BendiNewsTest: Revolutionary transparent solar cells could produce 50 times more energy than conventional solar

We’ve seen several transparent solar cell concepts on Inhabitat, but perhaps none with such ambitious claims as those made by SolarWindow Technologies. In a webinar today, the Maryland-based startup announced that their revolutionary transparent solar technology, which can generate 50 times more energy than conventional solar panels, would soon hit the market. Unlike traditional and opaque PV technology, SolarWindow can be readily applied as a coating to any glass window or plastic surface and instantly generate electricity, even in artificial light and shade. The company claims that the SolarWindow technology can produce more energy at a lower cost and offer an incredibly fast ROI of within one year as compared to conventional solar systems that require at least 5 to 11 years for payback.
