Is now the right time to buy replacement windows given new glass tech? – GreenBuildingAdvisor

I ask because of an article in yesterday’s (3/21/25) Wall St Journal titled: “A Piece of Glass Thinner Than a Credit Card Could Solve America’s $25 Billion Energy Problem. New windows can insulate better than most walls, and some can even survive being hit with a two-by-four shot from a cannon”

Here’s the full article (behind a paywall, sorry…) https://www.wsj.com/business/corning-window-gorilla-glass-4f443b07?st=uwgtbs&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

It’s unclear from the article when this will be fully commercialized and they don’t mention the improvement to r or u value specifically. Just that this multi panels, laminated glass can potentially can be warmer than the surrounding walls.

I’ve got a deadline to make a decision so am looking for any concrete info on when these will be available and if it’s really that big an improvement over typical 2 pane glass with low e coating or just incremental….
