And next time I’ll check the link before re-posting. This is from 2013 and still not really a thing. Here’s hoping that the research is still progressing though. H/T @mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io for the pointer.

    @andy47@aus.social @mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io There are some windows which take the UV, scatter it as IR to the edges where there are solar panels that can use it. It's not high energy, but it's some. That the solar panels can use both UV and IR at the same time seems unlikely due to the way solar panels work. It would need to be a binary junction.
