The energy flows invisibly from the transparent glass windows of our homes, offices and shopping centers, directly to storage systems and consumers. This is the dream of anyone who has respect for the environment and cares about architectural impact. Today this is possible through a new extraordinary technological revolution called LSC - Luminescent Solar Concentrator - which makes use of nanocrystals incorporated into thin films or modules of plexiglass. The nanocrystals convert sunlight into infrared light which is reflected inside the panel across to the window edge. Here, a thin strip of silicon photovoltaic cells converts the infrared photons into electric power with a high efficiency rate. It sounds like magic but it’s true!
