Solarvolt ™ BIPV glass systems by Vitro Architectural Glass can be integrated into most standard glass building systems, making them particularly suitable for façade and other exterior applications. Every building has unique requirements, and Solarvolt BIPV glass systems can fulfill any building façade need.
At Saint-Gobain we want to help our customers to decarbonize their buildings. This is why we offer, with specific partners, Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) solutions, turning the façade to a source of energy. BIPV panels are designed solar modules that replace conventional façade coverings and are integrated in the building skin.
Photovoltaic glass façade solutions, also known as solar glass systems, are ideal for integration in both existing buildings and new construction. They are individually adapted to requirements depending on façade type, façade grid, construction type, building height, and location. These solutions can be produced as both cold and warm façade solutions.
BIPV panels are designed solar modules that replace conventional façade coverings and are integrated in the building skin. More than just traditional covering, they deliver not only protection against the elements and aesthetics, but also renewable energy to the building.
Customized glass-glass solar glass systems, which are solar panels with solar cells arranged between two glass lites, can be installed with most conventional glass building systems. Tailor-made solar systems comply with all design requirements for glass façades.
The electrical installation of the photovoltaic glass consists of two parts: the Direct Current (DC) and the Alternate Current (AC) one. All the electrical infrastructure required for the installation to generate power is called the Balance of System (B.O.S.) The B.O.S. mainly consists of the following components:
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market share, driven by streamlined permitting processes and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 15-25%. Europe follows closely with 32% market share, where standardized container designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with China's manufacturing scale reducing container prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years. Major projects now deploy clusters of 20+ containers creating storage farms with 100+MWh capacity at costs below $280/kWh.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar storage container performance while reducing costs. Next-generation thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures with 40% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $80/kWh to $45/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple containers to operate as coordinated virtual power plants, increasing revenue potential by 25% through peak shaving and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and gas detection systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for container-based projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple container additions at just $210/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show 20ft containers (1-2MWh) starting at $350,000 and 40ft containers (3-6MWh) from $650,000, with volume discounts available for large orders.
