Compared with ordinary curtain walls, PV curtain walls can not only provide clean electricity, but also have the functions of flame retardant, heat insulation, noise reduction and light pollution reduction, making it the better wall material for glass commercial buildings. (1) On-Grid PV Curtain Wall Power Generation Schematic Diagram
Curtain walls are becoming a popular application for photovoltaic glass in buildings. They allow for owners to generate power from areas of the building they had never thought of. Buildings become a real power plant, keeping their design appeal, aesthetics, efficiency and functionality.
The PV curtain wall is the most typical one in the integrated application of PV building. It combines PV power generation technology with curtain wall technology, which uses special resin materials to insert solar cells between glass materials and convert solar energy into electricity through the panels for use by enterprises.
Photovoltaic curtain walls allow buildings to generate additional power without compromising aesthetics, functionality and views. They also provide thermal comfort and avoid the greenhouse effect. How much money does a standard curtain wall pay back? The answer is zero.
According to the literature review, VPV curtain walls exhibit significant potential for energy savings owing to their excellent thermal insulation performance . Furthermore, the shading effect of PV cells can alleviate discomfort glare and enhance occupants’ visual comfort .
Vacuum integrated photovoltaic (VPV) curtain walls, which combine the power generation ability of PV technology and the excellent thermal insulation performance of vacuum technology, have attracted widespread attention as an energy-efficient technology.
