BIPV System
BIPV System is a way to use building surfaces like roofs or walls to make electricity from sunlight, while still keeping the building safe from weather and looking good. In architectural integration, BIPV panels can be made in different shapes, colors, and levels of transparency, so they can fit into many building styles. Designers can use BIPV glass for skylights or facades, which lets natural light in and makes power at the same time. BIPV panels can be part of shading devices, like sunshades or louvers, to help control indoor temperature and save energy.
