    Beginning in the early 1990s, photovoltaic (PV) technologies were integrated with building envelopes to reduce peak electrical load and fulfill building energy demands. The PV technologies are referred to be building- integrated (BI) PV systems when they are either incorporated or mounted to the envelopes. BIPV system groupings include BIPV roofs, BIPV facades, BIPV windows, and BIPV shadings. In this study, the technology division of photovoltaic cells and the BIPV system groupings are discussed and investigated. This evaluation addresses several variables that impact the BIPV system applications' functionality and design. The tilt angle of PV shading devices, transmittance, window-to-wall ratio (WWR), and glass orientation are the parameters that have been found. Researchers will find this review paper useful in constructing the BIPV system since it offers opportunities for future study.
