Performance evaluation of CdTe BIPV roof and façades in tropical weather conditions

This study investigates the performance of thin-film cadmium telluride (CdTe) building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) arrays (façade and roof) under tropical weather conditions in Malaysia. This investigation observed the variation in performance ratio (PR) for each façade oriented in different dire...
