U.S. based Suntrof Systems LLC has just announced their new Alubond Solar Collectors and it sounds like the collectors could have a major impact on the solar power industry by reducing the cost of production by 50 percent.
Among the drawbacks of exploiting solar power are the high costs and the long time before the investment is recouped through energy savings. If the Alubond solar panels really do cut the cost of installing solar panels by half then this could be the boost the solar power industry needed.
According to Suntrof Systems LLC the Alubond solar panels don’t require heavy mirrors. They are exceptionally light and also offer a 20-year warranty on exterior performance.

almost sounds too good to be true. it would be great for the industry if they could do this. even though solar has come down in price a lot, it is still beyond the reach of many families, especially in this economic climate
