The EU’s Energy Performance of Buildings Directive is a key piece of legislation towards all new buildings being almost zero net energy users as a typical building is deemed to account for around 36% of the EU’s CO2 emissions. However, BIPV projects requires specific features which are challenging to bring together in one unique product: Power demand per m2, customization of module in terms of dimensions, transparency %, voltage, all characteristics complying with an aesthetic integration.

Solution

S’Tile provides custom designs of solar photovoltaic panels. Dedicated solutions are proposed for each project. Solutions combine high efficiencies (> 200 W/m²) with singular visual aspect; a full paving of module area by cells without any ribbon visible at the surface allows for multiple unique solutions to market requirements.

Applications

Glass/glass modules for building facades, small and large area solar rooftops and urban furniture. 

Platform

Two main families of products are proposed with flexible characteristics. Firstly, a ‘Full Black] module that is particularly adapted for tiles, slates and applications requesting discreet integration. Secondly, ‘Biomimetic’ panels aimed for building’s facades, parking shelters, railings or pergolas. Each range is proposed in Glass/backsheet of Glass/Glass versions. Modules are IEC/EN 61730 and IEC/EN 61215 compliant. 

Availability

The Linea modules are currently available.

Understanding PV module supply to the European market in 2026. PV ModuleTech Europe 2025 is a two-day conference that tackles these challenges directly, with an agenda that addresses all aspects of module supplier selection; product availability, technology offerings, traceability of supply-chain, factory auditing, module testing and reliability, and company bankability.
10 March 2026
Frankfurt, Germany
The conference will gather the key stakeholders from PV manufacturing, equipment/materials, policy-making and strategy, capital equipment investment and all interested downstream channels and third-party entities. The goal is simple: to map out PV manufacturing out to 2030 and beyond.
