Transparent solar panels as construction material
We offer state-of-the-art transparent solar panels for use as construction material. The current solar architecture has to fulfill requirements that can be in mutual contradiction. The user of the building wants to have maximum visual contact with the outside. This is often accomplished with glass, which can involve:
- Building overheating during the summer
- High winter heating needs
- Anti-glare protection to maximize comfort
- General energy balance of the building
Clean buildings are smart
Clean green buildings use transparent solar panels as primary elements in facades, ceiling lights, and awnings. Integrated Photovoltaic Construction (BIPV) systems reduce energy costs, provide glare protection, thermal insulation, and play a vital role in reducing greenhouse gases.
Solar modules generate direct current that the inverter converts into alternating current. The inverter connects the photovoltaic system to the grid, the most effective and economical way to use solar electricity for a building. In general, most of the energy is consumed by turning on and plugging loads in the building. Excess energy is fed into the grid to obtain credit.
Solar panels use the existing support structure, so no additional material or energy is needed.
