BIPV solar cells

Glostrup Stationspark features the largest integrated BIPV roof installation in Scandinavia, covering approximately 7,500 m² of Solartag roofing. Instead of traditional rooftop panels, the solar solution is fully integrated into the architecture, forming part of the building envelope. Solartag The system delivers a total capacity of 750 kWp and is expected to generate around 589,000 kWh of electricity annually, contributing significantly to the building’s energy supply. Solartag The matte black roof elements blend seamlessly with the architecture, demonstrating how large-scale solar energy production can be combined with a clean and coherent architectural expression.

The roof of a house is not only a durable protection against wind and weather. As part of the dream home, it also acts as an eye-catcher and rounds off the architectural design of the entire property. This is what the owners of this home thought, too, who took the opportunity to upgrade their house aesthetically and in terms of energy technology as part of a roof extension to gain living space. Conventional solar panels were out of the question for them. The visual appearance of the house and the most ecological building style possible were the top priorities for the owners. At the same time, optimal energy generation was to be achieved by covering as much of the roof surface as possible with solar tiles. A clear case for the products from... More

This family in Moss wanted to carry out energy-saving measures in their house. They reinsulated the roof and walls. As a crowning achievement, they installed SunStyle solar roof tiles on both the house and garage. The garage roofs have an east/west orientation, which provides good electricity production in the morning and afternoon. Houses face north/south where the south-facing surface has active panels that provide plenty of electricity during the day. The facility provides good production throughout the day. In addition, the roof of the garage and house has a high roof angle. This results in good production on sunny days in autumn and winter. On the north side of the house, they installed dummy panels that do not produce electricity, but... More

The largest Dutch BIPV facade installation on an industrial building. Covering 540 square meter, the installation utilizes TULiPPS innovative Click&Go installation system. The solar faccade consists of 240 frameless solar panels and 256 aluminium composite cassettes from Plastica. The estimated annual energy (kWh) production of the Van Caem BIPV faccade is 62.000 kWh per year, equal to the average annual energy consumption of 18 households. Within the EnergyMatching project, TULiPPS, Onyx, FerroAmp, and Plastica cooperated to realize the installation. Caption BIPV Click&Go System The Click&Go BIPV facade is prefabricated and delivered with solar panels as a complete package. The Click&Go mounting system is designed to... More

Circular Tiny House - CTH*1 - Straw.Clay.Timber.Light How to build sustainable? A very current question - that moves a lot of people, as well Master students of the course „DESIGN and MAKE sustainably“ guided by Prof. Dr. Rainer Hirth at Coburg University of Applied Sciences and Arts. The project started with a number of seminars about problems coming from the building sector. According to an UN report from 2020 [1], the construction sector is responsible for 38 % of all CO2 emissions globally; for an immense and constantly growing consumption of resources and, for example, in Germany for around 55 % of all waste[2]. The constantly increasing demand for living space per capita - the average is currently 48 qm in German... More
