SolarWindow: electricity from the sun and artificial light Bashny.Net

Window covering SolarWindow generates electricity from light — both solar and artificial. It can be applied on different materials: glass, plastic or even paper, and the manufacturing process is able to adapt flexibly to the specific needs of the construction industry.


"Transparent and a power generating SolarWindow coating is applied on large areas of skyscrapers and high-rises and can provide the building an additional source of renewable energy and to offset the cost of electricity," says John Conklin, President of the SolarWindow Technologies.

Since it is not entirely natural lighting, the window covering can be installed in places where the sun rarely comes out from behind the clouds. If you set SolarWindow 50-storey building, conducted by independent scientists to research the cost of purchasing and installation will pay for itself in less than a year and the benefits of coverages higher than similar panels made of silicon dioxide. "This will help to reduce CO2 emissions and stop global warming," said Conklin.





The coating is made from organic materials and can be transparent or colored. It weighs little and is easily applied using screen printing and inkjet printing or spraying, which makes it attractive for producers to be ready to use this technology in the production of Windows. published
