Highlights
Introduction to AuREO systems00:01:08
Harvey, the inventor, introduces AuREO systems, which began as solar glass windows. This technology has evolved to enable various surfaces, including textiles and other materials, to absorb and sequester ultraviolet light while generating clean electricity.
How AuREO systems work00:02:22
Using organic luminescent compounds, AuREO absorbs ultraviolet light, producing photons. Solar films then capture these photons, and through the photovoltaic effect, electricity is generated.
