Eden Full, a 19 year old Canadian girl attending Princeton invented the SunSaluter, which makes solar panels more efficient by orienting them to always be getting the optimum amount of light from the suns rays.
Two awesome things about this that make it affordable is that it is cheaper than the motor-driven tracking systems which rotate the panel as the sun moves across the sky throughout the day, and also that it can be built using local materials sourced in developing countries, thereby avoiding expensive shipping and import duties, not to mention creating job opportunities in the countries themselves.
Impressive.

I am looking to find out the cost and reward for a home solar panel and the amount of energy it can produce. Maybe some web sites that can give me detailed information.
