Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) are transforming how buildings harness solar energy by seamlessly blending solar technology with façades, windows, and other structural elements. A common misconception among building owners is that BIPV installation requires a complex electrical setup. This case study challenges that belief, showcasing how both eFacade PRO and eFacade LITE from Mitrex provide accessible, flexible installation options for sustainable energy solutions.
For those looking to integrate BIPV in a way that works with existing electrical systems, eFacade PRO offers a solution that’s both efficient and straightforward. In this case, a typical 50kW eFacade PRO system demonstrates how BIPV can be installed with minimal complexity:
This streamlined approach with eFacade PRO ensures that the electrical requirements are straightforward, reducing both time and space needed for installation in a larger, commercial-grade 50kW system.
For building owners who prioritize ease of installation, eFacade LITE offers an even simpler, plug-and-play option. This innovative system eliminates visible panel-to-panel wiring, further reducing the complexity of setup. Here’s what makes eFacade LITE distinct:
eFacade LITE is particularly suited to projects demanding rapid installation without compromising on functionality, making it a strong choice for both new constructions and retrofits.
Both eFacade PRO and eFacade LITE maximize building space by integrating solar panels into surfaces like façades and windows. Unlike traditional rooftop arrays that occupy valuable real estate, these BIPV systems provide sustainable energy without disrupting the building’s layout or aesthetics. In this case, the components were placed compactly on the building’s rooftop, preserving the design and minimizing spatial impact.
Mitrex’s BIPV offerings give building owners flexible options tailored to their needs:
By offering both eFacade PRO and eFacade LITE, Mitrex enables building owners to adopt sustainable energy in a way that aligns with their preferences—whether that means integrating with traditional electrical setups or choosing a simplified, wire-free solution.
