Pilkington Sunplus™ BIPV Pilkington Sunplus™ BIPV provides power generating solutions for vertical and horizontal applications. Pilkington Texture Glass With 21 designs ranging from classic to contemporary, no-one offers a wider choice of attractive patterns.

For that project, Pilkington also supplied its Pilkington Sunplus ™ BIPV glass, which features photovoltaic power-generation technology, turning the windows into an energy source for the building. Achieving a net energy generation performance involves a combination of reduced energy demand and renewable energy supply.

Reduces solar heat gain and offers high levels of natural light to provide comfortable and pleasant environments in which to live and work. Improves the energy efficiency of domestic or commercial buildings whilst enabling the extensive use of glass and the benefit of passive solar gain.

Within the Pilkington Suncool™ Range there are many different performing products, each having a slight tint or even neutral colour tone depending on the specification needed to satisfy your project requirements.

Low-iron NSG TEC™ Sodium Block is used as substrate for solar mirrors in concentrated solar power applications. The sodium barrier layer offers improved product shelf-life and durability and can offer solar mirror manufacturers improved stability.
