Research and Markets has included a new report titled ‘Building Integrated Photovoltaics Roofing Markets - 2012’ to its database.
Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is an economic boost to both the building products industry and the photovoltaic industry. BIPV is a new product line for the building products industry, enabling construction companies to include marketable aspects to all types of buildings. For photovoltaic companies, BIPV offers a product strategy to complement their products.
Since this is applicable for all BIPV products, focus is shifting towards BIPV roofing from rooftop photovoltaic panels. Considering all these facts, NanoMarkets has released this report to detect and quantify the market potential for BIPV roofing.
