Producing power -VS- saving power efficiency. (Practicable-reasonable)
Is Powerglass efficiency with the primary range of the wavelength of light that XsnX thin film extracts out of the sunlight, which is only 5%, or less per sq m?
Powerglass is approximately 4% conversion efficiency at 70% transmissivity (transparency). Note: Transparency and conversion efficiency can be either increased (to 5%) or decreased based on the required specifications of the application.
Some tint glass could be as efficient with energy saving without the cost of extras set up: (wiring, converters, controls, special mounts, seals, overall added maintenance). All this adds extreme cost, which makes Powerglass a interesting concept, but very possibly unjustified for manufactures to add it into architectural glass as it is today, unless-XsnX R&D can bring the efficiency up to compete with some smart tint glass with already long proven efficiency in some standing buildings of today. Remember although it may have a tint color it does not have the capability to also work like the tint glass.
Visionaries, think about it. XsnX is only 5% efficient or less. Tint glass could be as effective.
My Opinion; fresh perspective.
