Solar Window

In January 2010, New Energy researchers achieved a major ‘transparency’ breakthrough in the development of our SolarWindow™ technology, capable of generating electricity on see-thru glass.

For the first time ever, scientists successfully developed and integrated transparent, environmentally-friendly compounds onto glass in order to collect the electricity generated on our SolarWindow™ -- an important function. To-date, the collection of electricity was possible only through the use of a metal contact, which blocked visibility and limited transparency.

Our first-of-its-kind SolarWindow™ technology enables see-thru windows to generate electricity by 'spraying' their glass surfaces with New Energy’s electricity-generating coatings..

These solar coatings are less than 1/10th the thickness of ‘thin’ films and make use of the world’s smallest functional solar cells, shown to successfully produce electricity in a recently published peer-reviewed study in the Journal..
