Abstract :
This paper positions the integration of photovoltaics in architecture within a holistic approach towards sustainability. The following projects by Arup Associates clearly demonstrate this approach through very different applications of solar energy: (1) A showcase for photovoltaics. (2) A strategic and practical application for a remote area. (3) An infrastructure project supported by a central government initiative.
