Nippon Sheet Glass (NSG), Japan's largest glassmaker, plans to conduct tests on photovoltaic windows developed by its US unit, Ubiquitous Energy, at a train station in Japan. The windows feature a transparent photovoltaic coating with an invisible element of power generation, capable of absorbing non-visible wavelengths.
Ubiquitous Energy says that the Department of Energy has invited the company to complete the second part of its Title XVII Loan Guarantee Program. The loan guarantee would allow the company to bring its technology to market faster, say officials.
