Building Integrated Photovoltaics At Onyx Solar we provide tailor-made photovoltaic glass in terms of size, shape, transparency, and color for any curtain wall design. Photovoltaic curtain walls transform any building into a self-sufficient energy infrastructure and enhance the building's architectural design.
Plate Glass: A basic, flat glass used in many applications, though less common in modern solar panels. Tempered Glass (Most Popular and Cost-effective): Highly durable and shatter-resistant, making it the most widely used glass in solar panels.
In transparent PV smart glass, this process is fine-tuned to ensure that the glass remains transparent while efficiently generating electricity from non-visible light. TPV smart glass, unlike traditional solar panels, mainly converts UV and IR light to electricity, making it ideal for large-scale applications like powering entire buildings.
As a manufacturer of PV glass itself, Onyx Solar showcases the potential of building-integrated photovoltaics in its own facility. The factory features a complete PV glass envelope, including the roof, facades, and skylights.
Photovoltaic glass integration transforms factory roofs and walls into power-generating assets while maintaining structural integrity and functionality.
