PHOTOVOLTAIC PV AND GLASS CURTAIN WALL SYSTEMS
Rome builds solar glass project
From 20 December, official inauguration day – and in perfect timing to receive the thousands of faithful and visitors who will flock to the Eternal City for the opening of the Jubilee Year – the glass “roof” of the Vatican Museums’ “ Courtyard of the Corazze ” entrance will unveil its new green and eco-friendly guise, thanks to the construction, in the record time of six months, of a roof system with latest-generation photovoltaic glass panels.

Solar glass surface
Depending on their properties and manufacturing methods, photovoltaic glass can be categorized into three main types: cover plates for flat-panel solar cells, usually made of rolled glass; thin-film solar cell conductive substrates, coated with semiconductor materials typically just a few micrometers thick on the surface of flat glass; and glass lenses or reflectors used in concentrating photovoltaic systems.
