Technology

The Lightweight composite BIPV is a monolithic, lightweight, coloured composite BIPV module based on fiber reinforced composite materials and crystalline silicon. The composite technology in combination with the Click&Go substructure provides one of the lightest self-supporting BIPV technology in the market, with a weight as low as 5 [kg/m2] for 3 [mm]thickness without requiring of additional substrates providing the demanded mechanical resistance.
