Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) are dual-purpose: they serve as both the outer layer of a structure and generate electricity for on-site use or export to the grid. BIPV systems can provide savings in materials and electricity costs, reduce pollution, and add to the architectural appeal of a building. Though they can be added to a structure as a retrofit, the greatest value for BIPV systems is realized by including them in the initial building design.

Building-integrated PV systems are planned during the architectural design stage and are added during initial construction. Building-added PV (BAPV) is planned and built during a retrofit. Both BIPV and BAPV lack the racks and mounting equipment of traditional PV systems.

Bifacial modules produce solar power from both sides of the panel. Whereas traditional opaque-back sheeted panels are mono facial, bifacial modules expose both the front and backside of the solar cells. We use Bifacial PV cells to enhance power generation and to increase overall efficiency.
