Low Cost Electrochromic Window Technology

TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

Click Materials is commercializing electrochromic window technology based on 10+ years of research at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. The windows are expected to be >50% lower cost than incumbent technologies that rely on capital intensive deposition equipment. Electrochromic windows (aka "smart windows") provide variable tinting capabilities that significantly reduce energy requirements, improve employee productivity, and enable the connected Smart Home. The current market is $2B and growing rapidly across the transportation, commercial buildings, residential, and electronics sector. The technology has been proven at the pilot scale for a related application.
