SOLAR LOUVERS, FINS & BRISE SOLEILS

A louver is an architectural or mechanical element consisting of a series of blades, which can be either fixed or adjustable, designed to permit airflow while preventing the entry of unwanted substances like water, debris, and dirt. Commonly placed in walls, doors, or windows, louvers play a crucial role in regulating airflow and enhancing a building's ventilation system. They are widely utilized to effectively manage both airflow and air quality within a structure.

Onyx Solar’s photovoltaic brise soleil offer a cutting-edge approach to integrating energy generation into architectural designs. This advanced solution allows building owners to harness solar power while improving both aesthetics and energy efficiency.

Our solar shading systems use a combination of amorphous and crystalline silicon photovoltaic glass, tailored to meet diverse design needs and energy requirements. Seamlessly integrated into standard commercial frameworks, our frameless PV glass is installed by specialized glazing and electrical contractors.

Choose from various visible light transmittance (VLT) levels to optimize both shading and energy output. A well-designed solar shading system incorporates semi-transparent PV glass for effective shading and opaque glass to maximize energy production and maintain visual consistency.

This technology not only generates clean energy but also reduces solar heat gain and shields occupants from harmful UV and IR rays, enhancing overall thermal comfort.

By integrating photovoltaic sunshades, you contribute to sustainable architecture, lower CO₂ emissions, and reduce your carbon footprint.

Explore how our solar shading solutions can elevate your building's performance and environmental impact.

Onyx Solar’s photovoltaic sun shading solutions, such as louvers, fins, and brise soleil, offer a cutting-edge approach to integrating energy generation into architectural designs.

• Integrated energy generation and shading: Unlike traditional materials, photovoltaic sun shading systems provide not only shade but also generate renewable energy. These systems create a more efficient, sustainable solution by transforming passive architectural elements into active energy producers while controlling solar heat gain.
• Energy optimization for bioclimatic performance: These systems enhances a building's energy efficiency by reducing cooling demands. Adapting to the building’s natural surroundings, ensuring the right balance between shading and solar power generation.
• Customized natural light management: With adjustable visible light transmittance levels, these solutions allow for the precise control of daylight while maximizing energy output. This ensures a comfortable indoor environment without compromising energy goals.
• Improved thermal comfort and protection: By filtering out harmful UV and IR radiation, they protect the interior from excessive heat and sun damage, enhancing the building's overall thermal performance while reducing the need for artificial cooling.
• Sustainability aligned with bioclimatic architecture: Each one of them integrate seamlessly into the architectural design, reducing the building’s reliance on external energy sources. This promotes environmental sustainability by minimizing energy consumption and aligning with green building standards.
