About as integrated as you can get. These #unitizedcurtainwall assemblies are UL2703 and UL1703 Listed. The first of their kind. Each lite is fully insulated to meet the demands of the California building code while also providing energy. #bipv #bi
#5901sunset , the City of LA’s first #BIPV job that fully encloses the building envelope. PV cells are integrated into the insulated glass units that are installed within unitized curtain wall. The PV curtainwall can be seen on the left side
Stumbled upon some solar panels complimenting some architecture today. #theartofsolar #lumossolar #lumoslsx #bipv #solar #solarpanels #solarpower #solararchitecture #solarisbeautiful
Solar cells serving as a multifunctional frit. Why not use the energy you want to block. This an @energyglass.eu installation in Porta Susa that does just that. The #slopedglazing system features multiple cell densities that optimize shade. . . .
The concept behind the design of the Azerbaijan pavilion at the Milano Expo 2015, designed by @arassociati and @simmetriconetwork for the Republic of Azerbaijan, represents architecture as positive energy and proactivity, seeking to harmonize and pro
Arguably the most impressive solar tracker in the world. Also a unique representation of the multi-functional benefits of #architecturalsolar . This #solarsail moves with the sun and shades the glass facade throughout the day while collecting optima
Is this #BIPV ? Honestly who cares, it is #architecturalsolar and that is all that matters! Some say #BIPV must enclose the envelope but that thinking turns a blind eye to the most cost effective and simple ways of achieving #netzero goals. This p
This beautiful building integrated installation is located at the terminus of the #MontBlancSkyway , the tram gains 2,162m in elevation from #Entrèves (1300m) to #Helbronner (3,462m). The ride takes a breathtaking 10 minutes. @energyglass.eu w
Yes, solar and architecture can have a symbiotic relationship! Here is an @energyglass.eu installation in Porta Nuova Milan that does just that. The #pointfixed #slopedglazing system with #sunpower cells in conjunction with a screen printed #frit fi
