Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
With its tremendous potential to produce light, heat and power, the sun holds the promise of “free energy” forever. So, why isn’t solar power usage more widespread? Kojo looks at advances in solar technology, from the dish/engine systems to solar tube lighting, and finds out if the answer to expanding the use of the technology is more efficient systems or more financial incentives.
