Solar panels shaped like tiny leaves



It seems true that the future of technological innovations rest over nanotechnology, but these tiny GROW solar panels by SMIT are remarkable. SMIT has designed it as a clean energy product and GROW is the patent pending hybrid solar and wind device. Inspired by the shape of leaves, these all panels together can perform better than their biological counterparts can, it is a solar panel but also it can capture energy from the wind and the fluttering of these solar leaves generates power. GROW is a modular and lightweight system which can be attached to any kind of building surface.
SMIT said, "We are exploring possibilities of using a leasing/take-back system for GROW so that we as the producers are ultimately responsible for its end-life and recycling."
