Unlike conventional photovoltaic systems installed on roofs, BIPV modules are directly integrated into the architecture of buildings: pedestrian walkways, bicycle paths, roofs, facades, glass roofs, tiles, windows

What is a BIPV solar system?

Building Integrated System : BiPV Solar Panels forms the roof structure itself, therefore lesser materials required to be transported to site. The gap between panels and roof is also eliminated, preventing the Nested overlapping design, similar to conventional metal deck roofing construction is incorporated.
