The product line was officially presented at BAU Munich 2025, a leading construction trade fair. ML System’s CSO Jan Strzałkowski showcased PhotonWall’s capabilities in real-life applications, highlighting energy-generating glass panels for commercial and residential buildings.

Şişecam conducted technical audits of ML System’s production facilities, confirming the high quality of manufacturing, performance reliability of the glass modules, and their market competitiveness. The audits validated the readiness of PhotonWall for large-scale deployment in architectural projects.

The collaboration targets architects, façade contractors, and building consultants, aiming to promote modern, sustainable design through BIPV solutions. This move reflects Şişecam’s commitment to sustainability and the growing demand for eco-efficient, energy-generating building materials.

PhotonWall remains the cornerstone of ML System’s strategy to scale photovoltaic solutions for facades and rooftops, enabling buildings in Turkey to generate clean energy without compromising design aesthetics.

The project features approximately 2,400 m² of integrated Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV), enabling the façade to actively generate renewable energy. ML System’s PhotonWall modules will not only enhance the building’s energy performance but also seamlessly merge aesthetics with functionality, a hallmark of modern sustainable architecture.

According to Karol Kotowicz, Sales & Project Manager at ML System, the company takes pride in contributing to such a prestigious development. “Our products will help create a sustainable energy solution and a better working environment for over 3,000 employees,” he said.

This achievement results from close collaboration among key partners: Rupert App GmbH & Co, the façade contractor; MEIXNER SCHLÜTER WENDT, the project’s architects; B&L Gruppe, the developer; and ING Deutschland, the visionary client. Together, they are shaping a new generation of buildings that produce energy, inspire innovation, and redefine urban sustainability.

In winter, it prioritizes heat extraction, preheating ventilation air for the HVAC system and reducing space heating loads. In summer, it acts as a ventilated cooling facade, lowering PV panel temperatures to improve electrical conversion efficiency while limiting solar heat gain indoors. When energy production is unnecessary, the system switches to thermal buffer mode, reducing heat loss through the envelope.

Designed for modular prefabrication, each unit uses aluminum framing, operable dampers, and factory-assembled PV glazing, allowing plug-and-play installation with conventional curtainwall techniques. Simulation studies with Canadian climate data show energy yields 2–25% higher than standard BIPV/T systems, particularly under low-irradiance winter conditions.

By combining smart thermal and electrical management with scalable modular design, this adaptive curtainwall offers a practical, climate-responsive solution for net-zero-ready buildings and retrofits, positioning Canada as a leader in energy-active facade technologies.
