This brings to mind a local company (SF Bay) with an add-on product for solar cells which they claim increases the power and efficiency. The technology uses a pyroelectric coating for the cells and a feedback mechanism.
The company is UltraSolar. It has been mentioned before here, but it may not yet be ready for prime time as initial products received complaints. http://www.ultrasolar.com/files/Videos/QB%20Demo%20Video.ogv http://www.ultrasolar.com/technology.html From: Blaze Spinnaker http://rameznaam.com/2016/09/21/new-record-low-solar-price-in-abu-dhabi-costs-plunging-faster-than-expected/
