Surprising solar

New ways of getting energy from the sun.

The fast growth of solar power is a success story in the fight against climate change. However, in some countries progress is being stymied by opposition to large solar farms in the countryside.

But enterprising people are trying to keep the solar momentum going, by finding less obvious places where we can harness energy from the sun - like lakes, farms, car parks, office windows and even outer space!

Join Myra Anubi and William Kremer as they examine the untapped potential of solar power.
