Application
Building-integrated PV paired with storage for commercial buildings and renovation projects.
Solution
BIPV + ESS
Building-integrated PV paired with storage for commercial buildings and renovation projects.
Project lens
Sunket Supply scope
Product supply, inverter matching, European warehouse coordination and project-scoped support.
Best fit
Commercial and industrial buyers, installers and distributors planning energy projects in Europe.
The challenge
Generation that is part of the building
For projects that require building-integrated PV, the specialist facade or roof package must be engineered together with the electrical and storage design.
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
A locally engineered BIPV package can be coordinated with Hithium storage when the electrical interfaces and approvals are confirmed.
- 01
BIPV surfaces
A specialist BIPV provider designs the facade, roof or shading elements to the building and local requirements.
- 02
Electrical interface
A qualified local designer confirms the BIPV strings, inverter topology, protections and grid-connection scope.
- 03
Storage
A Hithium 261 kWh storage architecture can be evaluated for surplus-energy shifting after interface compatibility is reviewed.
- 04
Building loads
The approved controls coordinate generation, storage, loads and grid exchange within the project limits.

What Sunket Supply supplies
Reference equipment
A practical, project-matched equipment stack
The final architecture may use an integrated Hithium PCS or the confirmed-compatible Hithium DC cabinet and Growatt WIT hybrid-inverter route. Equipment is selected against the site design.

BIPV boundary
BIPV modules are not part of the current Sunket Supply product range and must be sourced and engineered by a qualified specialist.
Storage system
Hithium 261 kWh liquid-cooled storage, with the integrated PCS or external Growatt hybrid-inverter architecture selected per project.
Interface coordination
Product documentation and storage-interface review; the BIPV designer and local qualified parties retain responsibility for the building envelope, installation and approvals.
FAQ
Frequently asked
Is BIPV only for new buildings?
BIPV may be considered for new builds and some renovation or re-cladding projects, subject to structural, fire, planning, electrical and building-envelope review by qualified local specialists.
Is BIPV custom for each project?
BIPV is normally engineered around the building geometry, envelope performance and local approval requirements. A specialist provider should therefore be involved early.
Can BIPV be combined with rooftop PV?
It may be possible to coordinate BIPV, conventional rooftop PV and storage, but the inverter topology, string design, protections and control interfaces must be confirmed for the specific equipment.
