Technical FAQs 4

Why do PV curtain walls have a poor visual effect?

Traditional PV curtain wall with standard square-shaped solar cells usually results in a poor visual effect due to the obvious contrast between the opaque silicon solar cells and the transparent glass .

What is a PV curtain wall?

The PV curtain wall usually consists of a sheet of laminated glass embedded with solar cells, a cavity filled with air or argon, and a piece of glass substrate .

Can a curtain wall convert sunlight into electricity?

A curtain wall combining the PV technology can convert sunlight into electricity and become an architectural solar power supply system. However, a shortcoming of the current PV curtain walls with common double-glazed PV modules is the poor thermal insulation performance due to high solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) and U-Value.

Does STPV curtain wall use more energy?

Sun et al. found that STPV curtain wall with 67 % PV coverage ratio exhibited higher energy consumption compared to that with a PV coverage ratio of 33 %. Hence, it is necessary to consider the conflict between cooling and heating demands when designing the STPV curtain wall.
