Extra efficient biosolar cells modelled on nature
Biosolar cells are an ingenious concept for converting sunshine into electric power. They are made making use of organic parts from nature. At their core are supposed photosystems: large healthy protein complicateds that are in charge of power conversion in plants, algae as well as cyanobacteria. Photosystem II, PSII for brief, plays a main function while doing so, because it can make use of water as an electron resource for the generation of electrical energy.
