PHOTOVOLTAIC CURTAIN WALL

 

This curtain wall, installed in Malta, is made of low-e amorphous silicon photovoltaic glass modules with a degree of semitransparency of 20% (L vision), enabling the passage of light into the interior and also the enjoyment of the views.

 

This type of glass filters out 99% of the ultraviolet radiation and up to 95% of infrared radiation. It's Solar (g) Factor is between 5% and 40%, depending on the degree of semi-transparency, this being perfect for the prevention of the greenhouse effect within the buildings.

  • electricidad generadaElectricity generated in 35 years  - 67,135 kWh
  • puntos de luzTotal lighting points operating 4 hours per day in 35 years - 132 lighting points
  • emisiones CO2 evitadasCO2 emmisions avoided  in 35 years - 45 Tons of CO2
  • barriles petroleo ahorradosBarrels of oil saved in 35 years - 40 barrels per m2

 

 

In this case, the glass also comprises an air gap to provide greater thermal insulation for the building.

 

The installation generates 3 kWp and is comprised of 124 differently-sized and shaped glass modules which were made to measure for this project.
