Completed in 2025 in Edmonton, Canada, the SunRise Residential retrofit has earned global attention as the largest solar panel mural in the world. The project, developed by Maclab Development Group and executed with Mitrex’s eFacade PRO plus technology, transformed a 1970s high-rise into both a functional renewable energy generator and a striking public artwork. Recognised by the Guinness World Records, the installation demonstrates how BIPV can merge aesthetics, cultural expression, and energy performance in large-scale building retrofits.

The IEA PVPS Task 15 report, "Successful Building Integration of Photovoltaics: A Collection of International Projects," is currently the most comprehensive and insightful resource on Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV). This report showcases some of the most beautiful and innovative examples of BIPV projects from across the globe, offering a detailed look into how solar energy can seamlessly blend with architectural aesthetics while achieving sustainability goals.
