Ahead of the policy to mandate zero-energy buildings with a total floor area of 1,000 or more for private buildings in 2025, the need to install BIPVs for an integrated solar power generation system is expected to increase significantly. However, there is a high barrier to reviewing the installation of BIPVs for new and renewable energy due to paid analysis through commercial software and expert requests. Therefore, there is a need to develop a simulation tool that can easily determine whether BIPV installation of the outer wall of a building is possible. Through this study, the shadow area for BIPV design was analyzed to develop a solar module installation feasibility simulation tool, which is easily available to anyone based on the web, and allows users to intuitively check areas suitable for domestic BIPV installation regulations in a 3D environment.
