Project description
Instead of tiles on your roof, try a solar panel
Some solar power systems can be seamlessly integrated into the building envelope and be part of a building’s façade, roof or windows. Such building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) can contribute to achieving net-zero energy buildings and provide low electricity costs while maintaining high-quality architectural design. But there are obstacles hindering the increased installation of BIPV. The EU-funded Be-Smart project will aim to overcome them. It will support the industrialisation of new materials and processes for the manufacturing of multifunctional BIPV elements. It will also work to improve the manufacturing process and allow a stronger market deployment. To reach builders and architects, the project will develop a business model and real-case demonstrators.
