Advantages
LSG solar modules manufactured with the innovative laminated safety glass technology feature numerous architectural and structural advantages over conventional PV modules:
Architecture
Photovoltaic building integration using LSG PV modules allows for outstanding architectural solutions, which could not be accomplished with conventional PV modules.

Building photovoltaics are a clear statement in favour of ecologically sustainable energy supply.
Customisation
We have introduced to the PV technology what is common practice for architectural glass. Each PV module is tailor-made according to the customer’s specifications.
Special formats
trapezoid, triangular and circular models can also be manufactured.
Shatter-proof
Photovoltaics in combination with laminated safety glass technology creates shatter-proof PV modules, which are often required by regulations for building construction.
Overhead safety
Shatter-proof LSG modules can also be situated in overhead areas, such as atrium glazing, for instance.
Shadowing
PV modules can provide ideal shadowing for a building in summer, and thus significantly reduce cooling energy requirements.
Economic efficiency
Photovoltaic modules on a facade or roof replace conventional building materials. The resulting savings today already make photovoltaics an economically attractive solution for many applications.
Climate protection
A building with a 100 m² solar facade saves the global climate 4 to 5 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
