Can you imagine? Transparent "glass" windows become solar cells that collect solar energy to power office lighting, computers, and air conditioning
.
Recently, the US Silicon Valley start-up Universal Energy is studying transparent solar cells, which can be installed on everyday products such as mobile phones and windows, and generate energy
.
The United States is working on a transparent solar cell
Speaking of transparent solar cells for buildings and electronics, Barr, CEO of Silicon Valley start-up Universal Energy, said: "This is a completely new way
to use solar energy.
”
With the help of organic chemistry, transparent solar cells are solving the biggest obstacle to the use of solar energy
.
While solar energy is by far the most potential energy resource accessible to humanity, we are far from
harnessing it.
Photovoltaic panels mounted on roofs can convert sunlight into electricity, but only 20%
more efficiently.
Researchers have been trying to improve the efficiency of
solar panels.
But some scientists believe that to truly harness the sun's energy, we also need to make almost or completely transparent cells that increase the area
where solar equipment is laid.
With the support of the US government's research, scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology published a study in 2011, and the team at Universal Energy stumbled upon an optimal formula
based on this research.
Barr claims: "Overall, this is a compromise between transparency and energy efficiency
.
Our technology is designed to obtain a lot of energy
while guaranteeing high transparency.
”
In terms of energy efficiency, Universal Energy is expected to increase to at least 10%, which is less than what can be achieved with solar panels made of silicon, but can meet a wider range of installation needs
.
"We have millions of square meters of glass surfaces around us to assemble
.
"
It is reported that Universal Energy plans to promote this transparent solar cell technology
on a small scale first.
The company's pilot production facility in Redwood City, California, is currently manufacturing mobile devices and designing smartphone prototypes, watches and other small electronics
