Heat? You need to cool the panel with water. Voila! Our system generates 900 BTU/h of thermal energy. Elroy, we, who are pragmatic people always go back to the basic tenets that underlie issues that, although complex in the surface, are in fact simple. Let me start with an absurd analogy just to say how renewables start with the wrong foot. Say the US was located in that area where Snowshoe lives and decided to compete in the space race with the USSR. Impossible! As it is way north away from the Equator to launch rockets. Renewables started in Germany!!! As overcast as Snowshoe state! Why? Because fear drove Merkel to shut down Germany's nuclear power plants one of the safest in the world in the wake of Tsunami caused Fukushima power plant disaster. Fear is no good policy my brother. Costs of Kw/h skyrocketed, and we know that energy costs are crucial for an advance country.

Granted, only laboratories can be the optimum places to test technologies under all conditions. But higher altitude are better, (less atmosphere between out space vacuum and the panel)
