Reducing the Effects of Climate Change Using Building-Integrated and Building-Applied Photovoltaics in the Power Supply

This book looks at the success and continuing potential of photovoltaic (PV) technology in combating climate change by harnessing solar energy through building-integrated (BIPV) and building-applied photovoltaics (BAPV). With PV global capacity soaring from 940 GW in 2021 to 1100 GW in 2022 and proj...
