The need to reduce the carbon footprint of the building sector has become a pressing concern in the global effort to mitigate climate change. Photovoltaic (PV) technology has emerged as a promising solution, offering the potential to transform building envelopes into energy-generating systems. One innovative approach in this direction is the development of perovskite-based PV glazing systems, which can provide a pathway towards low or even zerocarbon buildings. Perovskite materials, with their unique properties, have garnered significant attention in the PV research community. Compared to traditional silicon-based solar cells, perovskite PVs offer advantages such as high efficiency, low-cost fabrication, and the ability to be integrated seamlessly into building facades. The incorporation of perovskite PV glazing systems into building design could revolutionise the way we harness solar energy, reducing the reliance on conventional energy sources and contributing to the overall sustainability of the built environment. The integration of PV technology into building facades has been a subject of extensive research. These studies have highlighted the potential benefits of using PV systems as an integral part of building envelopes, such as optimising energy performance, reducing energy consumption, and enhancing the architectural aesthetics of the structure. However, there are still some challenges that need to be addressed, including ensuring the long-term durability and reliability of the PV glazing systems, as well as developing cost-effective and scalable manufacturing processes. This mini review aims to explore the current state of research on perovskite PV glazing systems and their potential to transform the built environment towards a low/zero-carbon future.
