Time will tell if it becomes viable.
I have a sceptic opinion about it.
There are a lot of articles published about fantastic new developements, but reality is a different matter, and so are the claims about certain products.
Also the test results are measured often under perfect circumstances, clean panels, no dust, or mould etc.
Don't get me wrong, solar panels have their place, remote transmitter stations, lighting applications, traffic signs.
A thing what often gets forgotten is the energy needed to built a solar panel often outweights the electricity produced from it, so the term ""green"" doesn't really apply.
