Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is shifting from pilot projects to large-scale reality. A small group of manufacturers is driving this transformation by offering architectural products—façade glass, cladding systems, thin-film foils, and solar glazing—that perform as both building components and energy generators. These firms are more than module makers: they deliver integrated solutions with certification, design support, and real projects on the ground. Here are six companies with proven BIPV portfolios that demonstrate how solar is becoming part of the building envelope.

The BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics) market has expanded rapidly due to growing demand for sustainable energy solutions that integrate seamlessly into modern architecture. Below is a non-exhaustive list of top BIPV manufacturers:
