Columbia, MD – September 7, 2017 – SolarWindow Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: WNDW) 
today provides an important update. That’s most importantly on the manufacturing,
marketing and also the product fabrication targets. All for its electricity-generating
products. Especially for tall towers and skyscrapers.

This update also provides further details about the company’s key in-place and planned
initiatives. All most noteworthy for the upcoming quarters. Moreover, this follows
on the heels of its recently announced production agreement. That’s with Triview
Glass Industries LLC. For it’s an award-winning custom fabricator. Most interestingly
located in suburban [Los Angeles](https://greenlivingguy.com/2011/09/los-angeles-selects-evergen-solar-powered-lights-popular-city-bike-path/).

## Commerical Energy Consumption

Commercial energy is consuming almost 40% of all the electricity generated in the
U.S.  For that’s at a cost of over $140 billion. So commercial buildings are ideal
customers. Especially for the company’s electricity-generating windows.

In addition, SolarWindow™ products could reduce electricity demand by 30%-50% in
tall towers. Also it would provide a one-year financial payback. That’s according
to independently-validated engineering modeling.

### SOLARWINDOW PRODUCTION AGREEMENT

[SolarWindow](https://greenlivingguy.com/2018/02/solarwindow-announces-raynergy-tek-collaboration-pursuing-high-volume-production-of-electricity-generating-windows/)
has entered into a Process Integration and Production Agreement with Triview Glass
Industries, LLC, which will serve as the company’s regional glass fabricator.

With its state-of-the-art plant, producing twelve specialty glass product lines,
Triview is the company’s first-ever production site.

Important goals and features of the Agreement and SolarWindow partnership with Triview
include:

Integration of SolarWindow™ coatings and methods into the Triview manufacturing 
processes;

Fabrication of specific SolarWindow™ electricity-generating products at commercial
scale, at Triview;

Development of any patents, intellectual property, and new inventions or discoveries
will be owned by SolarWindow; and

Existing processes at Triview are highly-adaptable to the development of new SolarWindow
™ product lines. For that’s especially those featuring tempered, laminated, and 
[insulated glass products](https://greenlivingguy.com/2014/01/dow-building-insulation-products-achieve-recertificatio/).

Triview manufactures a wide variety of architectural and decorative glass products
using specific production methods and processes which support the fabrication of
SolarWindow™ electricity-generating glass.

#### **MARKET DEPLOYMENT**

In preparation of meeting immediate manufacturing, marketing, and expanded product
application goals, SolarWindow is pleased to provide the following key in-place 
and planned initiatives:

Q4 (2017) – Q2 (2018): Capital raise for integration of SolarWindow ™ at Triview,
the acquisition of coating and ancillary equipment for installation at Triview to
fabricate electricity-generating glass products, and for working capital.

SolarWindow will provide ongoing updates on fabrication and production targets, 
and additional commercial collaborations.

Q2 – Q3 (2018): Follow-on capital raise for the build-out of technical and production
personnel; and purchase and installation of additional manufacturing equipment, 
raw materials and supplies.

Ongoing updates on product lines; sales and marketing, and distribution channels
will be provided by SolarWindow.

#### **TECHNOLOGY**

Novel SolarWindow technologies for generating electricity on glass are the result
of numerous years of research and development. Among important breakthroughs which
have enabled today’s announcement:

SolarWindow scientists and engineers applied layers of the company’s liquid coatings
on to Corning® Willow® Glass and laminated them under conditions that simulate the
high pressure and temperatures of the manufacturing processes used by commercial
glass and window producers. The result is a bendable glass ‘veneer’, as thin as 
a business card, which generates electricity;

SolarWindow™ electricity-generating coatings withstand real-world environmental 
conditions. That’s including extreme temperatures variations.

Engineers confirmed the ability of SolarWindow electricity-generating coatings to
withstand the high-stress rigors of the ‘autoclave’ manufacturing processes. Those
used by commercial glass and window producers. Autoclave-manufacturing is a common
method of production for flat, curved, tempered and solar glass fabrication.
