Ubiquitous Energy Ubiquitous Energy, Inc. is an American solar energy startup company headquartered in Redwood City, California that designs transparent solar technology to absorb ultraviolet and near infrared light (NIR) (wavelength span of λ= 650– 850 nm) while transmitting visible light through its medium called ClearView Power . Ubiquitous Energy is a privately funded company founded in 2011 by Miles Barr, Vladimir Bulović, and Richard Lunt. Current solar power is created in solar plants that take up lots of surface area far away from where the energy is consumed. It is estimated 15% of the energy is lost during distribution. Ubiquitous Energy's technology allows large cities to be solar plants themselves by converting the windows on buildings into solar energy generators. Ubiquitous Energy is implementing its ClearView Power technology into a wide range of products as an invisible, onboard source of electricity. Some examples of these implementations include mobile devices, windows, an digital signage.
