That’s interesting, Vishal. But as far as I know, all solar panels already absorb heat and that’s actually one of the reasons their efficiency drops. Only around 15–20% of sunlight gets converted to electricity, and the rest turns into heat. So unless that heat is being used for something useful, just absorbing more of it doesn’t really improve performance.
