CdTe Solar Glass — Product Description (English)

CdTe Solar Glass | Cadmium Telluride Thin-Film Photovoltaic Glass for BIPV

CdTe Solar Glass is a high-performance cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin-film photovoltaic glass designed for building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). It combines architectural glass with solar power generation, enabling facades, skylights, canopies, curtain walls, and windows to produce clean electricity while maintaining a modern building appearance.

Unlike conventional crystalline silicon modules, CdTe solar glass offers a uniform dark appearance, better performance in high-temperature and low-light conditions, and flexible options for size, thickness, and visible light transmittance—ideal for both energy yield and architectural design.


Key Features & Functions

  • Power-generating glass: Converts sunlight into electricity through a CdTe thin-film layer laminated in glass.
  • BIPV ready: Suitable for facades, curtain walls, skylights, canopies, roofs, and semi-transparent windows.
  • Customizable appearance: Available in dark blue-black or semi-transparent grades to balance daylighting and power output.
  • Durable construction: Tempered / laminated glass-glass structure for strength, weather resistance, and long service life.
  • Design flexibility: Custom dimensions, thickness, framing, and optical grades for project requirements.
  • Stable outdoor performance: Reliable operation across a wide temperature range; suitable for commercial and industrial buildings.
