Technical FAQs 4

What is solar glass?

Solar glass is a type of glass that is specially designed to harness solar energy and convert it into electricity. It is made by incorporating photovoltaic cells into the glass, allowing it to generate power from sunlight. This innovative technology has gained popularity in recent years as a sustainable and efficient way to produce clean energy.

Can glass be used as a technology platform for solar energy?

The history of glass and coatings on glass as a technology platform for solar energy is captured in the timeline shown in Fig. 48.4. It begins with development of the float process for the high-volume manufacturing of low-cost, high-quality glass that became ubiquitous in the commercial and residential architecture of the 1960s.

What are Photovoltaic Glass applications?

Photovoltaic glass applications around the world are diversifying to adapt to different climate conditions and architectural styles. For example, in Mediterranean countries where sunshine duration is high, photovoltaic glass panels are used on the facades and roofs of buildings to achieve maximum energy production.

Why is glass used in solar cells?
