SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. released scheduled video footage of its largest ultra-transparent SolarWindow, discretely generating electricity to power lighting and drive a digital multimeter.
Capable of generating current and voltage while maintaining the transparent nature of ordinary glass, the featured nine-square-foot SolarWindow was created using the company’s patented LiquidElectricity coatings.
These coatings transform otherwise ordinary glass into high-value glass which generates power from sunlight, indoor lighting, and even in the shade.
When installed on commercial buildings, SolarWindow products could achieve a one-year financial payback for building owners, according to independently-validated company power and financial modeling.
“Shareholders, building owners, developers, and architects have long-awaited the opportunity to witness first-hand our transparent SolarWindow products generating electricity,” said Jay Bhogal, CEO of SolarWindow. “Our largest ever SolarWindow provides a glimpse at the future of electrification. Beyond today’s success with electricity-generating glass, within reach is the promise of electrifying automotive windows and sunroofs, rail and marine applications and various consumer products and military uses.”
