******************************************************************************************************
When: Wednesday, November 29th, 5-7pm
Where: Muddy Charles Pub, Walker Building 50
What: Stop by our famous energy nerd pub hour to socialize with members of MIT Energy Club from across the institute. Food will be provided. Moving forward, these events will be hosted monthly as part of our ongoing efforts to better integrate the Energy Club communities across the institute. (We will change venues from month-to-month so that undergraduate club members can participate on most occasions.)
More What: Each month we will propose optional energy-focused topics to stimulate curiosity and conversation. This month's topic: ***Solar***
a) Today, solar PV provides 1.3% of global electricity. Exxon projects this will be 5% in 2040. Bloomberg NEF says >15%. Who will be right?
b) Solar panel power output declines roughly linearly with cell temperature, ~0.5% for every degree ┬║C for silicon. Does this make Elon Musk's solar roof dumb? Or not at all?
If you would like to nominate a future topic, let us know!
