NEC intros solar-powered monitor battery

Chicago (IL) - Making an early mark in the green electronics market for the new year, NEC today announced the availability of a solar-powered system that uses energy from the sun with a reduced amount of regular electricity, and is compatible with the entire line of its desktop monitors.

NEC has teamed up with alternative energy firm Carmanah Technologies to create the system, which it is claiming makes it the first company to "offer a solar-powered system for all of its monitors."
