By focusing on a smaller area and device, Covalent Solar will be able to improve power conversion efficiency by 30% over the industry average. This reduces the installed cost per watt by 20% in 2014, and reduces the amortized cost of electricity to $0.12/kWh, hastening the onset of unsubsidized solar electricity competitive with the grid. Since the Organic Solar Concentrators come in sheets of transparent material, they can easily be fitted over current solar panels to increase extraction and efficiency of those devices. This breaks down an barrier to entry while enabling those with older technology to easily upgrade and improve return on investment.

The pre-Columbian ancestors of today's Indians used it. So did the ancient Romans, the medieval Arabs and many other preindustrial peoples around the world.
It's still widely used in less-developed countries, and it is increasingly popular in well-developed countries as energy shortages loom.

Masdar is Abu Dhabi's multidimensional, multi-billion dollar response to the global need for alternative sources of energy. Masdar is not pursuing alternative energy in competition with conventional sources of energy. Its work complements Abu Dhabi's leadership in the oil and gas sector. We have prospered in the era of conventional energy; we have learnt from it and know how to build on it.
