Table of content

Emirates Glass, a subsidiary of Dubai Investments, has signed a five-year agreement with Australia’s ClearVue Technologies and is preparing to manufacture innovative solar glazing solutions for the UAE and wider GCC market. Production is set to begin later this year.

How the Technology Works

ClearVue has developed next-generation glass that generates electricity from sunlight while maintaining transparency and high-performance insulation. These panels can be used for façades, skylights, windows, roofs, and even greenhouses.

The solution combines functionality, energy efficiency, and design flexibility, allowing architects and developers to integrate sustainable technologies without compromising aesthetics.

Why It Matters for the Region

Solar façades help buildings reduce reliance on conventional energy sources while enhancing natural light and thermal performance. In the hot climate of the Middle East, such solutions are especially relevant and impactful.

Industry Leaders on the Project

Rizwanulla Khan, Executive President of Emirates Glass, noted that the partnership with ClearVue will allow the company to deliver cutting-edge materials that meet the growing demand for sustainable building solutions.
Doug Hunt, Global CEO of ClearVue, emphasized that the UAE and the GCC are ideal markets for solar façades due to their year-round sunlight and strong commitment to sustainability.

New Horizons for Investors

The UAE is actively integrating green technologies into its real estate sector, increasing property value and driving demand from tenants. Solar façades are becoming not only an environmental solution but also a powerful investment advantage.
