Many Years Ago, I Told A Nuclear Power Loving (Eventually Employee) Friend that I Heard that China had Solar Panels that Charged Even Off The Moon Light… (piefed.social)

…But Since Then I Never Heard that Again.

I wonder if I should have posted this in a Solar Panels feed?

Was the source I heard from mistaken or does in fact China make Solar Panels that can charge from Moon Light, just as it does Sun Light?

Firstly, I'd like to say that the moon does not produce light. It only reflects light, like a mirror.

Secondly, I very much doubt that there are solar panels on earth that can generate energy from the light reflected from the moon. Not to any meaningful value.

Yes, that is true, but everyone do calls it moon light.

I thought so,

Thanks for replying,
