SolarWindow Technologies has secured a manufacturing agreement for the coating of its organic photovoltaic solar generation liquid on glass windows that will produce electricity on all four sides of commercial buildings.
This first regional production agreement is with Triview Glass Industries, based in Los Angeles, California. Triview, which has 12 production lines, is specialized in tempered, laminated, and insulated glass products.
Columbia, Maryland-based SolarWindow will seek to raise capital over the next six months for equipment and working capital at the Triview location.
Solar Window, which is publicly traded, does not indicate exactly what materials it uses in its coating, nor how much electricity its coating will produce. The company also relies on its own projections to calculate economic feasibility. Part of the formula the company uses to calculate the relative performance of its product is the large area of glass on a building, which it compares with a small rooftop footprint for economic viability. The company did not respond to a request for further clarification.
