Our Vision: Bring Inexpensive, Clean Solar Energy to the Planet

This planet is facing a huge global energy crisis. In fact, energy may be the biggest technological challenge of the 21st century.

Here at Cool Earth, we believe that "going solar" is the solution. We also believe that the solar technologies developed must be inexpensive and able to scale.

Solar panels on rooftops are great, but they can't power industries or deliver enough electric power to many of the densely populated urban centers. So, we are creating and building our own solar power plants based on our proprietary concentrated-photovoltaic (CPV) technology. On a large scale, these plants can "reshape solar energy" by providing gigawatts of clean power at a scale that will make a difference. Cool Earth's plants will compete economically head-to-head with electrical plants fired by coal and natural gas.

No miracles or subsidies required…

We are not waiting for a miracle or yet another technical breakthrough. Our technology does not rely upon government subsidies, and uses no rare elements or expensive materials.

Our design is scalable, and our architecture minimizes resources, making use of inexpensive and free materials such as thin film plastic and air. This approach radically reduces material requirements as well as plant deployment costs and time.
