Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV): Technological Integration and New Trends in Green Building
Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) is a green building technology that deeply integrates solar power generation technology with building structures. Its core lies in embedding solar panels into building components such as roofs, facades, and windows, enabling photovoltaic modules to serve both power generation functions and building envelope structures, thereby unifying architectural aesthetics with energy utilisation. Compared to traditional distributed photovoltaic systems, BIPV offers higher integration and architectural functionality, making it a key means of achieving net-zero energy building targets.
