Development and Optimization of Advanced Glazing Technologies for Solar Ponds to Enhance Power Generation

Modern buildings experience substantial energy losses through window glazing, compromising overallenergy efficiency. This study presents the design and evaluation of an advanced hybrid window system thatsimultaneously reduces thermal transmission and generates electricity. The proposed system integrates low-emissivity(low-E) coated double glazing with embedded thermoelectric generator (TEG) modules to harvest energy fromtemperature gradients across the window. The …
