Requirements on BIPV installations as part of a future energy system are discussed with respect of regulations and standardization. Recommendations are made on approaches to monitor and validate meteorological and electrical data to ensure BIPV system output. Finally, an outlook is given on new approaches to define and design BIPV systems.enThermische Anlagen und Gebäudetechnikbuilding-integrated photovoltaics (bipv)designpv technologiessolar facadesPhotovoltaikGebäudeenergietechnikPhotovoltaische Module und KraftwerkeGebäudehülle621Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV)book article
