I remember reading an article a while back about some experimental solar electricity that used nano-tubes and plastic. The researchers thought they would eventually be able to use something like an ink-jet printer to create the solar cells on a flexible plastic material. It would cost a small fraction of what the current technology is. It sounded promising, but was still years from getting out of the lab.
