    have they solve the silver usage in the making of the solar cells?  Reason for question, is there silver to fix the third world, or is this a first world thing?   third world still burns shit.

    https://www.silverinstitute.org/site/silver-in-technology/silver-in-green/solar-energy/

    90% of photovoltaic solar cells use silver paste. You can infer from that, that 10% don’t!
