| − | Ubiquitous PV here refers to easily-applied, durable and very cheap photovoltaic surface coatings, using inexpensive raw materials and manufacture processes (perhaps based on nanocrystalline {{wp|Dye-sensitized_solar_cells|dye-sensitised solar cell}} technology), that could cover the majority of roofs, pavements and roads. This vast distributed energy gathering area has the possibility of providing a significant percentage of the energy requirement of modern society. | + | #REDIRECT [[Energy#Ubiquitous photovoltaics]] |
