This medium transparency photovoltaic curtain wall allows natural light to pass inside while generating clean and free energy for the building.
The photovoltaic installation has been carried out along with the renovation of all the school's facilities called "Looking to the Future".
The new facilities include large spaces for education with new classrooms, the incorporation of modern common service areas.
The photovoltaic curtain wall located in the Picadilly building will be the link between all the buildings, improving the flow of people at the entrances and exits.
This photovoltaic curtain wall has become the most important piece of "The Looking to the Future" project that seeks to turn this building into a sustainable and energy efficient school.
