The solar window maintains high transparency while delivering stable output regardless of time or weather conditions. It can generate power 24 hours a day using sunlight during the day and indoor ...

A man holding a cup of coffee holds back a curtain to look out a window. - S B Stock/Shutterstock Sunwarmed surfaces, sometimes too hot to touch, give us everyday evidence of the energy put out by our ...

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 ...

Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have created semi-transparent, color-tunable solar cells. Interestingly, ...

Researchers from the Technical University of Madrid in Spain have developed a building-integrated PV (BIPV) module that acts as a smart blind that protects building users from direct light, but still ...

Semitransparent solar cells with natural looking color and strong heat blocking offer a realistic way for windows to generate electricity and cut energy use in large buildings. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...

Imagine a field of solar panels floating silently in the endless day of Earth’s orbit. Unlike their terrestrial cousins, this space-based solar array never faces nighttime, clouds, or atmospheric ...
