 Trial Shows ClearVue Solar Facade Delivers 2.6 Year Payback
Key Points
  • Fast Payback Periods: 4.6-year payback before subsidies, 2.6 years with Hong Kong Feed-in Tariff
  • Ready to Deploy: ClearVue's full range of solar facade products are fully certified and commercially available
  • Noteworthy Support for Path to Net Zero: Can offset 74-125% of a building's annual energy requirements
Full Summary

In a comprehensive report resulting from a trial installation at Hong Kong EMSD headquarters, it was concluded that ClearVue Technologies Limited's solar facade solutions can deliver payback in less than 3 years by dramatically contributing to decreased building energy requirements. Applying real-world trial results to a 15-city assessment of a sample building, the ClearVue Integrated Solar Facade could deliver as much as 74-125% of the building's energy requirements. The EMSD trial, which began in July 2024, tested the performance of ClearVue's Vision Glass photovoltaic (PV) glazing technology in a real-world environment, measuring the energy generation, thermal performance, and impact on building energy efficiency. The outstanding thermal performance was achieved using specialized Insulated Glass Units (IGU's) that incorporated vacuum-insulation technology from LandVac. With fire tests completed, ClearVue products are classified as A2-s1, d0 rating making the products appropriate for deployment on buildings over 18m high and in high-risk environments. ClearVue will now use the final report and official certification to accelerate its commercialization activities.

Guidance

The trial results showed that the ClearVue Integrated Solar Facade can offset 74-125% of a building's annual energy requirements.
