Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4v9gv8/global_building) has announced the addition of the "Global Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) Market 2015-2019" report to their offering.
The Global BIPV market to grow at a CAGR of 15.4% over the period 2014-2019
BIPV are PV materials that are used in place of conventional building materials as an auxiliary source for power. BIPV integrates solar energy with that of building design. They are used in various parts of building envelops such as roofs, facades, and skylights. BIPV technology can be incorporated either during the construction of a new building or it can be retrofitted to an old building.
One key trend upcoming in this market is increased focus on energy efficiency in buildings. BIPV installation enables considerable energy conservation, which will generate more revenue for the market. Moreover, installation of BIPV systems can also help in attracting incentives from governments to encourage use of alternative sources of energy.
According to the report, solar energy consumption worldwide has increased and thus has led to a corresponding increase in BIPV installations, which is expected to continue during the forecast period. Increased awareness about BIPV capabilities and use of solar energy has increased the demand for BIPV installations worldwide.
Further, the report states that seasonal fluctuations in availability of solar power are hindering market growth. Solar power generation depends heavily on energy derived from the sun during off-seasonal periods. Consequently, buildings using BIPV technology are compelled to find an alternative source for power generation. This will be an additional expenditure for consumers.
