One major hurdle to wide-scale solar energy deployment is having enough space for solar panels, especially in cities where land and roof space on buildings is in short supply. In high-density locations, producing enough solar electricity to power a building from just the rooftop is difficult, especially when mechanical systems occupy space. But what if the glass itself could generate clean energy with transparent solar panels? Transparent photovoltaic (PV) panels were first developed in 2014 by
As adoption rates rise for traditional photovoltaic solar panels, researchers continue to innovate. Read more about transparent and see-through solar panels.
