The extensive price reductions for photovoltaic (PV) power plants the last years have made solar energy a commercially viable option in many countries. In 2014 the average PV module price fell below $0.6 per W, down from $0.7 per W in 2013. In 2017 we see average module prices below $0.4 per W and large-scale PV power being offered at record-low prices below $0.03/kWh (in Chile and Abu Dhabi). The PV market has grown substantially, from about 40 GW installed capacity worldwide in 2014, 50 GW in 2015, to more than 60 GW in 2016. Solar power has become hot. Heliorite has developed solar tracking technologies and software for mapping solar insolation on and reflection from solar collectors and PV panels.

LENR (Low Energy Nuclear Reactions), earlier referred to as CF (Cold Fusion), are interesting and controversial phenomena that might be developed into a commercially competitive energy technology. Substantially more research is needed to understand LENR and learn how to use it efficiently. Heliorite has accomplished a number of LENR projects.

Heliorite has a long experience of developing software. The internet and mobile phones have revolutionized the way we communicate with each other. They offer social benefits but there are also associated social costs. We are dealing particularly with this issue in our most recent software project.
