- Description: A new process that simultaneously combines the light and heat of
solar radiation to generate electricity could offer more than double
the efficiency of existing solar cell technology, say the Stanford
engineers who discovered it and proved that it works. The process,
called photon enhanced thermionic emission, or PETE, could reduce
the costs of solar energy production enough for it to compete with
oil as an energy source. Stanford
