The-Open-Mind reports on Michigan State University researchers developing transparent or clear solar panel technology that may be able to utilize windows in energy storage. They created a see-though luminescent solar contractor to be place over windows. Application for these solar panels can be best used in architecture, mobile electronics, and the automotive industry.
The Open Mind Staff relay in the article, "The technology uses organic molecules which absorb light wavelengths which are not visible to the human eye, such as infrared and UV light. Highly transparent solar cells represent the wave of the future in new solar applications, says Richard Lunt, the Johansen Crosby Endowed Associate professor of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at MSU.
