Find the best solar options for your home and budget. Find the best solar options for your home and budget. Solar windows, also known as photovoltaic windows or solar glass, are a type of ...

Imagine you could put solar panels anywhere you'd put a pane of glass. That's the promise of solar windows, which could change the way we build. Claire Reilly was a video host, journalist and producer ...

Solar windows are sheets of glass with photovoltaic properties. This allows solar windows to not only let light into buildings but to absorb the sun's energy and convert it into electricity. While ...

Scientists from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology have developed a dual-band selective solar harvesting (SSH) window based on transparent photovoltaics (TPVs) and transparent solar ...

A research team in China combined solar power generation from kesterite thin-film generation with a nickel-cobalt bimetal oxide (NiCoO2) electrochromic window. The proposed prototype not only realizes ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Transparent solar cells, once a futuristic concept, are moving closer to reality thanks to a breakthrough from researchers at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU). On Wednesday, the team ...
