Eglon House incorporates a photovoltaic skylight in the upperEglon House incorporates a photovoltaic skylight in the upper floor; Photovoltaic solar glasses are fixed in the triple glass ceiling lights so that it simultaneously reduces brightness and generates energy.
The project consists of 13 units of amorphous silicon PV glass with the project consists of 13 units of amorphous silicon PV glass with an argon chamber based on a low degree of transparency. In addition to providing on-site power, they also provide natural light, ultraviolet and infrared radiation filters, and permanent protection against London weather conditions.
The dimension of this triple laminated glass for this skylight is 1,100 x 3,000 mm (3.61 x 9.84 ft) and you have a power per unit of 154 Wp.
The skylight glass goes to aluminum frames that are supported by exposed steelwork.
