The energy efficient window has been a progression of technology for almost 100 years. The technology first began in the 1920’s and has been building with momentum ever since. Architects first started trying in 1920 to block the sun from coming through the windows on newly built skyscrapers leading up to the thin-film photovoltaics that we see being used today.

Today more and more homeowners are interested in energy efficient windows in order to save money on utility costs. In this infographic we breakdown the history of energy efficient windows for those who want to learn about this blooming technology.
