GenVue
Crystal-clear glass with invisible solar cells. Your windows generate clean energy — without compromising the view.
Aether glass is virtually invisible. But as sunlight passes through, invisible photovoltaic cells convert it to clean electricity — silently, all day.
Photovoltaic cells are integrated at the molecular level — completely invisible to the naked eye. Full transparency maintained while generating clean electricity.
Over 70% visible light transmission. Crystal-clear daylight, unimpeded views, and natural comfort — indistinguishable from standard architectural glass.
Windows, curtain walls, skylights, atriums, and facades. Wherever glass can go, Aether can generate energy — without any visible difference.
Directly contributes to BREEAM, LEED, and net-zero building certifications. Generates credits toward planning and sustainability requirements.
Connects to building energy management systems and smart grids. Excess energy stored or sold back to the grid — turning glazed surfaces into revenue.
No moving parts, no maintenance beyond standard glass cleaning. Cells are sealed and protected within the glass laminate — lasting the lifetime of the building.
Aether is available in four photovoltaic technologies — each optimised for different climates, transparency requirements, and architectural applications.
CdTe integrates a thin-film cadmium telluride photovoltaic layer within a sealed insulating glazing unit. Combines thermal performance with energy generation — ideal for facades requiring excellent sound insulation, thermal insulation, and heat preservation.
Structure: Low-E glass + air space + CdTe solar laminate. Adjustable air layer thickness and colour tinting options available.
Crystalline silicon achieves the highest efficiency of all Aether variants — 12 to 20% power conversion. Mono and polycrystalline configurations, including trapezoid layouts for architectural flexibility. Produces more electricity under direct sunlight than any other glazing technology.
Available with 5" or 6" solar cell arrays integrated seamlessly into architectural glass surfaces.
Q Glass is designed for architectural integration using semi-structural glazing systems. Compatible with all major facade systems, Q Glass allows flexible glazing package combinations to meet both aesthetic and structural requirements.
Specification reference: 44.3 QG 20Ar/4ESGTH. Proven across private residential and commercial applications.
Amorphous silicon is deposited via CVD (chemical vapour deposition) directly onto flat glass — maintaining full visual transparency while generating power. Where c-Si thrives in direct sunlight, a-Si excels in diffuse, overcast, and shaded conditions. Orientation-independent.
Low temperature coefficient means performance is maintained even under high heat. Available in dark, 10%, and 20% visible light transmittance.
Specify Aether for your next glazed facade and make every window contribute to your building's energy independence.
