This popped up on my feed.
I don't for one minute believe their claim of 60 miles per day. Maybe on the summer solstice on a perfectly clear day perhaps. But even if it could provide 10 miles per day it'd be worth it.
I was under the impression current photovoltaic cells weren't efficient enough to generate that much power, and certainly not from the sq ft area of a small car roof compared to that of a house.
As above though. If it could even generate 10 miles in summer and just 5 in the winter it'd be an insta buy for me as I don't do loads of miles.
