OPTICAL, THERMAL AND PV PROPERTIES FOR EXAMPLES SELECTED

We have manufactured the first photovoltaic glass in the market that comes with low-emissivity properties, that provides UV and IR filter, that promotes natural light, and that generates power. All our solutions offer a multi-functional value.

The multifunctional properties of photovoltaic glass surpass those of conventional glass. Onyx Solar photovoltaic glass can be customized to optimize its performance under different climatic conditions. The solar factor, also known as “g-value” or SHGC, is key to achieve thermal comfort in any building. Onyx Solar’s ThinFilm glass displays a solar factor that ranges from 6% to 41%, and makes it an ideal candidate to achieve control over the interior temperature.

Onyx Solar photovoltaic glass also offers a wide range of U-Values, according to the architectural spec. We just follow the design intention and manufacture the glass to meet these specifications. Accordingly, we offer single laminated, double and triple glazing, Air and Argon chambers, and other configurations.

Low-E photovoltaic glass configurations are nearly endless, however, in the following table, we show you our most popular configurations for crystalline and amorphous silicon technologies, along with their optical and thermal performance, their visible light transmission and their power.
