BIPV Glass Markets: 2015-2022
In our view, BIPV overall is in a transition and must refine its messaging to an end-user base with shifting priorities.
More than ever these products need to be sold, and technologically developed, with an emphasis on aesthetics and
what can be called "smart" capabilities, creating more dimensions along which to compete such as color,
transparency, and substrate conformability.
Where we envision the next stage of "true" BIPV, and sooner rather than later, is in BIPV glass with truly
multifunctional and monolithically integrated products. This future will rely heavily on thin-film, OPV, and DSC
technologies with the promise of lower-cost fabrication to reduce overall costs. We also anticipate a reshaping of
manufacturing strategies and supply chains to develop and deliver these products, building on partnerships already
been forged between alternative PV materials companies and big glass companies.
This report presents the latest trends in BIPV glass, analyzing the evolution of the technology and markets over the
next eight years. We discuss the different types of BIPV glass technology, and the latest developments in PV
technologies, substrates, and encapsulation. We also examine the strategies of the major BIPV glass companies and
their key BIPV partners, and provide some thoughts as to potential changes in supply chains to improve odds of
success.

Plan of the Report
• In the Executive Summary we present a summation of our forecasts and analysis and in Chapter One we set
the stage for the report along with providing the scope, objectives of the report
• In Chapter Two we discuss the progress of the various base PV technologies upon which BIPV products are
built: conventional silicon-based PV technology which has historically dominated BIPV (as it has other solar
PV applications), as well as the arising various alternatives of thin-film PV, OPV, and DSC, the specific
advantages that they promise and how they are progressing toward those ends. This also includes
discussion of substrates and encapsulation technologies, both on the market and still in the development
phase.
• This leads into Chapter Three where we analyze the latest BIPV glass product trends, including what is
happening on the research side as well, with collaborations and university-based efforts. We also examine
the latest BIPV glass installations to showcase what's new and what's resonating from architects down to
building owners.
• In Chapter Four we shift the discussion to the marketplace, and how the evolution of BIPV creates a need to
"think different" for companies to make money. We explore the balance as it exists, and is changing,
between the selling factors of aesthetics and energy, and the external factors that are forcing such changes
in strategy—mainly the changing landscape of subsidies.
• Chapter Five outlines our forecasts for BIPV markets over the next eight years (through 2022), delivered in
multiple formats: by region, by product, by PV technology and substrates, and by type of building markets.
In this chapter we include our forecasting methodology, which includes assumptions about
macroeconomics, pricing, policies and regulatory factors, etc.

Market Forecast
• n-tech Research projects that the market for BIPV glass at just
over $1 billion today will grow to $3.5 billion by 2020 and $6.3
billion by 2022
• The presence and influence of large glass companies (AGC,
NSG/Pilkington, and BGT as examples) will only intensify, through
aforementioned partnerships with PV companies as well as with
building product firms and installers.
• A central question for BIPV glass is whether key PV vendors
(notably Heliatek in OPV, and Dyesol and Oxford in DSC) stay on
target with planned production volumes around 2017-2018.
There is much ado over the new wonder-material perovskite, but
the storyline is the same: whether it too can achieve volume
scales and deliver products to the market in a reasonable
timeframe.
• We think selling BIPV glass as part of a "green" theme is broadly
losing steam with increased scrutiny of regional and national PV
policies. That said, two specific areas seem to be robust: zero-
energy buildings, and highly urban areas. We see revenues for
BIPV glass in zero-energy buildings surging past $800 million in
2018 and more than $2.5 billion by 2022.
• n-tech expects BIPV glass will unlock residential building demand
in a more medium-term timeframe, approaching $200 million by
2018 and surpassing $1.3 billion by 2022

Opportunities & Challenges
Phone: 804-938-0030
BIPV Glass Applications and Opportunities
Application Architectural benefits Drawbacks Opportunities
Skylights
Stimulate architectural design of
light and shadow
Generate greater heat within
buildings in summer as compared
to other PV surfaces such as
facades
At present, skylights constitute the
biggest market for BIPV glass. Ongoing
projects indicate that they still
contribute a significant portion of the
revenue
Facades
BIPV glass in different colors allows
the architect to come up with
innovative glass facades for
buildings.
Vertical orientation and hence
lower incident of solar radiation
compared to skylights
Possibly the biggest market for BIPV
glass in the future
Atrium and
canopies
Ideal for applications where the
building's rooftop area is limited or
shading obstructions limit solar
radiation
Not preferred in bigger commercial
and prestige buildings as of now
A smaller market and should remain so
in the near future

BIPV Market Scenarios
Phone: 804-938-0030
BIPV Market Scenarios
Success Struggle
Penetrate residential and commercial buildings Limited to prestige buildings
Efficiency and reliability improves Reliability issues persist
Cost reduction strategies successful Products still expensive
OPV, DSC, thin-film CIGS increase share c-Si technologies dominate
Multifunctional products arrive and resonate with
designers, installers, and building owners
Evolved products late to market, lack of buy-in across
the value chain
Flexible and rigid products resonate and dominate
Markets can't appreciate value-added features; BAPV
and expensive customization lingers

Key Companies in BIPV Glass
Phone: 804-938-0030
Companies Key to BIPV Glass Success
Company Role Success
AGC, NSG/ Pilkington,
BGT
Partnering for BIPV panels using OPV (Heliatek,
Belectric) and DSC (Dyesol)
Represent how key are major glass companies for BIPV to establish
solid supply chains
Onyx Solar BIPV glass, including façades, skylights, and low-E PV
windows; recent innovation in hexagonal PV glazing
Works with c-Si, a-Si, and CIS/CIGS; distributors across Europe, the
U.S., and newer projects in Asia and Latin America
Heliatek OPV for building façades: glass, concrete, PVC shell Took over as OPV's champion after Konarka exit; aiming for
commercialization probably in a three-year timeframe
Dyesol Initially DSC leader; now fully shifting to perovskite
technology
Targeting utilities and rooftop PV first, then swing to BIPV "in later
development stages"
Next Energy Startup, using solution-processed polymer OPV;
exploring integration into electrochromic windows
Claims to have NDAs and "ongoing conversations" with global glass
manufacturers; still several years away from pilot-line production
Hanergy a-Si for BIPV panels; consolidator of CIGS technologies Hard to say, given lots of uncertainty: order and sales cancellations,
and a lengthy regulatory investigation
