Solar Power can now be generated at NIGHT! It's really TRUE!

Video Description

Solar power is a fast growing contributor to our global electricity grids. After all that sunshine hits our planet during the day, some of it goes back up into the atmosphere, mostly at night time. Until now, harnessing that energy has been regarded as too difficult to do. But now a team at the University of New South Wales has achieved that elusive goal. So, can we look forward to 24-7 solar power?
