BIPV Technology

BIPV Technology is a technology that integrates solar power generation (PV) products into buildings. It proposes a new concept of "building generated energy", i.e., the integration of buildings with photovoltaic power generation, whereby photovoltaic arrays are placed on the surface of the building envelope to generate electricity.
Photovoltaic modules appear in the form of a building material, and the photovoltaic array becomes an integral part of the building. Examples include photovoltaic tile roofs, photovoltaic curtain walls, and photovoltaic light roofs.
The advantages of BIPV are as follows.
(1) Diversified design, making the appearance of the building more attractive.
(2) Thermal insulation, waterproof and moisture-proof, energy saving and environmental protection.
(3)Avoiding high roof temperature, reducing air-conditioning load, and improving the indoor environment
(4)Structural safety and reliability.
(5)Convenient installation connection of PV arrays, shortening building construction time.
(6)Integration of installation and building construction saves installation costs.
(7) Decentralized power generation, avoiding transmission and distribution voltage loss (5%~10%), reducing transmission and distribution investment and maintenance costs.

Project type
Financial subsidies will focus on supporting solar photovoltaic building integration installation of electricity generation is mainly used to solve the building energy projects from the project type includes three categories:
(1) building materials type: refers to solar cells and tiles, bricks, coils, glass, and other building materials composite together to become inseparable building components or building materials, such as photovoltaic tiles, photovoltaic bricks, photovoltaic roof coils, glass photovoltaic curtain wall, photovoltaic light roof, etc.
(2) Component type: refers to the photovoltaic components combined with building components or independently become building components, such as standard ordinary photovoltaic modules or photovoltaic modules customized according to architectural requirements to constitute canopy components, sunshade components, and so on.
(3) Combined installation with roof and wall: refers to installation on flat roofs, overhead installation on sloping roofs, and parallel installation on walls.
