    I still won’t use it. But, hey some people will.

    This should go on the roof of vehicles that can take better angle of solar than a squared home or building.

    First time I’ve heard opening a window, as being mechanised venting.

    Amazing!

    This isn’t going anywhere. Windows are at an angel that don’t really perpendicular to the sun ray. And there are obstacles like trees, awnings, etc. and 5-10% conversion? Forget about it.

    Reliability?

    So instead of low-efficiency see-through solar windows, how about high-efficiency house sidings that looks like regular sidings?

    I think upping the efficiency of solar panels should take priority over vanity projects… It’s really no different from making a Nokia 5110 out of some exotic material instead of evolving its usability.

    Sounds more expensive than regular window

      It is. But if it was supplied by the utility company , like solar panels have been for years, to cut back on out put by the electricity company then small price would be worth it. My family member had solar power put on her house here in Texas with NO COST. She saved a bunch and it put less stress on our electrical state grid.
      Why would I like regular windows if they don’t save me utility money?

    What about if they cost rhe same or near “normal” windows. What BS. Oh, those squirrels on the roof hate those black panels. My roof might be ugly to birds and helicopters. Notice how they are 5% compared to 20%. Who cares if they are clear? Rhetorical. For a skyscraper…..maybe. to make up the return on a commercial level. Additional to solar roof panels. I’d rather humans not waste more and give the extra money to lessen waste, rather than pretty windows. (Cars already have solar roof panels.)

    Are we sure this is not another Theranos?

    solar glass on the Aptera would be awesome.

    Nice tech. How soon can we get this in UK

    The sauletech from Poland created inkjet-printing perovskite solar cell and based on this the Building Integrated photovoltaics already on the market in Europe.

    Here in the UK we would be able to benefit from this for nearly 3 or 4 days per year. ????️

    Company Was found like 10 years ago, and yet not even 1% of the country is using it. …Elon was right, patents are for cowards.

    Anything that might lower our cost for power is a good thing!

    This has been around for years…not news at all …. did any further progress happen this time ?

  20. Naglis

    Hopefully it’ll come to market soon Been waiting for tech like this for 10 years alongside with badeless wind energy and so on

    • Le Mau

      January 23, 2023 at 2:29 am

      bladeless wind energy is fake. they still use blades, they’re just hidden.

  21. Furry Donkey

    That invisible house for sale just recently could use this ……

    The problem about solar power is we do not have Sun for three weeks and then one day sun three weeks no sun

  23. tkjho

    January 22, 2023 at 10:15 pm

    5% efficiency – 5% of the whole light spectrum or 5% of the UV and IR portions?

  24. brett mashado

    January 22, 2023 at 10:53 pm

    ClearVue Technologies Limited also are a solar glass company

  25. CK Gaming Channel

    January 22, 2023 at 11:11 pm

    Harnessing a fraction of the light spectrum is kinda useless. TBH.

  26. Galo Aguirre

    If they could include an auto-tint, that’d be awesome!

  27. Fuzed Cable

    Smart window…?

  28. Jeff Barron

    January 23, 2023 at 3:59 am

    Will the polarization of tempered glass have any effect and is the coating a post coating (a soft-coat requiring encasing). Maybe tempering is not even in the pic yet. Maybe ion generator instead

      Amazing I also started trading with Mr shelton recently. $670,000 profits in just 2 months and still counting, Mr shelton Morrison is the crypto trade king as far as am concerned.

    • Patrick Hemel

      A transformations from my investment of $4000 to $15,400 in just 2 weeks!!

    • Mr Bud

      January 23, 2023 at 5:04 am

      My wife and I hold Mr shelton Morrison in high esteem because of the £21,000 weekly profit we’re receiving trading with his strategies

    • rabiot fédéraux

      January 23, 2023 at 5:05 am

      l just got myself a new Tesla model car just few weeks back after started trading with Mr Morrison, he’s such a great man????.

      Thank you I will message him through what’s apk right away, I see this as an opportunity to escape my financial situation.

    Solar panels are made in Chinese concentration camps. Look it up. But it’s ok they’re suffering in the Holy name of climate change

  32. Big E

    More info is needed here. Can it be applied to existing windows, what about the angle, what about curved glass, does it work in low light, and more…

  33. marc piedagnel

    January 23, 2023 at 1:52 pm

    It juste capture the infrareds that would be heating the inside of the building but with some energy loss

  34. Will Cook

    January 23, 2023 at 6:14 pm

    Once this really kicks off, gets down on cost, and becomes easily accessible, it truly could be the biggest game changer in the renewable energy movement. Obviously converting all the currently existing windows in the world will take decades if not more, but it truly would negate the need for gas power. There are literally billions and billions of windows on earth.

    Sticking Big black…. Solar panels ???????? uff that ws a close one..????????lol my mind though ????

  36. James Jones

    So far the few family members that does have solar panels on their roof are costing more than their monthly bill because disconnected issues and hard to get knowledgeable professionals for help. They might have to find solutions YouTube to try to do it themselves.

    Seems this gets invented every year but never reaches consumers. Too many issues to overcome
