<p>A variable transmittance double pane window includes an electrochromic material (16) that has been deposited on one pane of the window (12) in conjunction with an array of photovoltaic cells (60) deposited along an edge of the pane to produce the required electric power necessary to vary the effective transmittance of the window. A battery is placed in a parallel fashion to the array of photovoltaic cells to allow the user the ability to manually override the system when a transmittance is desired.</p> |
