Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100071274Unitized Curtain Wall Module Adapted for Integrated Photovoltaic Conversion Module - A unitized curtain wall unit is adapted to incorporate power generating elements within an exterior shell or façade of a building structure. The units can also be adapted to house other power generating system components—including control units and associated power/signal wiring.03-25-2010
20100071278Building Integrated Power Generating System - A power generating system is integrated within an exterior shell or façade of a building structure. The energy generating devices (which can be photovoltaic), control units and associated power/signal wiring are incorporated and integrated within individual unitized curtain wall units making up the façade. Electrical power can be more advantageously generated from surface areas of building structures previously untapped for solar energy harvesting.03-25-2010
20100071279UL Compliant Building Integrated Photovoltaic Conversion System - A UL compliant power generating system is integrated within an exterior shell or façade of a building structure. The energy generating devices (which can be photovoltaic), control units and associated power/signal wiring are incorporated and integrated within individual unitized curtain wall units making up the façade, and are adapted to be UL compliant.03-25-2010
20100071280Unitized Building Integrated Photovoltaic Conversion Module - An energy conversion device is adapted to be housed within a unitized curtain wall unit as part of an exterior shell or façade of a building structure. The device can be a photovoltaic module that includes other power generating system components—including control units and associated power/signal wiring—within the façade.03-25-2010
20100071310Method of Assembling Building Integrated Photovoltaic Conversion System - A power generating system is assembled by integrating it within an exterior shell or façade of a building structure. The energy generating devices of the power generating system (which can be photovoltaic), control units and associated power/signal wiring are also incorporated and integrated within individual unitized curtain wall units making up the façade. Electrical power can be more advantageously generated from surface areas of building structures previously untapped for solar energy harvesting.03-25-2010
20100071747Method of Operating Building Integrated Photovoltaic Conversion System - A power generating system is operable while integrated within an exterior shell or façade of a building structure. The system components—energy generating devices (which can be photovoltaic), control units and associated power/signal wiring are incorporated and operated within individual unitized curtain wall units making up the façade.03-25-2010
20100071748Building Integrated Photovoltaic Conversion System Implemented With Integrated Control Management Units - A power generating system is integrated within an exterior shell or façade of a building structure.
