The quantum mechanics and economics of the conversion of solar light to energy in naturally occurring entities (plants and organisms) or
man-made solar cells do not as yet provide efficient and affordable power. In this talk I shall provide an exposition of the fundamental light-induced processes in biotic and abiotic matter, approaches to current photovoltaic solar cells, and discuss a new physical mechanism which may provide a viable means.
