Increase is a European research and innovation project funded by the EU's Horizon Europe Innovation Actions programme (grant agreement No 101136112), launched October 1, 2023, with a 54-month duration. Led by Belgian company Th!nk E and comprising 22 partners from 8 European countries, the project advances building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) technologies. It focuses on innovations in PV module design, protective coatings, and operational guidelines to enhance aesthetics, reduce glare, improve environmental impact, and increase fire resistance. The project explores BIPV facade and roof concepts, noise barriers, and provides practical guidance through pilot testing and rigorous laboratory testing at two testing sites, with technologies showcased at nine demonstration sites across Europe.
