new report here of a solar water heating system to beat all solar water heating systems... to make electricity using solar generated solar heated steam via a graphite based heat store.

they reckon it can produce at 40% of the cost that EAC sells at.

Hope it works.

Are you kidding me? This technology is more than 20 years old.

So why is not widely used?

Can it be economically built small enough to sit on a roof and run a whole house?

Nah, I think you will find it is big stuff.

It's much better to opt for a 6 kWe PV and an efficient electric heat pump.
