Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV)

Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) modules. These BIPV modules function, not as an add-on, but rather, as an integral part of the building skin. They can be used just like standard building materials, but with the added value of generating electricity directly from sunlight. BIPV modules provide greatly improved aesthetics and allow savings over traditional building materials and installation.

See Thru

See Thru used as a skylight.

See Thru (previously known as Photovol Glass) is a revolutionary new type of photovoltaic glazing. It is a solar panel with a unique semitransparent finish, similar to tinted glass. Designed in part by architects, See Thru is ideal for use in curtain walls, skylights, canopies, atriums, and other vertical or sloped glazed surfaces. Based on amorphous silicon photovoltaic technology, See Thru is the perfect material for both light management and power generation.

Reasons to choose See Thru

Appearance
See Thru's unique semitransparent finish allows you to create stunning PV installations that look identical to tinted glass. From the interior See Thru features a smooth light grey finish that allows diffused light to enter into the building.

Energy Savings
The laser-etched photovoltaic cells in See Thru simultaneously generate electricity and block the sun's rays. This reduces a building's air conditioning and lighting loads considerably.

Green Building Design
By reducing energy consumption, See Thru effectively curbs the release of CO2 gas into the Earth's atmosphere. And,  See Thru enhances the building's value as an environmentally sustainable facility.

Comfort
See Thru transforms sunlight into delicately diffused light to maintain exterior views and brighten enclosed sp

Light Thru

Solar has never looked so good! Crystal clear Light Thru modules can be used to design striking canopies, atria, skylights, and vertical facades. Light Thru modules use crystalline cells sandwiched between 2 sheets of glass. The gaps between the cells allow light to pass through and provide excellent shaded areas.

Light Thru modules dispel the myth that solar technologies are unattractive or difficult to design into a building. With the flexibility to specify the desired light levels passing through the glass, Light Thru is both a power generator and an aesthetic sunshade in one beautiful package.

Reasons to choose Light Thru

Striking appearance
A combination of crystalline solar cells and glass creates an aesthetically pleasing solar system - becoming a real focal point of a building's design.

Provides Shading
The Light Thru modules are perfect for canopies, porches and enclosures that require some shade. The system can also generate an average of 80 to 100W/m?of power from direct sunlight.

Flexible Design
The Light Thru modules have size and cell types that can be specified by the customer. Cell spacing can be adjusted to vary light levels to the desired effect.

Efficient and Cost Effective

Semi-Shade

Semi-Shade is a standardized product featuring crystalline cells with a clear tedlar backsheet. It is ideal to create cost-effective photovoltaic canopies and facades where a fixed size module can be accommodated.

Reasons to Choose the Semi-Shade

• The Semi-Shade features the same attractive appearance as our Light Thru modules making it a clear choice when aesthetics are a concern.
• Since Semi-Shade is based off the's standard module size it is a highly cost-effective BIPV glazing option.
• Close cell spacing is highly efficient, maximizing energy generation per square meter.
• The Semi-Shade is currently undergoing UL testing.

Just Roof

The Just Roof is an integrated roof photovoltaic system designed to form a complete roof. Just Roof replaces tiles or other roof coverings and is ideal for new homes with gabled or pitched roofs. The Just Roof modules replace all roofing materials (excluding ridges, span and edges of eaves) to create a completely weatherproof roof.

14 Years of Reliability
The Just roof BIPV system has been installed on more than 4,000 homes since its introduction in 1994 and is a certified roofing material. This wealth of experience in the field makes Just Roof the world's most proven and practical BIPV system.

Reasons to choose Just Roof

Aesthetics
The Just Roof integrates seamlessly into the roof of any house or building. Just Roof aesthetics are far superior to that of a standard roof mounted solar panels because Just Roof is manufactured with non-reflective tempered glass and a black anodized aluminum frame with a black back sheet. In addition the modules interlock and the gaps between the modules are covered by a proprietary black anodized aluminium capping rail. The Just Roof looks and acts just like standard roofing materials.

Durability
the Just Roof has multiple weatherproofing features to provide excellent protection from the elements. Each module has multiple water channels for unsurpassed drainage and Just Roof has been fully tested, resulting in excellent moisture, wind, impact, and earthquake resistance.

Black Label

The Black Label is an all-black module that combines the superior aesthetics of our BIPV products into a standard module suitable for mounting on top of roofs or facades. Black Label is ideal for applications such as roofs where the appearance of the system is crucial and a BIPV system is not suitable.

Reasons to choose the Black Label

• Black Label's black frame, cells and backsheet provide excellent aesthetics.
• Black Label can be used in the same way as standard modules with flexible installation.
• Since the Black Label is based off the's standard module, it offers an extremely cost-effective way to own an aesthetically pleasing solar energy system.
