Welcome to another edition of Your Green Voice, a podcast that aims to bring you news about solutions that will solve our climate crisis.

On Friday 3rd September 2022, Stuart McBain will Charge Around Australia in an electric car - but it won’t be a quick journey, it will take Stuart three months as he is using a new piece of solar technology - printed solar panels that you can roll up and put in the trunk of your car your.

Developed at Newcastle University in Australia by Professor Paul Dastoor, a world authority on organic electronics, this is the major test of these panels as they will be used in rugged and inhospitable areas.. 

We recently spoke to Stuart and started by asking him to explain the difference between these solar solar panels and traditional ones.

This interview was first broadcast on Southampton's 103.9 Voice FM during the radio show Your Green Voice which airs every Thursday at 2pm.
