 Weird Invention Saved His Life During Hurricane Sandy 





























































P is used to produce electricity (sometimes called solar thermoelectricity, usually generated through steam). C
oncentrated-solar technology systems use mirrors or lenses with tracking systems to focus a large area of sunl
