The humble butterfly could hold the key to unlocking new techniques to make solar energy cheaper and more efficient, pioneering new research has shown. By mimicking the v-shaped posture adopted by Cabbage White butterflies to heat up their flight muscles before take-off, the amount of power produced by solar panels can increase by almost 50 per cent, scientists say.img src=»http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/1nnhtRO2klw» height=»1″ width=»1″ alt=»»/
