Viridian has developed a new approach to solar hot water for domestic properties. Current technologies don't make financial sense. Although most installers of solar systems quote payback on the initial investment in the 8-10 year range (which would be too long for most people), our survey of their costs and claimed savings typically yield payback of 30-60 years.

Unless you're a dedicated environmentalist or looking for a topic of conversation at your dinner parties most people haven't seen fit to bother with fitting these systems to their homes, and the industry remains small.

Viridian is pioneering a new approach which dramatically reduces the costs, and makes the technology desirable to the mainstream.
