1. What is BIPV?

BIPV, namely Building Integrated Photovoltaic: a photovoltaic power generation system that is designed, constructed and installed at the same time as the building. It perfectly integrated with the building, also known as ‘constructive type’ and ‘building material type’. As a part of the external structure of the building, it not only has the function of power generation, but also has the function of building components and building materials, and can even enhance the beauty of the building, so as to form a perfect unity.

2. What are the advantages of BIPV?

1. It’s clean energy, green environmental protection, and reduce carbon emissions.

2. It is beneficial to reduce the construction cost and make the building more technological.

3. To meet the lighting requirements of buildings, it is safer than installing photovoltaic panels directly.

4. It can effectively reduce building energy consumption and realize building energy saving.

5. Meet the requirements of architectural aesthetics and enhance its practical value and aesthetic value.

6. It can reduce electricity bills and minimize the increase in energy costs.

7. It can be integrated with the battery to save electric energy.

The global BIPV market revenue is expected to reach USD 11.56 billion in 2027. The overall PV installation market grew by 24% in 2019 and is expected to maintain a positive curve for the next few years. Because BIPV technology has more advantages than BAPV, the application space is also wider. However, in the development of this market, opportunities and pain points coexist, and we need to explore and improve step by step.
