This is the first entry to the Energy Team.

Bob, I put you on this one as I figured you would be interested.

I would really like to see some people here who has experience setting up
solar power and stuff like that, but we just need to wait for somebody to
volunteer, I guess.

Leon, how far did you get with the solar cell thing? I really have no idea
what photo-voltaic cells are made of.
