Dubai's high-rise buildings perfect match for building-integrated photovoltaics

Scientists in the Middle East have simulated the use of different building-integrated PV systems on Dubai's high-rise buildings. They found that for buildings with more than seven floors, BIPV may be superior to rooftop power generation.A group of researchers in the Middle East has assessed how building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) may help reduce electricity consumption in high-rise buildings in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. The academics explained that the city has 25 buildings of more than 300 meters, while 14 additional high-rises of this scale are currently under construction. "In ...
