This systematic review examined the use of building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) in high-rise buildings, focusing on early-stage design strategies to enhance energy performance. With limited rooftop space in tall buildings, façades offer a promising alternative for solar energy. . As urban landscapes continue to grow vertically, integrating sustainable energy solutions like solar power into high-rise buildings has become both a necessity and a challenge. While solar energy offers significant environmental and financial benefits, implementing it in tall structures presents. . Rooftop solar panels have garnered widespread adoption in urban environments and can convert sunlight into electricity, significantly reduce energy costs, and contribute to environmental sustainability. I've often wondered how to make the most of solar energy without a sprawling rooftop or backyard.
