Abstract: . . . products, economical power conditioning equipment and suitable and efficient ‘end-users’ of the solar electricity produced. Cost reductions of around 65% are achievable today when comparing building integrated solar to standalone solar. Future cost reductions as high as 85% are predicted within the next five years, making building integrated solar a truly competitive option for commercial developers.

Additional active system features include the energy management system bringing floors on line with air conditioning only as tenants for that floor enter the lift lobby and CO2 sensors on fresh air supply fans and duct pressure controlling supply fan speeds. 7. CONCLUSIONS This paper has demonstrated that building integrated solar can deliver both economical and environmental benefits.
