BIPV Solar Glass – Technical & Product Overview

1. Product Introduction

VGC BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic) Solar Glass is designed to combine renewable energy generation with architectural aesthetics, providing an ideal solution for modern commercial and public buildings.

With the large-scale popularization and development of the photovoltaic industry, and the growing social focus on carbon reduction in the construction sector under the guidance of the “Dual Carbon Goals”, BIPV (Building-Integrated Photovoltaics), as one of the representative technologies in the green building field, has gradually emerged as an important development direction.
VGC Glass has accumulated years of expertise in sectors such as rail transit, building curtain walls, and photovoltaic power generation. In the advancement of building-integrated photovoltaics, the company has consistently provided customers in the industry with high-quality, mature, and continuously upgraded glass products. These products can be integrated with both thin-film solar cell modules and crystalline silicon modules.

Features of VGC BIPV Solar Glass
  Anti-glare treatment can be applied to the surface of BIPV glass to avoid light pollution.This is achieved through acid etching or by creating rough, uneven patterns to produce a diffuse reflection effect, and the anti-glare performance is enhanced by increasing the depth of these patterns.
