I'd rather they get back to those transparent panels that suddenly vanished from the university page and all articles went poof.
That's a really cool idea. Natural lighting + power generation
I was hoping for it to be manageable on a greenhouse, though they hadn't published any specs on light quality after it passed through them, so no idea if it would have been good for the plants.
