Hotel signs major solar deal
Solar cell pioneer G24 Innovations and US company Skyco Shading Systems have won a contract from a global hotel chain to install energy efficient shades in more than 8000 windows in its flagship hotel.
The automated shade system is wireless and will be powered by G24's Gen-3 indoor solar technology. According to G24, the hotel will save $3million on installation costs by eliminating the need for wiring.
The hotel will be the first in the world to deploy and use a large scale indoor solar system to power a major system autonomously.
