Andersen To Build Energy Generating Windows, Doors

Window and door manufacturer Andersen Corporation has partnered with Ubiquitous Energy, a solar technology company, to jointly develop energy generating window and door products. The companies are working together to bring products to market that will feature solar generation for residential and light commercial buildings. The products will leverage Ubiquitous Energy’s UE Power technology, a visibly transparent photovoltaic glass coating that harnesses solar power to generate electricity. The company is actively raising funding to accelerate commercialization efforts, including funding for a U.S.-based manufacturing facility that will supply the first transparent solar window and door units to Andersen and other partners and customers.
