Global Warming Solutions, Inc., a developer of technologies aimed at mitigating the effects of global Warming , has developed a new and more efficient solar energy conversion technology. The new technology reportedly will increase efficiency by 11-15%.

The increased conversion efficiency comes about as the result of a novel organic polymer coating for solar cells developed by Global Warming Solutions. According to the company, application of this coating to the surface of a commercial solar cell increases the market value of that cell by more than 60 cents per watt, while raising manufacturing expenses only 10 cents a watt.

In addition to its high efficiency and low cost, the new technology can be easily integrated into existing solar panel manufacturing technologies.

Using these same technologies and methods, the company has already been developing efficiency-boosting laminating films for solar panels.
