SOLAR-POWERED GLASS COMPANY IN SILICON VALLEY

Today I'm here with Chuck Mallory, President and CEO of the Clearview of the North American Division. Thank you so much for joining us, Chuck. Yeah. Yeah, so tell me about this mock-up and this solar glass. How does it work? Yeah, David, John, thanks for coming. We're really excited. This is our Clearview insulating glass. This is our Clearview insulating solar glass that generates solar power. However, it's a vision glass you can see in and out of. And this is our Clearview spandrel glass that's for opaque areas of facades. You can't see through it and it generates more power. And we're here today at Royal Glass where they fabricated an aluminum curtain wall. This fan is only connected to the power being generated by the cells at the perimeter of the vision light. When I turn that on, I'm running a fan. The bottom light is spandrel for areas of the building that you don't need to see through from the inside and you don't want to see the floor or the columns of the building. Obviously, we're more coverage of solar and much more efficient. And these fans obviously run quite a bit more. And you can tell if you do block some of the sun, if I stand in front of it, the fans are running a little less. They're still running. But the ideal scenario is the part of the day where you have full sunlight is running louder and faster than if you would have plugged it into a wall. So it's generating a fair amount of power. So how does this compare to traditional solar panels that are on the roof? If you want to be net zero, if the building owners truly want to generate power for their building use, there's only so much room on a rooftop of a building to put those types of solar panels. And there's only so much room on the carports. When you do that, you still haven't generated all the power you need. So at some point, our belief and our hope at Clearview is you have to use the facades of buildings, especially the south, the east, the north, or the west and the north. North, maybe not. But this is a system that can go on the facade of your building. And why is Clearview making San Jose its headquarters? Yeah, San Jose, I think it's number six in the ranking of the greenest cities in America. Matt Mahan, the mayor, he's a new mayor. He campaigned on green and clean. He's trying to make the city green. And so he was at our grand opening last week and we turned the fans on and he couldn't believe it. So he now knows this technology is available and San Jose, the technology and it's the Silicon Valley. So if you're going to start a new tech company, it's not computers or anything, but I mean, this is not a bad area to draw employees from that. We need technical employees. We need electricians, electrical engineers, people with solar experience. Thank you so much for giving us a clear window into a solar bus. Yeah. Dave, thank you for coming. John, thank you.
