Solar energy has long been a go-to solution for sustainability, but traditional panels have their limitations. They’re big, rigid, and, let’s be honest, not the most visually appealing addition to a ...

Windows are some of the biggest energy liabilities in modern buildings, yet they are also non‑negotiable for light, comfort, ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers created transparent solar windows that capture sunlight at the edges, cutting PV cell needs while keeping buildings visually unchanged. The device, called a cholesteric unidirectional ...

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 ...

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 ...

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, ...

REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ubiquitous Energy, the world leader in transparent solar technology — the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials all while ...

Innovation is a way of life in the solar industry. Companies have to find new ways to cut costs, improve efficiency, and build new form factors or risk being replaced by someone who is thinking about ...
