Solar energy is radiant energy and heat from the Sun is harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as building integrated photovoltaic, solar heating, solar architecture, sola. Solar photovoltaic module uses for building began appearing in the 1970s. Aluminium-framed solar PV modules were connected to, or mounted on, buildings skin that were usually in remot. Over the last few years, there has been a proliferation in the market of rigid BIPV panels designed to function as roofing tiles and, in some cases, exterior wall cladding. These include lar.
