Ubiquitous Energy Ubiquitous Energy Ubiquitous Energy, Inc. is an American solar energy 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.

Ultraviolet communication in butterflies some species this distinction is not seen at all times, and UV patterns may vary visually depending on the position of reflecting light. This can be seen in the common brimstone, where males will exhibit male or female patterns of iridescence with different positions, distances, and angles of light - this is known as the "gynandromorphic" effect. The ultraviolet communication system employed by butterflies is also used an indicator of male sex to other rival males in the butterfly, "Colias eurytheme". In this species, only males are able to reflect ultraviolet light off the dorsal side of their wings, while
