An empirical study of performance characteristics of BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic) system for the realization of zero energy building

After the completion of building, the total amount of energy consumption and the gross generation of BIPV system were 104602.4 kWh and 105266.6 kWh through a year from April 2011 to March 2012, respectively. It was evaluated to achieve zero carbon building because the energy surplus was 664.2 kWh.
