Solar Windows to Power Buildings
You've seen solar panels placed on buildings by now as this technology has been around for a while, but could you imagine a solar powered building? You could potentially witness this within the next 10 years, thanks to our breakthroughs in organic photovoltaics technologies. By developing a process that produces much more flexible and lightweight solar materials, we are paving the way to realize a greener way to power up even the tallest buildings.![Solar Power Building Solar Power Building](../Images/Image1.png)
Gone will be the large cumbersome solar panels that you’re accustomed to, and in their place will be windows and glass surfaces of buildings. Tinted semi-transparent OPV photovoltaic films could be used to coat all of the windows of a building, which will in turn generate electricity that will ultimately be used within the building.
