ETC Small Greenhouse
The black squares are parts in a photovoltaic system (solar cells) that produces electricity and yet you have enough light for the plants inside the greenhouse. The solar cells in the roof can convert more energy when the sun is high in the sky, the solar cells in the wall convert more when the sun is low. In cloudy conditions they convert less. Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) will increasingly influence our built environment, roofs, walls, windows and so on.
