Company profile
researched Aug 2026Ubiquitous Energy develops UE Power, a transparent solar coating designed to generate electricity from sunlight while remaining visually clear. The coating selectively absorbs infrared and ultraviolet light and allows visible light to pass through, which the company presents as the mechanism by which true transparency is achieved.
The coating is formed from light-absorbing dyes sourced from non-toxic, earth-abundant materials that the company compares to pigments used in fabrics and paints. This is intended to allow power generation to be integrated into windows and the surfaces of everyday objects without changing their appearance or function. The company states the technology is patent protected, that transparency matches the look of traditional windows, that it does not compromise the performance standards of a low-emissivity window, and that it can generate enough electricity to power a range of applications in commercial and residential buildings.
▸Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market
Market position
The company differentiates on transparency: rather than tinting or obscuring glass, UE Power absorbs only ultraviolet and infrared light so the coated surface retains the appearance of a conventional premium window, and it is presented as maintaining low-emissivity window performance standards.
Technology
UE Power is a transparent solar coating that selectively harvests invisible ultraviolet and infrared portions of the solar spectrum while transmitting visible light, which the company describes as the only route to true transparency. The coating is composed of light-absorbing dyes derived from non-toxic, earth-abundant materials, comparable to pigments used in fabrics and paints, and is described as patent protected. The company states the coating preserves the performance of low-emissivity windows and the aesthetic properties of conventional glazing.
Go-to-market
The company positions UE Power for applications in commercial and residential buildings, including windows, as well as the surfaces of everyday objects.
