SolarWindow CEO Letter to Shareholders Describes Market and Commitment to Commercialization
|
| Columbia, Md. - December 10, 2015 - The following is a statement by John A. Conklin, President & CEO, SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: WNDW):
Dear Fellow SolarWindow Shareholder:
With
your support, we’ve made groundbreaking discoveries and developed
possibly the biggest single breakthrough in clean energy –SolarWindow™.
Every day, sunlight streams through billions of windows—more than two million acres of “skyscraper” glass worldwide.

|  | Transparent SolarWindow™ Unit Capable of Generating Electricity
Until now, there has never been a technology able to convert those solar rays into electricity on tall towers like SolarWindow™.
Using
SolarWindow™ coatings, entire buildings could be turned into power
generators thereby reducing electricity costs by up to 50% per year.
CNBC has said, “SolarWindow™ could give our cities the ability to harvest their own energy needs.”
We
have demonstrated before the U.S. Congress, have set records for size
and power, and won the Energy Business Review “Energy Innovation Award.”
SolarWindow™ may well be one of today’s most disruptive renewable energy innovations.
Our
independently validated modeling shows that when SolarWindow™ is
applied to all sides of a 50-story building, the results are:
- 50 times greater energy than conventional rooftop solar panels
- 15 times the environmental benefits over traditional rooftop solar energy collectors
- Electricity generated from natural, shaded, reflected, and even indoor light and
- A one-year financial payback
In
addition, the global push for emissions reductions and clean energy
solutions contributes significantly to the market opportunity for the
SolarWindow™.
As noted by us in Engineering.com, SolarWindow™
could provide the equivalent reductions in carbon dioxide emissions
produced by as much as 770 acres of forest sequestering carbon dioxide
when modeled for a 50-story building.
We believe that the future truly is bright, as the use of solar energy keep growing worldwide.
Why
this continued growth? The answer is simple--because the adverse
environmental impact of traditional energy sources and financial costs
of electricity keep increasing.
Commercial buildings alone
consume nearly 40% of the electricity generated in the U.S. This is one
reason why we’ve targeted commercial buildings as our initial customers.
“This is the kind of product that architects, developers,
customers, and energy advocates have long awaited,” said industry
executive, and now a SolarWindow Board of Advisors member, Patrick
Sargent.
During 2015 we received recognition in numerous other
publications including: The Baltimore Sun, The New York Daily News, Fast
Company, ComputerWorld and National Geographic, to name a few.
Looking
forward, 2016 for our shareholders looks to be a landmark year, as we
devote our focus on bringing this first-of-its kind technology to market
as fast as possible.
In 2016, our mission is to formalize
industry relationships, potentially giving us instant commercial reach
-- a boon for our shareholders.
Of course, you can expect us to
continue our long-standing tradition of proactive shareholder outreach
to keep you apprised of our major technology and market, and business
developments.

Thank you for your loyalty and ongoing support.
I wish you and all those near and dear to you, a wonderful Holiday Season and the very best for 2016 and beyond.
Very truly yours,
SOLARWINDOW TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
John Conklin,
President & CEO
