What is a PV curtain wall?

The PV curtain wall is the most typical one in the integrated application of PV building. It combines PV power generation technology with curtain wall technology, which uses special resin materials to insert solar cells between glass materials and convert solar energy into electricity through the panels for use by enterprises.

How can curtain walls improve the performance of a building?

Integration scenarios are evaluated through SWOT analysis and performance criteria. The performance of curtain walls is enhanced by integrating adaptive technologies. Energy efficiency and the reduction of carbon emissions have become the main climate goals for newly constructed or existing buildings.

How can adaptive technologies improve the performance of curtain walls?

In the building sector, curtain walls (CWs) account for the majority of unwanted solar heat gain and consume most of the energy used. In this context, adaptive technologies (ATs) offer a wide range of alternative solutions to improve the performance of CWs.
