Abstract
Provided are novel building integrable photovoltaic (BIPV) structures having multiple photovoltaic portions offset with respect to each other along their lengths. An offset direction can correspond to the length of a row of installed BIPV structures. In some embodiments, a BIPV structure may include three offset photovoltaic portions and three corresponding flap portions for extending under photovoltaic portions of adjacent structures and sealing interfaces between installed structures. The novel BIPV structures can facilitate installation, while providing the flexibility to avoid obstacles. Provided also are novel BIPV assemblies having multi-conductor return lines extending through the assemblies. A BIPV assembly having a multi-conductor return line may include a return line for the assembly itself, and one or more return lines for other assemblies.
