Photovoltaic Solar Panels brochure(PDF) Speciality PV Solar Panels

At CareyGlass Solar we can offer any range of speciality glass to glass photovoltaic solar panels customised to your specific requirements. With the expertise and backing of CareyGlass International, the most experienced and progressive Independent architectural glass company in Europe, CareyGlass Solar can respond to the most complex of challenges.

Benefits of the Speciality Solar Panels

Glass to glass Photovoltaic laminates have no moving parts and therefore have a long life expectancy. They can be used in any building to replace standard glass. They are dual purpose as they provide insulation and shelter while generating electricity

 

Useful Design Points for Speciality Solar Panels

Photovoltaic glass to glass laminates replaces conventional glazing materials whilst simultaneously harnessing energy from daylight to generate electricity.

Photovoltaic glass to glass modules are ideal for a variety of applications including:

  • Curtain Walling/facades
  • Bris soleil
  • Windows
  • Roof glazing

Aesthetics - the panels will add to the visual appeal of the building.

Total design flexibility as regards size, transparency, colour

Panels can be single glazed or double glazed and can incorporate low emissivity glass to enhance insulation

The spacing of the Photovoltaic cells can be specified so you can decide on the amount of light that enters the building.

PIBV can be integrated in a variety of ways such as facades, roofs, atria, windows, curtain walling, glass canopies and structural glazing.

 

Installation Methods for Speciality Solar Panels

BIPV can be integrated in a variety of ways such as facades, roofs, atria, windows, curtain walling, glass canopies and structural glazing.

BIPV enables you to replace the standard glass with an onsite energy generating source.

Talk to use about your aspirations and we will design something accordingly.

Technical Specification for Speciality Solar Panels

The efficiency or output of the speciality photovoltaic solar panel relates to the amount of transparency you want on your design.

The Photovoltaic cells themselves are standard. But we can either increase or decrease the space between the cells within the panel, in order to increase or decrease the transparency of that panel.

CareyGlass Solar can customise the panels to meet your needs. The sky's the limit really! Less transparency gives a higher output. More transparency gives a lower output.

What's a Watt?
Tue, 07 Sep 2010 04:00:00 GMT 2010-09-07T04:00:00Z - The evolving discussion over renewable energy technologies has a tendency to get a bit technical. Most of us who work in the renewable energy space take for granted that many potential customers, investors and partners haven't spent any time in academia studying photovaltaics or wind turbines. In fact, they may not have a background in general energy metrics. Terms that once belonged to the realm of industry-insider jargon are quickly becoming standard. Thus, anyone who wants to follow the renewable versus traditional energy debate needs to know what we mean when we say "watt." Here, then, is a brief crash course in energy lingo.
