BIPV: building-integrated photovoltaic systems
With BIPV, replace traditional building elements with photovoltaic materials capable of generating electricity.
Solar energy at the heart of your building
BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics) is a technological revolution in the field of renewable energies and construction. Unlike conventional photovoltaic systems installed on roofs, BIPV modules are directly integrated into the architecture of buildings: pedestrian walkways, bicycle paths, roofs, facades, glass roofs, tiles, windows…
With BIPV, every surface becomes a solar power producer, while retaining its traditional functions of protection, thermal insulation and architectural aesthetics.
100% Belgian expertise
As a Belgian manufacturer of BIPV solar panels, Belga Solar offers customized solutions tailored to the needs of architects, property developers and companies wishing to integrate photovoltaics into buildings.
By choosing Belga Solar’s BIPV solutions, you are opting for :
- Certified Belgian manufacturing, guaranteeing quality and traceability
- Tailor-made photovoltaic solutions for all types of projects
- A 25-year warranty on our integrated photovoltaic modules
- Reduced carbon footprint and maximum use of existing surfaces.
- Customized support, from technical study to final installation.
The different BIPV solutions offered by Belga Solar
1. Integrated photovoltaic roofs
Integrated photovoltaic roofs replace traditional tiles or claddings in whole or in part. This system is ideal for :
- Residential buildings looking for an attractive, high-performance solar roof.
- Commercial or industrial buildings looking for a positive energy building.
- Energy renovation projects with a view to modernization.
Belga Solar's photovoltaic roofs use high-quality solar modules with perfect integration for optimum waterproofing and durability.
2. Photovoltaic facades and solar walls
Photovoltaic facades make it possible to use every surface of a building to generate solar energy. This solution is ideal for commercial and high-rise buildings .
- Photovoltaic glass modules for designer integration with light.
- Ventilated solar walls for both thermal insulation and electricity generation.
- Photovoltaic cladding replaces traditional cladding while offering energy-saving functionality.
3. Photovoltaic roofs and windows
Photovoltaic glass turns windows, skylights or greenhouses into electrical generators. This type of BIPV technology is particularly popular for :
- Modern buildings with large expanses of glass.
- Innovative architectural projects
- Integrated glass roofs in shopping malls and railway stations.
4. Photovoltaic bicycle paths
Solar-powered cycle paths combine soft mobility and renewable energy production.
One innovative solution involves integrating photovoltaic slabs directly into the surface of the path.
The electricity generated can be used for :
- Power street lighting along the route.
- Supply energy to electric bike charging stations .
- Powerconnected sensors or user information panels .
Wattway slabs: generate energy directly on the pavement
As part of the Wattway program developed by Colas, Belga Solar is responsible for the local manufacture of circulable photovoltaic slabs. This revolutionary system transforms traffic surfaces (roads, parking lots, sidewalks, bike paths) into solar power generators. Wattway tiles generate electricity that can be directly consumed by adjacent buildings.
The benefits of Wattway
- No land artificialisation: existing infrastructure (roads, parking lots) is used as a support
- On-site renewable electricity generation
- Compatibility withexisting photovoltaic systems
- Extreme resistance : slabs designed to withstand heavy vehicle traffic, bad weather and mechanical stresses
Why choose BIPV for your construction project?
1. Renewable electricity generation and self-consumption
Integrated photovoltaic systems turn buildings into sources of renewable energy. Produce your own solar-generated electricity, reduce your bills and your dependence on the grid.
2. Modern design and aesthetic integration
Photovoltaic modules integrate perfectly with the building's architecture. BIPV solutions adapt to all architectural styles, preserving visual harmony.
3. An economical, sustainable solution
By replacing building components with integrated photovoltaic panels, you optimize your costs while investing in a solution with long guarantees and stable performance over several decades.
4. Compliance with environmental standards and RE2020
The use of BIPV in construction projects enables you to meet environmental regulations, in particular the RE2020 standard, and the requirements of ecological labels such as BREEAM or HQE, with a view to constructing a positive energy building (BEPOS).
