Solarbreaker Photovoltaic Facade Shutter

Building Materials and Construction Components Design Solarbreaker Photovoltaic Facade Shutter by Jarosław Markowicz Solarbreaker is a photovoltaic facade shutter that turns building surfaces into energy producing elements. The system is based on extruded aluminium profiles onto which solar panels are mounted. Each panel is tilted at forty five degrees for higher efficiency, and one module of one square metre can power sixteen LED bulbs. Assembly requires almost no tools, because the profiles are placed on the mounting and lock under their own weight. Cables are hidden inside the profiles. Besides facades, the same components can form fences, barriers and blinds.
