By providing the same thermal insulation as conventional glass, along with the capacity to generate free clean electricity from the sun, it enables buildings to drastically improve their energy efficiency, decrease operation and maintenance costs, and reduce their carbon footprint. Onyx Solar is offering tailored solutions on existing buildings by installing linings of PV glass panes which cover fully or partially their rooftops and facades.

We are also developers of the first photovoltaic pavement in the world made with PV glass which is being placed on terrace floors, sidewalks and other outdoor surfaces.

The company, which has offices in Spain, United States and China, was founded in 2009 and has completed more than 350 projects in 50 countries since then. The current yearly production capacity at our factory is at 2 million sqft.

We are proving to meet all international stardards in terms of quality and safety. Onyx Solar production process and materials have been successfully verified by independent certifying associations. For more detailed information on certifications, go to section Certifications in the website.

THE MOST INNOVATIVE GLASS IN THE WORLD

PV glass features the same mechanical properties as conventional architectural glass placed in buildings.

This material can produce free and clean electricity thanks to the sun, turning buildings into vertical power generators. We can easily adapt our PV glass panes to the needs of our customers making it possible to choose their shape, color, size, thickness and grade of transparency of the glass, therefore facilitating its integration in a wide range of projects and designs.

Due to the thermal insulation properties of PV glass, the buildings´ energy needs can be drastically reduced, hence, leading to substantial savings on electricity bills and HVAC equipment.

A GLOBAL COMPANY

Our photovoltaic glass has already been installed in a wide variety of buildings in more than 350 projects across the planet, ranging from government buildings to railway stations and bus stops.

World´s leading companies and institutions such as Apple Inc, Novartis Pharmaceuticals, Samsung, Coca-Cola, Heineken, Pfizer, G.W University to name a few, have led the adoption of photovoltaic glass within their industries.

We have provided design assistance to prominent architectural firms such as Foster + Partners, Gensler, Perkins + Will, S.O.M, A.S + G.G among others. Onyx Solar has also participated in joint ventures with general contractors such as Turner, Skanska, Jacobs, KPRS, ACS and Ferrovial.
