Chinese scientists say they have created a transparent solar coating that turns ordinary windows into energy generators without affecting clarity, according to a Science Daily report. The coating, ...

Sunwarmed surfaces, sometimes too hot to touch, give us everyday evidence of the energy put out by our nearest star. Directing that energy into electricity production is nothing short of miraculous.

Solar-collecting windows could make office buildings and skyscrapers more energy efficient, but harnessing solar power while retaining transparency is a tricky engineering problem. A new study from ...
