Abstract

The integration of photovoltaics into façade systems provides the opportunity for a distinctive, visual character as well as contributing electricity to the building needs. This paper will discuss some design and performance issues, using three systems in the UK as examples. These include crystalline and thin film technologies and both inclined and vertical façade profiles.
