New solar power window technology is finally edging into the commercial market, to transform buildings from energy-sucking structures into renewable energy generating stations.
Many people have theorized about the benefits of solar windows. ClearPower is making them affordable and reliable.
In a peer reviewed study, ClearVue photovoltaic windows have been proven to offer a return on investment in about one year.
See-through solar windows turn ordinary energy-sucking, carbon-spewing buildings into climate action heroes.
See-through solar windows are crossing the Valley of Death that separates labwork from the world of commerce.
See-through, truly transparent solar windows could open the door to a whole new clean power revolution while conserving farmland and natural habitats, too.
This third round of US DOE Solar Energy Technologies Office projects concerns innovations in manufacturing for solar hardware.
Just imagine how much solar electricity could be generated around the world if all the windows in factories and office towers helped to power the buildings they were installed in. Researchers in Australia are hot on the trail of a new technology that could make solar windows a reality.
Researchers at Princeton have developed a new solar cell that operates on near UV light to power smart windows that need no connection to a building’s existing electrical system.
