• Pythagoras Solar develop electricity generating skylight, that uses solar power

  • 3.jpgPythagoras is here with something more than a confusing theorem that has left many a geometry student baffled in the past. We aren’t talking about the good old mathematician anyways. We’re talking about the firm Pythagoras Solar, founded by philosophy M.A. Gonen Fink, which has recently developed a nearly transparent solar glass, using patent-pending products. In short, this awesome development works as a skylight and a solar energy sucking energy generator too. Now a skylight sure has loads of energy-saving features that turn your required space energy-efficient. Skylights let in daylight, for natural lighting and also help reduce building heating and cooling costs. This one does a lot more. It produces electricity!


    Here’s something that’ll make your jaw drop. This skylight produces more solar energy than a regular solar panel, at 13 watts a square foot, which is also more than a regular building-integrated PV (BIPV). So two ten foot by ten foot skylights measuring 200 square feet makes up for a 2.6 KW solar system, producing 500 kilowatt hours a month. Amazing is the word for this innovation!
