From Light to Electricity

Power glass is a new type of building material made by laminating transparent conductive oxide films, adhesive films, and solar cells together and undergoing special treatment. It not only has the transparency and aesthetic characteristics of ordinary glass, but also can use the photoelectric effect to convert solar energy into electrical energy, mainly used in fields such as building curtain walls and windows, providing green and clean energy supply for buildings.

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

Photovoltaic glass is a special type of glass that can generate electricity using solar radiation by laminating solar cells, and has related current extraction devices and cables. It has the advantages of beauty, controllable light transmission, energy-saving power generation, and does not require fuel, does not produce exhaust gas, has no waste heat, no waste residue, and no noise pollution. It is widely used, such as solar smart windows, solar pavilions, photovoltaic glass building ceilings, and photovoltaic glass curtain walls. Photovoltaic glass can be divided into two categories: crystalline silicon photovoltaic glass and thin-film photovoltaic glass. Among them, the most commonly used type for curtain walls is crystalline silicon, which is further divided into monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon.
