The designers anticipate that the product could be beneficial in developing countries, particularly those in which reliable electricity supply is a problem. It works by allowing sunlight to pass through a clear outer layer to a black inner layer which holds the water. By a process of heat transfer, the water is then heated up. The surrounding air between the clear and black layers then acts as insulation to help keep the heat in...
