NOVADECI CENTER · QUEZON, PHILIPPINES
RENOVATION
Onyx Solar supplied its amorphous silicon photovoltaic glass, integrated as a photovoltaic ventilated façade in the Novadeci Convention Center situated in Quezon City, Philippines. Each laminated safety tempered glass harvest renewable energy and features a black rear frit that renders an opaque appearance to optimize harmful radiation blocking. The Novadeci Convention Center stands as a significant office, commercial building, and convention center in Quezon City. The property is owned by Novadeci, a leading real estate company established in the Philippines.
The photovoltaic glass selected for this project was an ideal choice, considering the building's need for energy efficiency and sustainability in the tropical climate of the Philippines. Its ability to reach a nominal power of 57 Wp per square meter ensures that the building generates a substantial amount of clean energy while maintaining a sleek, modern aesthetic. The 0% visible light transmission provides total opacity, making it perfect for the ventilated façade, which prioritizes shading and privacy while still delivering high-performance energy generation. With a g-value of 22%, the photovoltaic glass significantly reduces solar heat gain, helping to maintain a comfortable indoor environment and minimizing the need for air conditioning. By integrating this cutting-edge photovoltaic solution, the Novadeci Convention Center aligns with the latest advancements in sustainable architecture, enhancing both the environmental and economic value of the property while setting a benchmark for energy-efficient commercial buildings in the region.
