From the perspective of solar photovoltaic power generation system and the building integration, studied the practical application and functionality of the PV tile, Aluminium Honeycomb panel PV Components, Vacuum Glass PV Components and FRP Board PV Components. Five positive effects of photovoltaic system on buildings are summarized: beautifying building facades, replacing original building components, upgrading or expanding the building use function, improving the building use comfort and improving the building energy saving effect.
