This repository serves as a collection point for buildings and infrastructure have integrated solar energy technologies, most prominently building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). The repository can be explored through a map tool with basic filtering functionality. Along with the map explorer we have included a set of plots to explore the projects through their performance and inherent characteristics (i.e. type of project, annual yield, system efficiency, etc.). As the repository explorer is expanded more projects will be included as well as resources for various audiences, such as design booklets for BIPV or reference materials for engineering standards.
