ClearVue PV

What ClearVue PV does

ClearVue Technologies Limited (ASX: CPV) is an Australian building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) company that develops transparent and opaque solar glazing products for commercial building envelopes. Its core technology embeds fluorescent nano/micro particles into the interlayer of insulated glass units (IGUs), combined with a proprietary spectrally selective rear coating, allowing the perimeter solar cells to harvest diffuse and direct light while the glass remains largely transparent. The product portfolio spans ClearVue Solar Vision Glass (transparent, up to 60 W/m² peak, up to 80% VLT), Solar Spandrel, Solar Cladding, Solar Balustrade, Solar Skylight, Solar Greenhouse, and the ClearVue-Helios line of metal-backed rooftop and carpark BIPV panels (up to 220 Wp/m², up to 605 Wp per carpark panel).

The business monetises through three interlocking streams: (i) direct hardware sales of BIPV products to building developers, architects and property owners; (ii) licensing of its technology to IGU manufacturers and façade contractors (e.g., Alutec, Kukyoung, AIT Group, Tomita Technologies, HT Glass, MS Glass) who produce and distribute ClearVue-branded products within designated territories, generating royalties and certification fees; and (iii) partner programme services including manufacturing certification, technical support and ongoing quality assurance. Customers span commercial real estate (Tattersalls Club Sydney, ISPT/Enex100 Perth, Leicester Street Centre Melbourne), residential modular housing (Prefabulous FabZero), agriculture (Aqua Ignis Sendai, System USA greenhouses), education (Murdoch University research greenhouse) and government/institutional (World Bank HQ Abuja). Pricing is project-specific and quote-based.

Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales (with dedicated regional BD leads in North America and a Technical Sales Manager for Europe) and a certified licensee network across approximately a dozen countries. Manufacturing is asset-light: ClearVue licenses its process to existing IGU fabricators with only ~5 minutes additional cycle time required, and the company has demonstrated continuous production of 80 Generation 2 IGUs on industry-standard equipment. The company is headquartered in West Perth with a showroom in Perth, a North American HQ in San Jose (opened June 2024), and a Hong Kong joint-venture footprint through LandVac (announced May 2026). Total capital raised since 2023 includes an A$2M WA Government grant, an A$4.6M global investor placement (October 2025), and an up-to-A$3M non-dilutive R&D facility from RiverFort (March 2026).

Core offering

ClearVue PV designs, develops, and licenses building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) products that turn glass façades, windows, spandrels, cladding, balustrades, skylights, and rooftops into electricity-generating surfaces. Its flagship transparent Solar Vision Glass integrates patented fluorescent particle interlayers and spectrally selective coatings into standard insulated glass units, preserving visible light transmission while delivering up to 60W/m² peak power. The portfolio is complemented by metal-backed ClearVue-Helios panels for rooftops and carparks, with manufacturing and distribution executed through a global network of certified licensee partners.

Product overview

ClearVue PV offers a comprehensive suite of Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) solutions that transform building envelopes into renewable energy-generating assets. The product portfolio centers on solar-integrated glazing technologies including Solar Vision Glass (transparent windows for façades), Solar Spandrel and Solar Cladding (opaque BIPV panels for architectural surfaces), Solar Balustrade, Solar Skylight, and Solar Greenhouse products. The ClearVue-Helios line extends energy generation to rooftops and carparks with metal-backed BIPV panels. All products share patented photovoltaic technology that integrates solar cells into glass while maintaining transparency and aesthetics. The company also offers a complete solar building envelope solution that combines multiple products (the 'ClearVue Power Façade™') for whole-building energy generation.
