Post Hairy Solar Panels
Here's a mini Daily Maile article on the kid (he's only 18!) who made a solar panel using hair instead of silicon. There's not much info, but the biggest issue is that he claims Edison as his hero instead of Tesla.

Do you get good power out of your solar panels? I've never heard of anyone needing to clean their solar panels before, but it makes perfect sense.
