Solution

BIPV + ESS

Building-integrated PV paired with storage for commercial buildings and renovation projects.

The challenge

Generation that is part of the building

For new builds and renovations, the facade and roof can generate power instead of just enclosing space.

  • Limited usable roof area on commercial buildings caps conventional rooftop PV.
  • Architectural and planning requirements rule out standard panel arrays on visible surfaces.
  • Owners want sustainability credentials and energy cost reduction in one move.

How it works

How BIPV + storage works

Building-integrated PV generates on facade and roof; storage makes that energy usable.

  1. 01

    BIPV surfaces

    PV integrated into facade, roof or shading elements generates power.

  2. 02

    Inverter

    Generation is converted and routed to building loads.

  3. 03

    Storage

    Surplus is stored in 8,000-cycle cells for evening and low-light periods.

  4. 04

    Building loads

    On-site demand is met first; the grid is backup.

FAQ

Frequently asked

Is BIPV only for new buildings?

No. BIPV suits both new builds and renovation/re-cladding projects where the envelope is being renewed.

Is BIPV custom for each project?

Yes. BIPV is engineered to the building geometry and design intent, which is why early involvement helps.

Can BIPV be combined with rooftop PV?

Yes. Facade BIPV and conventional rooftop PV can feed the same inverter and storage system.
