What are Building Integrated Photovoltaics?

Roof mounted or architecturally integrated solar power systems providing zero-carbon energy and a highly visible investment into sustainability are called BIPV. Building integrated photovoltaics are new ways to improve building performance with attractive design.
While standard PV solutions are often used in residential, solar-farm applications and stand alone systems like solar lighting, BIPV provides the architect with completely new possibilities to incorporate solar technology into buildings.

Our building integrated photovoltaic modules create a world of possibilities. The wide variety of elegant forms, colors and optical structures of cells, glass and profiles enables creativity and a modern approach to architectural design. It specifies to deliver an energy-efficient, innovative and prestigious project and to set new architectural standards for the future by combining elegance with functionality. PV modules can be incorporated into the building vertically, horizontally or at an angle.

Benefits

Cooperating with the leaders of the building and roofing materials industry we are able to provide state-of-the-art solar solutions for bitumous, membrane and metal roofs. As a provider of solar photovoltaic solutions we combine different technologies to develop the best solutions for low-slope and contoured roofs as well as recently closed, unsettled landfill areas.

Industrial Applications

Reducing cost and carbon, increasing competitiveness – with PV-systems “on-top” of facilities and factories

In today’s challenging economic situation, industrial manufacturers need to meet ecologic requirements, while reducing cost and inefficiencies to maintain competitive. In addition unused roofs are lost space - offering enormous potential for carbon emission reduction and contribute to end-customer requirements for green supply chains.
