Is there a way how to put solar panels in between glass and make it clear?

Question

I was thinking. If we could put solar panels in the glass in city buildings, a lot of energy could be prodused and a lot of money could be saved.

Answer 1

yeah it can be produced and saved its a win win situation you could proablly have upscale eco friendly coffe shops do this. check in

Answer 2

No.  Solar panels panels absorb light energy to produce electricity, so a transparent panel would not absorb the energy and therefore would not produce any power.  There are semi-transparent solar cells in the works but they produce very little power because they don't make the best use of the incoming light.
