Onyx Solar PV Glass
Solution
Onyx Solar PV Glass
Founded in 2009, Onyx Solar is a global leader in photovoltaic glass solutions for building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). With over 500 projects across 60 countries, we harness sunlight to generate clean energy while enhancing thermal insulation, acoustic control, and filtering ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation. Our customizable aesthetics cater to diverse architectural needs.
As a top photovoltaic glass manufacturer, Onyx Solar’s glazing integrates seamlessly into building façades, curtain walls, atriums, canopies, and walkable floors.
Our solutions boost energy efficiency, lower costs, and reduce carbon footprints by converting sunlight into clean electricity and providing thermal insulation. We also offer tailored solutions for existing buildings, including photovoltaic glass installations for rooftops and façades.
Crystalline Silicon glass is the best choice for projects where maximum
power output per square meter is required,The power capacity of
this type of glass is determined by the number of solar cells per unit,
usually offering a nominal power between 100 to 180 Wp/m². This varies
according to the solar cell density required for the project. Finding the
right balance between natural light transmission and nominal power
is key to achieving energy efficiency goals.
Crystalline Silicon glass is made up of 158.75" x 158.75 mm c-Si (Crystalline
Sillicon Glass) solar cells. Although these cells are inherently opaque,
they can be spaced apart to varying degrees, allowing for adjustable
light transmittance tailored to specific design needs. The PV glass can
thus offer a transparency range from almost 0% VLT as much as 75%
if requested.
Depending on the design intent, solar cells can be fully exposed so
that they can be seen; otherwise, they can be hidden partially, or
almost totally, creating a panel that displays a uniform color and looks
like a conventional facade material.
These design variables play a role in the performance of the product,
since adding a frontal color will diminish the light transmittance of the
frontal glass.
