New Energy has developed a spray on technology (at room temperature!) for glass that allows it to create electricity from sunlight. They were set to demonstrate their prototype technology at University of South Florida. Typically solar film is opaque which is not the best thing for a window, especially if you want to enjoy the view. Their solution is clear so the view is not the limit!
If this technology is cheap enough it could jut bee added to any window..can you imagine a high rise glass building with these?

Spraying thin film solar cell technology is a step ahead in replacing solar glass panels which absorb energy from the sun. If this technology really works as planned, it could help the industrial settings largely where the buildings are in need of solar panels.
