	*Open source swarming would be useful here, if we accelerate PV manufacturing. We could get shit tech today, and bootstrap R&D for the highest performance. What is the limiting step in PV manufacturing? Could distributed production help? Best idea is perhaps an open source facility, and see how fast we can ramp up. If a facility costs $4M for 5MW - selling panels for 22 cents gets $1M revenue, so payback would be long. Maybe 20% margin. 20 year payback.		*Open source swarming would be useful here, if we accelerate PV manufacturing. We could get shit tech today, and bootstrap R&D for the highest performance.
