An article by Sharon Udasin in the Jerusalem Post:
Israel-based firm Pythagoras Solar has completed installing the world’s
first “solar windows” that simultaneously generate electricity through
solar power and also optimize the daylight coming through the windows, the company announced this week. The 20 windows were successfully integrated into the Organic Valley headquarters building in La Farge, Wisconsin. With the new windows,
workers inside the building are able to turn off artificial lights
during the daytime, as the windows bring diffused natural light, instead
of glare, into the building, the company said.
“By adopting these innovative windows, we are also helping to pave the way for this technology,
which has the merit to become a standard in the design and construction
of net zero energy buildings,” said Cecil Wright, vice president of
sustainability and local operations at Organic Valley, in a statement
released by Pythagoras.
