NexWafe has identified a gap in the market for the supply of solar wafers. The US market is dominated by Chinese suppliers and only one company, Qcells, actively makes wafers on the mainland. Nexwafe clearly believes it has an opportunity to capitalise. It has developed a proprietary process to produce ultra-thin, monocrystalline, low carbon footprint solar wafers that make photovoltaics more sustainable.

Geothermal energy has the potential to provide significant clean energy, but currently accounts for only a small portion of the global energy mix. Enhanced geothermal systems and deep-drilling technologies are making geothermal energy more cost-effective and accessible. Political divisions in the United States may hinder the rapid development of geothermal energy, despite its potential as a bipartisan solution to climate change.
