It seems hopeful on the surface. However, according to the website, the only application so far is an experimental panel on its own lab in Jerusalem.
"It transforms just seven percent of the sunlight it absorbs into electricity, but he said that its efficiency would increase steadily in the coming years.
Scaling up the size of solar panels has been hampered by problems of metal corrosion in their grids. 3GSolar would not disclose the exact process it used to overcome the obstacle."
