New smart material could let windows store solar power and tint on demand

The growing demand for sustainable and energy-efficient technologies has increased interest in smart materials that can perform more than one function at the same time. In his doctoral dissertation, MSc Sachin Kochrekar developed materials that can both change color and store electrical energy. In the future, this technology could be used, for example, in energy-storing, self-tinting smart windows.
