
<p id="stand-first">Panels start solar power 'revolution'</p><p>"The holy grail of renewable energy came a step closer yesterday as
thousands of mass-produced wafer-thin solar cells printed on aluminium
film rolled off a production line in California, heralding what British
scientists called "a revolution" in generating electricity." </p><p>"The
solar panels produced by a Silicon Valley start-up company, Nanosolar,
are radically different from the kind that European consumers are
increasingly buying to generate power from their own roofs. Printed
like a newspaper directly on to aluminium foil, they are flexible,
light and, if you believe the company, expected to make it as cheap to
produce electricity from sunlight as from coal."</p></div><br><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2007/dec/29/solarpower.renewableenergy">http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2007/dec/29/solarpower.renewableenergy
