Solar glass or solar control glass is a specially coated glass that is designed to reduce the amount of heat entering the building. This glass reflects and absorbs the sun''s rays and helps control
Explore how anti-reflective coatings boost solar efficiency, reduce glare, and enhance durability in photovoltaic glass. Unlock higher output and longer panel life.
Solar control glass can help mitigate glare from the sun and increase the visual comfort of building occupants, particularly if a glazed façade is directly exposed to the sun and with a high window-to
The 64.7 % reduction in soiling observed for the alkaline-etched glass suggests potential economic benefits. In dusty environments, this improvement can enhance energy output and reduce
Solar control glass is designed to reduce overheating in homes and buildings due to solar gain. By reflecting infrared radiation and allowing natural light through, it maintains indoor comfort
It is a specialized type of glass that can help improve the energy efficiency of a building and make it more comfortable for its occupants. In this article, we will explore the benefits, types, and
Despite the abundance of solar radiation, significant energy losses occur due to scattering, reflection, and thermal dissipation. Glass mitigates these losses by functioning as a
In hot climates, solar control glass can be used to minimise solar heat gain and help control glare. In temperate regions, it can be used to balance solar control with high levels of natural light.
Neutral solar control coatings from IQ Glass to reduce the effect of overheating through large architectural glass installations. Solar Control Glass is manufactured with Solar Control Coatings
A significant portion of potential cooling energy savings is available through reducing the solar heat gain properties of a window, which can be accomplished with a solar control film retrofit, applied directly to
Scelto Energy Africa is a leading energy storage equipment manufacturer and integrator based in South Africa, serving the African market. We specialize in lithium-ion batteries for residential, commercial and industrial use, system-level battery management systems (BMS) for optimal performance and safety, energy conversion systems (PCS) for efficient power flow, energy storage battery system cabinets with integrated monitoring, communication cabinets for telecom and data centres, commercial & industrial energy storage cabinets for factories and warehouses, integrated PV-storage systems for seamless solar plus storage operation, distributed energy resources for microgrids and off-grid applications, and deep discharge battery technology for extended cycling. As a full-service provider, we also offer containerised BESS, modular battery racks, backup emergency power, and zero‑carbon microgrids. Our advanced lithium‑ion and sodium‑ion solutions ensure safety, scalability, and high performance for residential, commercial, industrial, and utility projects across Africa.
Our modular energy storage portfolio ranges from compact lithium-ion batteries to 20ft/40ft mobile containers and outdoor all-in-one storage cabinets with IP54 protection. We are a leading energy storage equipment manufacturer, offering communication cabinets for 5G/telecom, server racks for data centers, and IP54 rated enclosures for harsh environments. Our stackable design allows flexible capacity expansion, while our grid-forming technology ensures stable off‑grid operation. Whether for off‑grid power systems, backup emergency power, integrated PV-storage or large zero‑carbon parks, our products feature advanced thermal management, deep discharge cycling, and compliance with African and international standards. We also provide professional energy storage system installation and after‑sales support across Africa.
