Actually in the Heinlein short story "Let there Be Light" (found in the anthology The Man Who Sold the Moon) the main character develops a nearly 100% efficient, inexpensive photovoltaic cell and spends most of his time dodging assassins sent by the energy industry!

IIRC he finally releases the specs to his invention (anonymously) into the public domain.
