I have so many questions! While digging into the Applications section these look like conventionally-sized CMUs, the image on the front page looks like panels/blocks that are large enough to require a crane to lift? If that's the case, how fragile are they?

CMUs and other pre-cast concrete "lego blocks" have intrigued me for a long time. These look like they've got more robust interlocking features than conventional cinderblocks too? The idea of being able to order (even without the solar) say 8'x4' pre-cast "CMU-style" walls, have them show up on a flat deck, stuff rebar and mortar into ready-made holes, and grout between the blocks seems like it could dramatically speed up a lot of exterior construction. Being able to get them ready to wire for solar is delicious icing on the cake!

They don't need a crane. Maybe a confusing rendering for a future idea.

They make tiles and cinderblocks, and yes, they have some interlocking features. And yes, the idea is that installation will be way easier and cheaper than first building a regular wall and then attaching vertical solar to that after the fact.
