·      April 2019 Commercial Sale and Delivery to South African Property development group  GrowthPoint Properties Limited. The sale is for four (4) 1.2m x 1.2m panels, which GrowthPoint and Conscius Consultants intend to use as a technology demonstrator to assist them in obtaining a 6-Star rating for the new building. https://announcements.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20190402/pdf/443z6xc2nnkjrz.pdf

·      March 2019 Warwick Gove Shopping Centre Western Australia. ClearVue has installed its clear solar PV glass into its first demonstration site – the entrance atrium. The atrium entrance area ClearVue PV glass will charge a battery for energy storage and will provide power for lighting in the atrium, outside signage and for a display screen inside the Centre. The display will provide information on the performance of the atrium in terms of its power generation, energy savings made and carbon offsets. The atrium may also be further upgraded to include other real time information collected from IoT sensors integrated with the atrium structure and powered by the ClearVue PV glass. https://announcements.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20190130/pdf/4425l2jc5p01tq.pdf

Hypothetic Real World Application

Solar panels, in real-world conditions, typically produce between 200 to 300 watts per square meter. Contrastingly, the latest generation of transparent photovoltaic glass, such as ClearVue, reaches a peak of 40 watts per square meter.

In one of Clearvue presentations they use the example of One World Trade Center (Freedom Tower) in New York City having over 93,000 sqm of glass and out of curiosity I wondered how much of its daily power requirements could be powered if it was Clearvue glass. With a bit help from Chat GPT, I have come up  with an answer of less than 10% of the building daily requirements at peak output (probably bit too optimistic). Happy to be correct on the math or thinking too, if anyone has better understand or knowledge on the subject!!

To gauge the potential of transparent photovoltaic glass, let's consider the One World Trade Center (WTC) in New York City. With over 93,000 square meters of glass facade, the building presents an intriguing opportunity for solar energy integration.

Estimating Power Requirements: To estimate the power requirement of One World Trade Center, we consider various factors such as size, occupancy, and equipment. Assuming an average power consumption rate of 0.1 kWh per square foot per day, equivalent to approximately 350 megawatts (MW) of power per day, we gain insights into the building's energy needs.

Calculating Power Generation: Given the area of the glass panels (93,000 square meters) and the power generated per square meter (40 watts), we can calculate the total power generated. The result, 3,720,000 watts, highlights the potential contribution of transparent photovoltaic glass.

So assuming ~roughly 6 hours of peak production (depending on sunlight etc), resulting in 22,320,000 watts, or roughly 6.4% Building requirements.

Maybe jumping into subject to deeply but if you were to use the 93,000 square meters on solar panels which from quick research would cost same or less than transparent photovoltaic glass and obviously not on the building (in field/solar farm) it would power ~48% building requirements under the same assumptions.

#Business Model/Strategy

The spark for diving into this stock came from an intriguing episode of the Tech Zero podcast by the Australian Financial Review. They shed light on sustainable architecture, highlighting how Atlassian's headquarters is changing the game.

Looking into the construction industry, it's clear it's a big contributor to global carbon emissions, making up around 39% of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions globally, as per the International Energy Agency.

In response to this challenge, ClearVue has stepped up with their innovative glass technology. It's not just about keeping things transparent anymore; their tech also generates electricity. They've come up with a clever interlayer that activates light passing through the glass to generate energy. Their latest windows can churn out a peak power of 40 Watts per square meter.

But what can you actually do with that? Well, quite a bit:

·      Light up LED bulbs: You can illuminate multiple spaces with the energy harvested from ClearVue's windows.

·      Power small gadgets: Devices like smartphones and tablets, known for their modest power needs, can be juiced up efficiently.

·      Run small appliances: Everything from blenders to toasters could find a home in a sustainable energy ecosystem.

·      Fuel low-power DIY electronics projects

While ClearVue is making waves, it's important to remember they're not alone in this space. Competitors like Solar Window Technologies, Glass to Power, ML System, Onyx, Next Energy Technologies, and Ubiquitous Energy are also making strides in sustainable glass tech.
