1. Introduction Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) is an efficient means of producing renewable energy on-site while simultaneously meeting architectural requirements and providing one or multiple functions of the building envelope , .
One of the reasons is that the power generation function is integrated with the building material function. There are still many technologies that have not substantially broken through the limitations . The current regulations related to building-integrated photovoltaics are aimed at photovoltaics. 7. Discussion and Hypothesis 7.1.
The advantage of integrated photovoltaics over more common non-integrated systems is that the initial cost can be offset by reducing the amount spent on building materials and labor that would normally be used to construct the part of the building that the BIPV modules replace.
Majority of the systems are found underperforming based on specific yield benchmark. Future improvements and research directions for enhanced testing has been provided. Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) has enormous potential for on-site renewable energy generation in urban environments.
