Sanyo Solar Ark, Solar Building in Japan, Japanese Solar Building, Photovoltaics, BIPV, Building Integrated Photovoltaics, Solar Ark By Sanyo, Gifu Prefecture, Stunning Sanyo Solar ArkSanyo has built an ark for the solar century – an impressive 630 kW solar-collecting building that boasts over 5,000 solar panels and kicks off over 500,000 kWh of energy per year. Even more outstanding is the fact that most of the monocrystalline modules used on the Solar Ark were factory rejects headed to the scrap pile. Located next to Sanyo’s semiconductor factory in Gifu, Japan, the Solar Ark stands as one of the best examples of building integrated PV design to date.1
