Well, it’s likely not an energy solution for single-family homes. But skyscrapers built with these light-collecting windows ...

Scientists have developed a brand new, clear coating that can be applied to any standard window to turn it into an effective ...

New discovery could turn any window into a solar panel - Researchers say breakthrough could supercharge clean energy ...

Cholesteric liquid crystal layers aid in electric generation without loss of clarity, according to Science Daily.

The material, called a colorless and unidirectional diffractive-type solar concentrator (CUSC), works by steering some of the sun’s rays to the edges of the glass, where photovoltaic strips convert th ...

Windows are often the weakest point in a structure’s energy efficiency, accounting for nearly 40% of heat loss in buildings. Traditional smart windows can regulate solar transmittance, but their ...

A European team is investigating a new type of thin film solar PV window that relies on microfabrication techniques to overcome the view-impeding opacity and unwanted coloring of earlier solar window ...

The research team’s semi-transparent solar concentrator can be directly coated onto standard window glass. It uses liquid crystal films to reflect and guide circularly-polarized sunlight to solar ...

Researchers are making significant strides in solar panel technology, particularly with perovskites, which can boost efficiency when combined with silicon. Artificial intelligence is being utilized to ...
