On January 10, 2008 Bill MacDermott addressed an audience of about 30 at Webtego [1] in Cleveland, Ohio.
Bill is a solar convert - and a franchise distributor of Unisolar products.
Unisolar [2] is unique in the photo voltaic product line because Unisolar panels are pliant and flexible - like plastic sheeting. The Unisolar company has had a contentious history with its investors over the last 20 years - but its founder Stanford Ovshinski [3] has persevered in his belief that amorphous compounds, not crystalline silica, is the answer to earth's energy needs.
Unisolar now manufactures its photo voltaic vapor deposition sheeting like printing a newspaper - a mile or more at a time.
Thanks to all who helped organize and host this civic forum, including Betsey Merkel and Susan Altshuler.
