I was watching Earth X channel’s Earth X News show when they had a segment about how some higher educational school’s (from what I remember) scientist have figured-out how to replace some of the rare Earth metals that make solar panels bad for The Livable Earth. The problem is they do not say the name of the scientists, what higher educational school & location that this happened at.
So created this to ask you all, does anyone know-
The name of the scientists,
What higher educational school
&
Location?
Solar Panels that Use Peanut Shells, Instead of Some of The Rare Earth Metals.

I haven’t seen that episode and I unfortunately can’t provide the specific answer you’re looking for but there does seem to be a good amount of of people doing research on using organic materials like peanut shells for energy related project and peanut shells are considered low cost and easy to source. There’s a teen in Zimbabwe who worked on harvesting energy from Peanut shells . Scientists in Canada created a new capacitor from Peanut shells. A a physicist from Cheikh Anta Diop University in Senegal has done work on energy storage using Peanuts. There’s been research into utilizing Peanut shells for solar desalination and a town in Argeinta uses them to keep the power on so I’m sure this is something we’ll be hearing more about in the future

WOW, that is all awesome, Thank you!!!!! That is the first-time I have read all that before, I knew there was a reason that while eating too much Peanut Butter is bad for me & Walnut Butter is a lot healthier nut butter to eat, I still eat enough to support a community of Peanut farmers.
