Stop thinking horizontal: the fact is we're running out of space, so why not starting designing for the next usable space? SunHope provides the design for solar balloons--a.k.a. low impact, off the grid, miniature power plants. Research show that one 10ft balloon could provide around 1 kilowatt of energy--equivelant to 25 square meters of solar panels! Furthermore, with its comparatively low cost and low maintenance life, these sun harvesting balloons could be implemented on a residential scale.
