Israel Startup Rolls Out Tiny Solar Panels for Smart Electronics
(Bloomberg) Anna Hirtenstein - Jerusalem-based Israeli startup 3GSolar Photovoltaics is implanting tiny solar panels on electronic devices that allows the devices to sustainably generate their own power. "Our cell is made specially for indoor light and low light, it's not a typical silicon solar panel that works outside," said CEO Barry Breen. Many smart-home devices run on batteries that need replacing every year or so. 3GSolar's cells would last 10 to 15 years.
