Solar PV manufacturer Toledo Solar Inc (TSI) has been awarded $8.8 million in federal funding through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) to continue its work on the commercialization of transparent and semi-transparent solar glass products for architectural windows.
As a part of its award from SETO, TSI and its partners will contribute a cost share of $9 million, bringing the total funding for the project to $17.8 million.
TSI says the development of semi-transparent solar glass will allow markets that utilize traditional glass to incorporate an energy generation solution.
