What are the physical properties of photovoltaic curtain wall (roof) system?

The physical properties of the photovoltaic curtain wall (roof) system mainly include wind pressure resistance, water tightness, air tightness, thermal performance, air sound insulation performance, in-plane deformation performance, seismic requirements, impact resistance performance, lighting performance, etc.

Can a photovoltaic module be used in façade completing?

PV can be incorporated into façade completing, or replacing, traditional vision areas or spandrel glass. A photovoltaic module, not only produces electricity using sun power, but it has to behave as all the other curtain walling components, so it must provide one or more of the following performances:
