ABSTRACT: First generation building integrated photovoltaic, BIPV, systems consisted of PV modules mounted
onto private or commercial buildings using custom-made substructures and fixtures. Second generation BIPV
systems were systems where PV elements were replacing parts of the building envelope and partially taking over its
functions. With the commercial availability of flexible PV elements the third generation of BIPV systems uses
standard building elements, which come with integrated flexible PV modules. The first section of this paper describes
the production of flexible photovoltaic PV modules made from amorphous silicon and demonstrates their specific
advantages. These modules employ triple-junction amorphous silicon solar cells, which are deposited on a stainless
steel substrate. In the second section of this paper, the evolution of building integrated PV systems is demonstrated.
A precondition for growth in the BIPV segment is the availability of new designs for BIPV modules, overcoming
traditional obstacles seen in previous generations of BIPV systems. The aim is to pave the way for reliable,
functional, cost effective and statically viable BIPV systems for roofs of industrial buildings by use of flexible thin
film amorphous silicon solar modules, which are shaped into standard building elements
