We’ve been talking storage, reliability, and the grid … but what if we could just make more clean energy in more places? This week on Everybody in the Pool, we look at solar in a whole new way.

My guest is Anthony Letmon, co-founder and CEO of Kardinia Energy, which makes ultra-lightweight, recyclable printed solar. Imagine solar that looks more like a concert poster than a heavy panel. You can roll it up, ship it anywhere, and stick it where traditional solar could never go.

We talk about:

  • Why weight keeps solar off millions of industrial roofs — and how printed solar solves that
  • Why Kardinia builds panels to last just five years on purpose
  • Coldplay’s global tour as a solar testbed
  • How printing solar could power disaster relief, data centers, even stadiums

It’s the solar solution you didn’t know we needed — and it could open up whole new markets for clean energy.

👉 Last week, we looked at grid stability with Wärtsilä. Next week, we’re going camping — with the future of RVs.
