Recently uncloaked startup, Sunrgi, announced a new photovoltaic design that blends chipmaking approaches, nanotech heat-dissipation fluid, optics, and manufacturing expertise to produce energy at costs matching those of fossil fuels. Once the follow-on technology is completed, for converting the dissipated heat to electricity, this new design will out-compete fossil fuels. (The carbon-burning cartels are probably working hard to kill this one.) The one downside I see so far is the use of hazardous pollutants in the production of the substrate, but this may be offset to some extent by the much smaller size of the components relative to the amount of electricity each can produce, and relative to the amount of materials required for a traditional photoelectric unit with comparable output.
