Transparent Solar Panels Camilla Engström Angela Nonkes

Explanation The History of Tomorrow In the future we hope people can choose the grade of opacity in their solar panel windows. We are able to create transparent or semi- transparent solar panels, which can be inserted into windows. The windows filtrate certain colors which generate energy. Currently they can only filtrate one or two colors and not all of them The transparent windows are still too expensive to produce in large scale. We will be able to filtrate more colors and by that make the panels cheeper. We hope transparent solar panels will be used everywhere; in offices, homes, shopping centers, cars, greenhouses… TOMORROWTODAY

Infiltration of Light Certain colors filtrate at different capacities in the panels layers. Science

. Semi- Transparent -mask light acts as shadows Non transparent – takes up large areas, but can be mass produced Transparent - less space needed Planning Transparency at Different Levels

Planning PRODUCTION LOCATION LIGHT Aspects to Consider placing the solar cells intensity and frequency capacity of the cells

Planning Visionary Glass Roofs

Benefits Takes up Less Space Aesthetically Pleasing Multiple opportunities to use Double functions as window and energy source Source of renewable energy
