This project is part of the refurbishment of San Anton Market, located in the centre of Madrid, where a 168 m2 skylight, comprised of transparent low-e photovoltaic glass, has been entirely integrated in the building.
The system enables the generation of electricity in situ, while providing multi-functional bioclimatic properties such as the filtration of solar radiation, and at the same time enhancing interior light and providing thermal and acoustic insulation thanks to its double-glazing.
The glass employed is made of amorphous silicon, with a semitransparency degree of 20% (L vision), and the total installed power capacity is 6.5 kWp. This photovoltaic skylight generates over 7,700 kWh per year and prevents the release of 5 tons of CO2 . For this reason it has been selected as a sustainable project of reference by the European Commission.
