Facade collectors with perspective. Windows with integrated evacuated tubes gain solar heat and provide shade and evenly distributed light for indoor areas.

Artikel

Scientists from the research and industry fields have developed a facade system which combines several functions: integrated evacuated tube collectors generate solar heat at a high temperature level, and provide even, semi-transparent light and protection against the sun for indoor areas without impairing the view. The system is particularly suitable for offices and other functional buildings with a large number of windows. It can also be used as an architectural design element for facades.
