Jordanian Activists Pilot Test Clear Thin Film PV Cells on Mideast Greenhouses
Abstract:
This past weekend I traveled to historic Madaba, Jordan at the first Middle East Green Bloggers Conference. Among this inspiring collection of environmental writers, professionals, and activists, I've just met a trio of Jordanian young innovators bringing a special variety of "thin film" technology to the Middle East.
If their pilot study in Jordan is successful, Zein, Sawsan, and Osama aspire to enable small farmers to sell solar energy to the Jordanian grid, contributing to both sustainable development and overall environmental wellbeing both in their country and the entire region.
