File No. 333-138910
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The following addresses the comments of the reviewing staff of the Commission set forth in its letter dated October 5, 2012. We respond to such comments as follows:
Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2011
General
1.
Throughout the filing we note disclosure that you are “developing a technology to produce bio-based materials from renewable plant sources;” however, none of these sources have been identified in the filing. With a view towards future disclosure, please tell us what renewable plant sources you are using in the development of your technology. In this regard, please also note the disclosure requirements of Item 101(h)(4)(v) of Regulation S-K related to disclosure of sources and availability of raw materials.
Response: The renewable plant source that the Company currently uses is Nylon 11, which is derived from castor bean oil. The Company’s current supplier of this product is Arkema, Inc. The Company does not currently have an agreement with Arkema for the supply of Nylon 11 and there is currently no other known supplier of Nylon 11. If the Company is unable to obtain Nylon 11 for its products, it will seek alternative options which may include similar biobased materials such as Nylon 1010 for which there are many known suppliers. The Company will include this disclosure in its future filings.
2.
We note that since March 15, 2012, the Company has posted in its website a number of press releases announcing important development in the commercialization efforts of the BioBlacksheet technology. In particular, we note (i) the sales agreement with Tomark Industries, (ii) the manufacturing agreement with Stevens Urethane, and (iii) the completion of all technical UL certifications necessary for the shipment of BioBlacksheets to solar manufacturers. We also note that disclosure of these material developments was not included in the first two quarterly reports, or reported pursuant to Items 1.01 or 8.01 of Form 8-K. Please advise. To the extent necessary, please include relevant disclosure in your future filings and file any material agreements as exhibits with your next periodic report.

Response: The Company will in the future disclose material developments in a current report on Form 8-K or in its quarterly or annual reports. The Company will include material agreements as exhibits with its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
The Company acknowledges that:
●
the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing;
●
staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and
●
the Company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
We trust that the foregoing addresses your comments. Should there be any additional questions, please contact the undersigned or our counsel, Marcelle S. Balcombe at Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP at (212) 930-9700.

Ladies

The

forth in its letter dated October 19, 2009, relating to the periodic reports of
BioSolar, Inc. (the “Company”). We respond as follows:

Item 9A. Controls and
Procedures, page 15
1.
We
note your statement that "our relevant officers have made conclusions as
to the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures at the
reasonable assurance level"; however, it does
not appear that you have provided the appropriate conclusion. In this
regard, please amend your Form 10-K to provide the conclusions of your
principal executive officer and principal financial officer as to the
effectiveness of your disclosure controls and procedures as required by
Item 307 of Regulation S-K. We remind you that the entire "Item" being
amended should be presented in your amendment to Form
10-K.
Response:
We have revised to provide our management’s conclusion that our disclosure
controls and procedures are effective. Please see Item 9A of the amended 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 filed on Edgar simultaneously
herewith.
Exhibit 31 —

the registrant. In this regard, please amend your Form 10-K to provide the
name of your company in paragraph 1, as required by Item 601(b (31)(i) of
Regulation S-K. Additionally, please omit the certifying individual's
title in the introduction sentence of the certification, since the officer
should sign the certificate in a personal
capacity.
Response: We have revised to correctly

the

replaced with the term "registrant";
and
·
you
have omitted the required language in paragraph 4 and 4(b) referring to

reporting.
In this
regard, please amend your Form I0-Q for each of the fiscal quarters ended March

We have reviewed your filing and have the following comments. We have
limited our review of your filing to the disclo sures pertaining to the evaluation of your

determine if you conducted the evaluation of your internal cont rol over financial

assessment and a conclusion as to the effectiv eness of your internal control over financial
reporting, as required by Item 308T(a) of Regul ations S-K. Where indicated, we think
you should revise your document in response to these comments, however, if you disagree, we would be pleased to consider your explanation as to why a revision is not

Revise your registration statement to provide consistent disclosure of the
