Solarvolt Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) Glass

Oct. 9, 2024

The 2023 PIA-winning Solarvolt glass modules combine the aesthetics and performance of Vitro Glass products with CO2-free power generation and protection from the elements. Solarvolt BIPV modules can enhance various components of commercial building exteriors, including balustrades and balconies, overhead glazing and skylights, facades and opacified spandrel glass—all while passively generating solar power, reducing air conditioning costs, and even replacing conventional cladding materials. 

PIA Judge’s Comment. “A tasteful approach to integrating renewable energy harvesting units into a building exterior skin.”
