Erthos hopes to do away with traditional solar panel farm designs by taking things minimal.

If successful, it could revolutionize the solar industry—and ease the concerns of understandably critical skeptics.Picture a standard solar panel setup: the photovoltaic cells framed and propped up above the ground using metal frames and protective glass cases. Currently, the designs required to physically encase and support solar panel farms comprise around 20 percent of their total price tag.

If engineers were to do away with them entirely, then overall costs could dramatically decrease while simultaneously cutting down on additional resource mining, production, and consumption. That’s exactly what Erthos aims to do, although there are a few reasons why this has never been tried at scale.towards issues such as the lack of airflow around a ground-installation scenario, which could hypothetically increase humidity and therefore attract organic materials like mold and fungus.

Erthos is pushing the boundaries of decentralization! Their minimal design could revolutionize the way we access solar energy. decentralize web3 stablecoins
