الأسئلة الشائعة

While 100% transparent solar panels are still emerging, semi-transparent and partially invisible solar panels are already being used in windows, facades, and skylights. Transparent solar panels currently have a much lower level of efficiency compared to standard monocrystalline solar panels, with most fully transparent technologies achieving only 1-5% efficiency. Our Wuhan project’s ≥18.8% efficiency represents cutting-edge semi-transparent technology that balances high power generation with 45% light transmission, providing the ideal combination for architectural applications requiring both energy generation and natural lighting.

A BIPV installation is when the photovoltaic collectors are an integral part of the building envelope. They can either replace exterior shell components or be integrated into them, unlike traditional systems that are simply mounted on top. In these applications, the glass system replaces conventional building panels and functions as external weather protection for the façade. Our project transforms 7,200㎡ of facade and 2,400㎡ of rooftop skylights into power-generating building elements, serving dual functions as both architectural components and energy generators.

The efficiency of has been widely accepted for self-cleaning coating due to low refractive index, thus giving high transparency above 85% to the coated glass in the UV–vis region. The 9,600㎡ installation benefits from self-cleaning surface technology and professional-grade weather sealing. Regular maintenance includes quarterly visual inspections, annual electrical system testing, and professional glass cleaning every 6 months. The integrated monitoring system provides real-time performance data, enabling predictive maintenance and immediate fault detection across the entire facade system.

The 7.2-year payback period is competitive for BIPV installations considering the dual benefits of building envelope replacement and power generation. Traditional curtain wall replacement plus separate solar installation would cost significantly more. The project generates annual electricity cost savings of ~$110,000 while reducing overall building operating costs by 40%. The 60% self-sufficiency rate for exhibition center electricity demand demonstrates excellent performance for public building applications.

The bifacial power generation technology in the facade glass achieves double-sided light reception, capturing both direct sunlight and reflected light from surrounding surfaces. This increases total energy yield by 15-25% compared to single-sided systems, particularly effective in urban environments with reflective surfaces. The 1,560,000 kWh annual generation benefits significantly from this technology, especially during morning and evening hours when sunlight hits the vertical facade surfaces at optimal angles.

The smart dimming system automatically adjusts the glass transparency based on indoor lighting requirements and solar intensity, maintaining optimal balance between natural illumination and power generation. During peak sunlight hours, the system can reduce transparency to maximize energy production while preventing glare. In lower light conditions, it increases transparency to enhance natural lighting, reducing artificial lighting needs. This intelligent control contributes to the 40% reduction in overall building operating costs.

The project serves as a benchmark BIPV application for public buildings in Central China, demonstrating the feasibility and benefits of integrating photovoltaic technology into modern architecture. It has driven 20+ technology parks in Hubei Province to initiate green building renovations and promoted formation of BIPV industry technology innovation cluster in Wuhan Optics Valley. The dual certification as “National Green Building Innovation Award” and “Smart Building Demonstration Project” provides credible technical standards for nationwide science venue green renovations.

The exhibition center uniquely showcases its own technology through real-time power generation data displayed on interior screens, making the building itself a living exhibit of green energy technology. Over 100,000 annual visitors receive hands-on science education about BIPV technology while experiencing its benefits through comfortable, naturally-lit exhibition spaces. The transparent photovoltaic glass becomes interactive educational content, demonstrating how modern buildings can generate their own clean energy while maintaining architectural aesthetics and functionality.
