Electrochromic Smart
Windows for Solar Radiation

Electrochromic materials (ECM) and electrochromic windows (ECW)
offer a dynamic and controllable way of regulating solar radiation
transmittance. The ECWs accomplish this smart regulation of solar
radiation through application of external adjustable electrical voltage.
