Recently, CSCEC unveiled the list of its first batch of industrialized products, which includes 11 major products, such as the "building good house", and launched a special column to introduce the fourth theme - Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV), a solution that seamlessly combines energy use with architectural beauty.
BIPV refers to the integration of a "photosynthesis" system directly into the building. The photovoltaic modules themselves serve as building materials (such as curtain walls or rooftops), functioning both as power generators and structural elements, blending perfectly into the architectural design.
CSCEC's self-developed LIGHT series of lightweight photovoltaic modules are made using aerospace materials and ultra-thin glass, creating a "super skin" that is as light as a feather. These modules ensure strength while achieving integration of photovoltaics into the building. The outdoor ceramic glazing process precisely replicates the texture of stone and aluminum panels with 99% accuracy, transforming the photovoltaic modules into the "second skin" of the building's exterior. The light transmittance is optimized to present natural light and shadows, making it indistinguishable from traditional building materials. The product's "invisible engine" technology optimizes the arrangement and encapsulation of crystalline silicon, allowing each square meter of the module to generate energy equivalent to planting 12 fir trees annually. With an impressive 25-year lifespan, this solution offers an innovative approach that combines high-efficiency power generation with architectural beauty.
