The solar paint is a replacement for solar panels, made to overcome the disadvantages of solar panels today. Just like solar panels, solar paint conducts a renewable source of energy. However, with this, we can also collect energy from our house walls. The solar paint works the same way as the conventional solar panel but is very efficient, environmentally friendly and extremely cost effective. The benefits carried using solar paint, includes being cheaper, easier to manufacture, no recycling issues and has wider coverage. Energy loss is also only 24% which is 76% more efficient than conventional solar panels.

In this period, I was able to learn that such inventions were created to reduce the cost of energy requirements in Campbelltown or even the world. I never knew these kinds of projects were present yet were not used to the extent that I thought they would.
