Abstract
- Building fenestrations are the key components maintaining the connection between building exterior and interior. However, they are also the weakest allowing heat loss, gain and light. To tackle the enhanced building energy demand, active and passive both ways must be included. Benign energy-generating components and passive energy-saving are both concomitantly possible using photovoltaic (PV) window fenestration. In this work, three different generations PV based fenestration integrated photovoltaics (FIPV) have been reviewed to understand how effective FIPVs are for low energy building. Later advanced technologies suitable for FIPV applications are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
