Advanced experimental techniques to measure the spectral absorption and oxidation state of silicate glass melts are described. Exemplary results of the characterisation of industrial glass melts by these two methods are presented. The technological impact of the high-temperature optical properties and oxidation state of glass melts on radiative heat transfer and on the final glass colour is discussed.
