Global Building-integrated Photovoltaics Market Introduction

Building-integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) is the integration of photovoltaics (PV) into the building envelope. PV modules serve the dual function of building skin, i.e. replacing conventional building envelope materials and power generators. BIPV is widely adopted in the construction of new buildings as a principal source of electrical power. Increasing number of countries are accepting the Paris Climate Change Agreement. This is fueling the demand for building-integrated PV systems. The Paris Climate Change Agreement mandates countries to increase the share of renewable sources of energy in their total power generation, thereby providing ample opportunities for the adoption of the BIPV technology. 

According to the International Energy Outlook 2017, total energy consumption in the world is expected to rise from 575 quadrillion British thermal units (BTUs) in 2015 to 736 quadrillion BTUs in 2040, an increase of 28%. Thus, surge in demand for electricity across the globe, rise in consumer awareness about renewable energy, and increase in adoption of BIPV products and solutions across the world are some of the major growth factors of building-integrated photovoltaics market.

Supportive Government Initiatives and Policies Fueling Building-integrated Photovoltaics Market

Countries in major regions across the world are enacting policies to move toward ultra-low energy buildings in order to address climate challenges. The European Union (EU) Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires all new buildings to be nearly zero-energy buildings (nZEB) in all EU member countries by the end of 2020. The U.S., Japan, and Korea have also established ZEB policies and goals, and some leading subnational governments, most notably the States of California and Massachusetts in the U.S., have set ambitious ZEB targets. For instance, the U.S. State of California has set an ambitious goal that ‘all new residential buildings in California would be zero net energy (ZNE) by 2020, and all new commercial buildings would be ZNE by 2030’. Japan has established targets for ZNE in new public buildings by 2020 and all newly constructed buildings by 2030. In 2014, Korea established the ‘Activation Plan of Zero Energy Buildings’ and a roadmap to achieve targets, along with a financing strategy and subsidies for pilot projects. 

Such supportive policies are driving the building-integrated photovoltaics market.

Building-integrated Photovoltaic System Enhances Esthetic Value of Buildings

Building-integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) products provide additional functionalities to a building as compared to traditional construction materials. BIPV technology converts a building from being an energy consumer to an energy producer. Construction technology is required to be merged with BIPV technology in order to achieve this. Photovoltaic modules serve the purpose of building exteriors such as roofs, façades, or skylights. BIPV helps buildings in terms of weather protection, thermal insulation, and noise protection. Rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are gaining popularity due to the scarcity of ground space and the availability of unused roof space. BIPV technology reduces total building material costs, as BIPVs do not require brackets and rails. Hence, its popularity has been rising consistently due to affordable building-integrated photovoltaics costs. Designers and architects are using these products with innovative methods, while building-integrated photovoltaics manufacturers are creating new products to cater to market requirements. Companies such as Sanyo, SCHOTT Solar, Sharp, and SUNTECH are working on new BIPV products for facades, skylights, and windows

Increase in Usage of Crystalline Silicon in Building-integrated Photovoltaics to Drive Market

In terms of technology, the global building-integrated photovoltaics market has been split into crystalline silicon, thin film, and others. The crystalline silicon segment dominated the market with around 68% share in terms of revenue in 2021. Crystalline silicon cells can be integrated into building roofs by using smart mounting systems, which replace the sections of the roof while keeping its integrity intact. This type of integration does not entail large investments and provides high efficiency. The thin film segment is projected to grow at a steady pace during the forecast period due to rapid technological advancements, which are leading to the introduction of advanced products.

High Demand for BIPV Facades to Augment Global Building-integrated Photovoltaics Market

In terms of application, the global building-integrated photovoltaics market has been split into roofs, facades, windows, and others. The facades segment held around 48% share of the global market in 2021. Demand for BIPV facades is significantly high, primarily in developed countries with a well-established electricity distribution system. Demand for the integration of photovoltaics with facades is driven by the increase in their installation in the commercial sector. The roofs segment is also expected to grow significantly during the forecast period. Photovoltaics integrated with building roofs are known to exhibit efficiency due to improved incidence of light on the roof surface.

Rise in Number of Retrofit Projects Bolstering Demand for BIPV in Commercial Establishments

In terms of end-user, the global building-integrated photovoltaics market has been divided into residential, commercial, and industrial. The commercial segment accounted for around 68% share of the global market in 2021. Demand for building-integrated photovoltaics in commercial establishments is increasing due to the rise in number of retrofit projects using these installations. High emphasis on the esthetic appeal of solar energy harnessing systems, primarily in commercial establishments, is likely to fuel the demand for BIPV. Demand for building-integrated photovoltaics in industrial applications is expected to be driven by their rise in usage in order to reduce the reliance on non-renewable energy sources.

Regional Outlook of Global Building-integrated Photovoltaics Market

In terms of volume, Europe held 43.06% share of the global building-integrated photovoltaics market in 2021. Favorable outlook toward renewable energy coupled with consumer awareness for the same in countries across Europe is likely to drive the market for BIPV in the region during the forecast period. Germany and Italy are increasingly emphasizing the usage of solar energy. This is expected to boost the adoption of building-integrated solar panels in these countries during the forecast period.

The market in Asia Pacific is also projected to grow during the forecast period. Demand for BIPV products and solutions is anticipated to rise in China and Japan owing to the increase in efforts by governments to adopt these solutions. Customers in the region exhibit high demand for renewable energy sources in order to reduce the impact of non-renewable energy sources on the environment.
