Technical FAQs 4

What is a solar insulated glass unit?

Solar-insulated glass units that Metsolar produces can vary in composition, size, fixing options, and light transmittance. Adjustments are based on the specific project requirements to meet the regulatory environment of installation. IGU with embedded solar cells can be used for both façades (curtain walls) or roofs (skylights).

How does a double-glazing PV curtain wall work?

In the hybrid system, the ventilated double-glazing PV curtain wall provided reheat energy for the subcooled supply air while effectively cooling the PV façade. It efficiently facilitated solar-electric conversion and excess heat recovery (HR), thereby enhancing the electrical and thermal performance of the building.

What is PV IGU curtain wall system?

PV IGU Curtain Wall System manufacturing with double or tripple glazzed units for BIPV solar facade integration.

What are glass curtain walls?

Glass curtain walls are lightweight aluminum-framed facades housing glass panels. These glazing systems don’t support the weight of a roof or floor. Instead, gravity loads and wind resistance transfer from the surface to the building’s floor line. Curtain walls are often part of a building envelope or comprises one part of a wall system.
