rich komp, phd, is a physical chemist by training, and often teaches at
universities. he used to design solar heated houses before switching to
pvs, and wrote the book practical photovoltaics. he's president of the
maine solar energy association and his own little company, sunwatt.
he recently gave a workshop in london on hybrid solar panels (which
produce hot water as well as electricity) and installed one there.
he designed a small solar battery charger now being produced by
penobscot indians in maine, where he lives (once in a while :-)
on the coast in his off-grid house, using rainwater, vs a well.
he's been spending a lot of time in latin america lately, helping
landmine victims assemble hybrid panels, and so on.
his email address is sunwatt@juno.com.
