SkyCool Systems
Radiative cooling allows for cooling below ambient air temperature that can function without the need for electricity.
SkyCool Systems is a startup that has developed a thin film coating and rooftop cooling panel. Combined, they reject heat through radiative cooling even below ambient air temperature while under direct sunlight. Radiative cooling is an emerging technology able to function without the need for electricity. The technology exploits the fact that a surface looking skyward emits more thermal radiation than it receives. The thin film acts as a mirror, reflecting the Sun’s light and heat thereby keeping fluid-filled panels below the film cool. The panels can be connected to an air-conditioning and refrigeration system so it runs more efficiently.

Have you initiated contacts or technological transfer agreements?The WIPO GREEN database is a free, solutions oriented, global innovation catalogue that connects needs for solving environmental or climate change problems with tangible solutions. The database consists of user uploads of needs and solutions, green technology patents from the WIPO Patentscope database, imports from select partner organizations, relevant knowledge material, and relevant expert profiles. Some of the unique features of the database are: Always-on AI-assisted auto-matching, user uploads tracing and alerts, full-text search for solutions based on long need descriptions, and the Patent2Solution search function for finding commercial applications of a patent. Free registration is required for uploading.

Please help us by letting us know if you have initiated contacts or technological transfer agreements or similar through use of the database.
