Electrochromic windows, which provide dynamic control over
daylighting, glare, and thermal comfort, represent a potential direction in
sustainable construction practices. This paper examines cutting-edge
electrochromic window technologies and how they might improve building occupant
comfort and energy efficiency. Electrochromic window technology has improved
significantly because of the combination of smart materials and advanced
production procedures. This allows for precise and quick control of tinting
levels to maximize daylight use and minimize solar heat gain. Additionally,
breakthroughs in clear conductive coatings and electrode materials have
improved the performance and lifetime of electrochromic windows by addressing
important issues with transparency, durability, and response time. This paper
examines the latest scientific discoveries and technological advancements in
the sector, encompassing creative materials like metal oxides, polymers, and
nanocomposites, along with inventive manufacturing techniques like roll-to-roll
processing and inkjet printing. Furthermore, the possibility of combining
electrochromic windows with smart controls and building energy management
systems is investigated, emphasizing chances for combined energy savings and
enhanced indoor air quality. This paper seeks to educate architects, engineers,
and politicians about the revolutionary potential of electrochromic windows in
promoting human-centered and sustainable built environments.
