For architects, there are many types of BIPV and solar energy. Below are some possible uses of solar building design. These cutting-edge solar solutions for architects can be produced using crystalline or amorphous solar technology and used for commercial solar glass applications.

Solar powered exterior wall

Solar energy on the exterior walls of buildings is a great choice. Lightweight solar panels are integrated onto the production surface. Solar powered exterior walls provide insulation, noise reduction, and renewable energy.

Our products can be customized according to your project design by changing the size, shape, glass color, transparency, efficiency, thickness, and weight of the solar panels.

However, building facades typically include windows, glass walls, cladding, balconies, or protective walls. Therefore, according to different purposes, project development can consider different solar facades.

Ventilation solar exterior wall

The ventilation facade has an air gap between the facade cladding and the insulation layer. The entire storefront is open. Natural ventilation on the facade.

In short, ventilated facades protect buildings from weather and create a healthy atmosphere by reducing the direct impact of the sun and heating the walls unlike other similar buildings. The continuous airflow of the building cools it down.

The external coating of a photovoltaic ventilated facade (also known as a ventilated solar facade) contains photovoltaic modules to generate solar energy.

The gap between the insulation layer and the exterior wall cladding cools the solar modules, making the BIPV structure profitable. Heat loss is the main component of solar loss. This structure will also save air conditioning and utilize solar energy for other electrical components.

Skylight

Another standard choice, especially in the commercial sector, is solar photovoltaic skylights. It combines laminated safety glass photovoltaic modules, double-layer or three-layer glass insulated glass components, opens up energy through photovoltaic effects, and the skylight concept.

Photovoltaic skylights provide light for the interior of natural buildings and also serve as insulation. In order to provide the required amount of natural light to the interior of your commercial building, we can modify the transparency of these PV skylights.

Solar roof

Solar powered building roofs are crucial. Most commercial photovoltaic projects are built on rooftops. BIPV technology provides many components that are integrated with the structure to maximize roof space.

Solar roof tiles

Especially on commercial BIPVs, they are all good products. Solar roof tiles meet the commercial needs of roofs and energy production. Roof tiles with solar cells generate electricity like solar panels. Solar roof tiles look like ordinary commercial roof tiles, making it difficult to distinguish them.

Solar roof tiles are an ideal choice for utilizing solar energy for new commercial or maintenance purposes. It has great prospects as it provides a clean energy alternative to traditional solar panels for high-end businesses. We can customize this technology by installing concrete solar roof tiles, wooden tiles, or solar slate according to the type of roof.

Solar powered parking/canopy

Solar parking lots, also known as solar canopies, are a common small building element used to increase the utilization of solar energy. For several reasons, solar powered parking lots or canopies are an excellent choice for BIPV.

For example, they can provide shade garages, gardens, buses, and train stations, which are most commonly used as outdoor living spaces or commercial venues.

In addition, compared to other BIPV applications (sometimes limited by architectural design), they can be more optimally oriented to achieve maximum energy in terms of horizontal and tilt angles. In addition, it usually provides a large amount of space, making it very suitable for installing as many solar panels as possible.

They can be applied to household, commercial, industrial, and even urban environments, such as solar photovoltaic canopies on roads.

The solar photovoltaic canopy is the last popular building element that can maximize the solar power generation area. Multiple factors make solar photovoltaic canopies an excellent choice for BIPV. For example, for whatever reason, they provide shade, whether it’s for gardens, bus and train stations, or their most popular uses such as garages.

Solar-powered greenhouse frame

When the roof is not suitable or sufficient to meet the energy needs of homeowners or business owners, solar panel trellises are becoming increasingly popular as a way to generate solar energy. This concept achieves optimal results in all scenarios by enhancing the solar panel array on the framework.

A solar panel greenhouse is a shading structure that uses solar panels to generate electricity. It is usually placed in gardens or parking lots. Solar powered sheds are becoming increasingly popular because they provide a way to generate electricity without using fossil fuels.

The working principle of a solar greenhouse is to use solar panels to convert sunlight into electrical energy. The electrical energy is then used to power the lights and other equipment connected to the trellis.

Solar powered shelters are a great way to reduce your dependence on fossil fuels, and they can also help you save on electricity bills. It provides a great space for solar power generation, unaffected by weather conditions such as rain or snow, and can be a cute way to show off your solar investment.

Many sturdy materials come with standard kits and unique designs. Most materials, from aluminum, transparent to pressure treated wood, are designed to achieve the best balance of aesthetics, economy, and practicality. Some companies offer a 10-year warranty period comparable to that provided by solar panel manufacturers.

Although they can be adjacent and look like part of a house or business, trellises are usually not connected to other building structures. They can also be removed to create a popular location for nearby living and entertainment areas, such as lakes or swimming pools.
