Graphical Abstract

Point-of-use solar energy would generate the exact amount of energy any one individual needs, at the location where it is needed. Such a means of energy supply would create a revolution in society′s approach to energy use, and allow a more level playing field for all. This Viewpoint considers some of the key enablers for this technology.
