I Love his style when he refer to other scientific concepts seems new and hard for a person to cover at all. Thanks is a small word for MIT and this great teacher.
Interesting first lecture and I'm excited to view the rest. After completing the course I hope to experiment with home based solar to electricity conversion systems. Perhaps I can even build a mini solar to heat energy steam producing system!
wonderful lecture by this professor. very informative and interesting. important thing is it was motivating. Highly eloquent and interesting way of speaking as well.
Who is this guy? How many languages does he speak fluently? What an amazing lecturer. I wish I had professors like this when I was in school. I'm absolutely engaged and interested to watch the rest. I wish I was in his course.
I HAVE HAD IDEAS FOR DECADES AND ON THIS TOPIC I HAVE A FEW. IF 50 YEARS AGO EACH SOLAR CELL WAS THE SIZE OF A SMALL CAR, WE HAVE HAD THE TECHNOLOGY TO REDUCE THEM GREATLY. AS THOMAS EDISON SAID OF HIS 1ST LIGHT BULB"IF IT CAN RUN FOR 7 HOURS, IT CAN RUN FOR 700( PARAPHRASING) BUT THE IDEA IN MY HEAD IS THIS SAME IDEA. IF WE CAN REDUCE THEM DOWN TO THIS SIZE( WHICH IS TOTALLY WAY TOO LARGE) THEN WE CAN MAKE THEM POSTAGE STAMP SIZED WITH THE POWER TO RUN A SMALL RADIO 24/7. ANOTHER IDEA I HAVE ON THIS IS TO MAGNIFY THE LENS OF GLASS TO CONCENTRATE A FOCUSED BEAM ONTO THAT CELL INCREASING IT'S POWER. THE LAST ONE IS TO USE NIGHT VISION TECHNOLOGY AS EVEN IN TOTAL DARKNESS WE CAN SEE PLAINLY BUT IN DAYLIGHT THOSE CELL COULD BE (PERHAPS) 100 X MORE POWERFUL...JUST A THOUGHT!!
Nice lecture. Those days, it becomes more and more clear that photovoltaic technology is going to reshape our life by reducing carbon emission and pollution. Meanwhile, as the cost of electricity from solar cells decrease dramatically, it will become an affordable way to make the developing community to get access to electricity.
I guess if the fosil fuel industry is going to deny climate change it only makes sense that the alternative energy proponents would just as vehemently argue for climate change. makes perfect sense.
9:30 I do just not agree. Besides russia is all on vkontakte, facebook isn't the best way to really connect people or develop a society. But hey, the video is from back in 2014, so i forgive that naiv move to represent the dev state of the world with fb

2021 Update -- Solar power produced >10% of the world's electricity, compared to the 1-2% estimates that are given in this talk for 2020.
54:12 sooooooooo satisfying that he perfectly aligned his pointing with the line of solar panels.

our company has help built the biggest solar power plant in south east asia.. 132MWp in Pollo Cadiz, Philippines
Very exciting lecture. A good speaker should be like this never boring or annoying. Love to watch the whole video.

Absolutely well done and definitely keep it up!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
41:05 Sorry.... but I lived in germany and electricity in germany is pretty expensive. Certainly more expensive than one euro. by all means.
54:40 Mirrors concentrating sunlight onto tower
watching this in 2024!
Very Good - Introduction to SPV
Very concise and helpful, thank you.

Excellent, thank you.
Is this lecture series still relevant to current technology?
How does the price of solar graph take into account the entire lifetime production of electricity by the solar power?
+harsh jain Did you find an answer to your question? I have the same question too.

Feel like a flight with prof
Does de professor speaks portuguese or is brazilian? His accent is so confortable to a north american
bom português...
Where this professor comes from?
i know man he is actuallly pronouncing these countries and languages properly lol
India
CTARA, IIT BOMBAY

Mmm free college courses on RUclips.
Facebook implies electricity
Good portuguese accent
Olha o Brasil!!! Ahhh, é pra dar mau exemplo... 🤡
Very useful :)

Lmao his attempt to say everything with the correct accent
boring as hell so much nonsense
Then go and listen to dumbass Indian professors :P
You must be in the wrong place mate.
