The special glass used incorporates a nanoparticle interlayer sandwiched within a panel comprised of two or three glass panes<sup class='endnote'><a href='https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/clearvue-solar-windows-mb2057\/#en-51639-1' id='enref-51639-1' onclick='return hhEndnotes_show(51639)'>1<\/a><\/sup>. and spectral-selective coating on some of the panes. This allows up to 70% of natural light to pass through and redirects infrared and UV light converted to infrared to the edge of the pane where it is harvested by solar cells.<\/p>\n<p>The first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/clearvue-solar-glass-mb0920\/\">commercial trial of ClearVue solar glass<\/a> commenced at Warwick Grove Shopping Centre in Western Australia early in 2019. The windows are averaging close to 1.6kWh of electricity generation a day, but ClearVue notes the installation involves less than ideal angles and some heavy shading. More recently and also in WA, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/clearvue-solar-greenhouse-mb1962\/\">high-tech greenhouse<\/a> at Murdoch University\u2019s grains research precinct comprised mainly of\u00a0 ClearVue solar windows was completed in April this year.<\/p>\n<p>ClearVue has now chalked up its first sale of solar glass for use in an outdoor public open space application &#8211; a covered seating area at an inner-Sydney park. Which park isn&#8217;t mentioned.<\/p>\n<p>In this scenario the windows have a double application. They&#8217;ll be used to power lighting at the park (so perhaps some battery storage is also involved) and protect park users from &#8220;the harmful effects of UV and heat from IR&#8221; &#8211; and of course, rain.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;This new project, whilst a small project for the Company, demonstrates the versatility of the ClearVue technology and products,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/asx.api.markitdigital.com\/asx-research\/1.0\/file\/2924-02388501-6A1038343?access_token=83ff96335c2d45a094df02a206a39ff4\"> said<\/a> ClearVue Executive Chairman and Founder, Victor Rosenberg<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>How Much Do ClearVue Solar Windows Cost?<\/h2>\n<p>The announcement notes 104 sqm (42 panels) have been ordered, and the value of the order is $114,00 ex-GST. That price includes aluminium framing, international sea freight, local delivery to the Sydney park and all freight insurances and taxes.<\/p>\n<p>ClearVue solar windows are currently rated to generate 30 watts-peak of electric power for each 1m<sup>2<\/sup>, so:<\/p>\n<p>104sqm x 30 watts = 3.1kW for $114,000; not including installation and ex-GST.<\/p>\n<p>Just as some sort of comparison &#8211; and not a great one given the difference between the products &#8211; a good quality conventional 3kW <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/cost\/\">solar system costs<\/a> around $3,500 \u2013 $5,000 installed including GST. According to the SolarQuotes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/price-explorer\/nsw\/\">Australian Solar Price Index &#8211; NSW<\/a>, you can currently buy a 6.6kW system for around $6,000 fully installed. Depending on installation scenario, a conventional solar power system would also generate significantly more electricity overall based on watt-for-watt capacity.<\/p>\n<p>While ClearVue solar windows are very pricey, it&#8217;s an interesting building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) technology that should drop in price as the product evolves and manufacturing scales up. On a related note, the company has previously mentioned a 40W product should be available this year &#8211; and 50 watts should also be possible with further development.<\/p>\n<p>The company has been developing the technology for around a decade and working with the Electron Science Research Institute (ESRI) at Edith Cowan University in WA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Would you like windows on your home that generate electricity?
