Windows are some of the biggest energy liabilities in modern buildings, yet they are also non‑negotiable for light, comfort, and design. A new class of clear materials promises to flip that equation, ...
Solar power has long been seen as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. But its everyday use still faces hurdles. Traditional panels are bulky, stiff, and completely opaque. That makes them hard to fit ...
Ubiquitous Energy and Michigan State University researchers have created a fully transparent solar concentrator, which could turn any window or sheet of glass (like your smartphone's screen) into a ...
Heliatek reached a new record in the efficiency of transparent solar cells. The latest development allows transparency levels up to 40% with an efficiency of over 7%. The company already holds the ...
New semi-transparent solar cells use 3D-printed pillars to adjust color and light transmission without changing the solar material, ideal for windows and flexible surfaces. Using a 3D-printed pillar ...
A reflection-based solar cell design inspired by periscopes achieves near-complete visible transparency and record light utilization efficiency, outperforming all previous transparent photovoltaic ...
An international research team has achieved a record efficiency for transparent solar cells. Researchers in the EU-funded CitySolar project, which includes nine partners from seven countries, ...
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 ...
