Curtain walls are not limited to commercial buildings; they can also be used in residential projects. They provide an aesthetic and functional solution for large glass facades, allowing natural light and offering energy efficiency. How Do Curtain Wall Systems Contribute to Energy Efficiency and Sustainability in Buildings?
Xiong et al. [ 31] develops a power model for Photovoltaic Curtain Wall Array (PVCWA) systems in building complexes and identifies optimal configurations for mitigating shading effects, providing valuable insights for the application of PVCWA systems in buildings.
After sensitivity analysis of the cost of photovoltaic curtain walls and the efficiency of solar panels, it was found that as the cost increases, the economy of photovoltaic curtain walls gradually deteriorates, and improving the efficiency of solar panels can improve the cost-effectiveness ratio of each facade.
Today's curtain walls not only provide structural support but also offer insulation against heat loss or gain and noise reduction. They can even incorporate features such as solar panels or shading devices for enhanced energy efficiency.
