Solar windows, also known as photovoltaic windows or solar glass, are a type of building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) technology. Designed to look like windows and perform like solar panels, solar ...
Korean researchers have developed transparent solar windows that generate power day and night using sunlight and indoor ...
China unveils results after replacing solar panels with transparent photovoltaic windows, achieving up to 75% lower energy ...
Technology has changed a lot about your home. Your thermostat could be a smart thermostat, your doors might be unlocked by a phone and your refrigerator may have a touchscreen on it. But your windows ...
Perovskite solar cells are easier to make and customize than silicon ones, but it'll be a few years before you see them on your office window. In a nutshell, perovskite (say that 10 times slow) is the ...
Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Solar-collecting windows could make office buildings and skyscrapers more energy efficient, but harnessing solar power while retaining transparency ...
The hunt for a truly clean energy source that can replace our current fossil fuel systems is still underway. While we've seen breakthroughs in solar panels that don't need sunlight to generate energy, ...
We may soon be entering a whole new world of transparent solar panels that gather energy while doubling as windows, glass facades and even the screens of our portable electronic devices. These ...
In an important step toward bringing transparent solar cells to home windows, researchers have developed a way to manufacture their highly efficient and semitransparent solar cells. In an important ...
The tantalizing idea behind solar windows is that the vertical surfaces on the outside of just about any building could unobtrusively generate electricity. But first, researchers and companies need to ...
Solar-collecting windows could make office buildings and skyscrapers more energy efficient, but harnessing solar power while retaining transparency is a tricky engineering problem. A new study from ...
