Solar energy is green. Solar panels are not. AI can revolutionize their design

Solar panels are manufactured at 2,000˚C, a temperature so high it requires fossil-fuel power.

The new designs may even bring their manufacture back to your home country, says Cathy Chen of Global Shapers.The World Economic Forum’s meeting in Davos concluded last week, with an agenda that included The Future of Energy.
