Researchers of University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a new transparent solar cell that is an advance toward giving windows in homes and other buildings the ability to generate electricity while still allowing people to see outside.
Schreiner Group has enlarged main plant in Oberschleißheim, Germany, with an additional production site that will be mainly used for the manufacture of solutions for product and document protection.
Heliatek GmbH, a technology leader in the field of organic photovoltaics, has announced that its transparent solar films could be used to be integrated between the glass sheets of double glazed windows. These windows would look like tinted glass as the vapour deposition technology for the solar films allows for a homogeneous coating of the solar layer without distracting patterns or irregularities.
