Continuous Solar Energy Conversion Windows Integrating Zinc Anode‐Based Electrochromic Device and IoT System

Integration of solar cells and electrochromic windows offers crucial contributions to green buildings. Solar-charging zinc anode-based electrochromic devices (ZECDs) present opportunities for addressing the solar intermittency issue. However, the limited energy storage capacity of ZECDs results in wasted harnessing of solar energy as well as overcharging. Herein, spectral-selective dual-band ZECDs that continuously transport solar energy to indoor appliances by remotely controlling the repeated bleached-tinted cycles during the daytime, are reported.
