Solar Panel Facade depends only on sun's radiation.Rautaruukki
Helsinki Finland
Jun 02, 2011
Integrating photovoltaic system into fully glazed facade, Solar Panel Facade converts sun rays into energy, which is used to meet building's needs or is fed into electricity grid. Since system relies only on radiation, not on sun's warmth, power can be produced even in areas with no direct sun rays. In snowy areas and next to water, system increases output from reflected rays. Based on thin-film technology, PV panels have even black coloring and use no visible fasteners.
