AbstractMany western countries are developing a new concept of solar energy application: building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) for electricity generation. BIPV seems a perfect fit for Hong Kong where renewable energy is the only energy source. Photovoltaics market and price, potential electricity generation capacity from BIPV, and BIPV electricity prices are examined in the article.
