Carol Cain: Panels may brighten job market | Detroit Free Press | Freep.com: "Bob Stempel is an engineer and forward-thinking car guy who worked hard to become chairman and CEO of General Motors before being forced out 17 years ago amid economic strife.
Stan Ovshinsky is a smart, though sometimes prickly, self-taught inventor, who at 86, remains light years ahead of most as he continues to create innovative ways to power cars and homes.
Working at Ovshinsky Innovations LLC in Bloomfield Hills, the two men have started a venture to create a lighter and more-affordable solar roof panel that may put it in reach for the average person.
'This is about creating jobs,' Stempel, 76, told me during an interview.
Ovshinsky, who has more than 300 patents, created the panel. They hope to entice investors when the product is complete."
