Spray-On Solar Windows
OK, this may not be "news" anymore, since it was announced 2 months ago, but a company called New Energy Technologies announced a product that they claim allows ordinary windows to be converted to solar generating windows.The product, which would be sprayed onto the window surface, essentially creates a thin-film coating (claimed to be thinner than existing thin-filmed technologies) that generates electricity.
The press release can be viewed on eSolar News.
The company claims that performance numbers with third-party review will be published shortly. No indication of availability and cost has been provided.
Obviously, this method brings up a lot of questions, ranging from durability to how much light will be allowed through. Another interesting one to watch...
