Photovoltaic glass
Publish date 29-01-2025
Don't have a roof to install solar panels? Solar panels integrated into the glass of your windows could be the solution. Some companies have developed transparent photovoltaic glass that can generate energy without compromising visibility. These panels capture sunlight through thin cells integrated into the glass that can generate up to 19 kWh of electricity per day, reducing energy costs by 40% in greenhouses and an overall energy saving of 71% in buildings. An innovative solution for a greener and more sustainable energy future. The advantages are many: in addition to reducing energy bills, solar glass improves the appearance of buildings and reduces their environmental impact. In the future, photovoltaic windows could become a standard for sustainable construction, allowing cities to use glass surfaces to produce renewable energy in a discreet and functional way, making the urban future more self-sufficient.
