Compared to Mature Overseas Markets, BIPV Has Significant Potential for Increased Penetration in the Future. In developed countries, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) began earlier, with many countries implementing various incentive policies and development plans as early as the late 20th century. For instance, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United States have all established "Solar PV Roof Programs," setting clear targets for building PV installation capacities in the coming years. Read More

Advantages of Cadmium Telluride Photovoltaic Glass CdTe solar photovoltaic glass offers several key advantages that make it stand out in the competitive photovoltaic market: High Efficiency: CdTe solar photovoltaic glass performs excellently in high temperatures and low light conditions with conversion efficiencies reaching 22.1% in laboratories and commercial products typically ranging between 15% and 18%. This ensures high power generation performance under variable light conditions, making it especially suitable for tropical and subtropical regions. Read More

With an understanding of Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) and BIPV technology, innovative thinking and meticulous planning have been applied to the design and simulation of the (AR) educational building BIPV system. Researchers in Saudi Arabia are beginning to explore the potential of BIPV in educational building architecture, considering factors such as building orientation, sunlight exposure, energy demands, and aesthetic integration. (Fig 8. The educational building consists of four floors with large glass curtain walls.) Read More

Jiaxing Train Station ingeniously transformed the "fifth facade" (rooftop) into an "ecological fifth facade" by using solar glass materials. This not only highlighted the aesthetic function of the roof but also served as a bold exploration and experimentation with clean, green photovoltaic technology on building rooftops. The project exemplifies the "green building concept," setting an essential precedent for the construction and transformation of public buildings, including high-speed railway stations, airports, exhibition centers, and shopping malls.

The previous article introduced what is BIPV is and its application scenarios, but why do we strongly recommend BIPV to everyone? The following will bring you the historical background and development process of BIPV, so that you can have a deeper understanding of BIPV and apply it to the construction of our cities and homes.
