Solar energy is an influential sort of renewable energy which is also richly available in North Cyprus. Contrariwise, there are no natural oil resources in Cyprus; over 90% of the country's main energy is imported to the island which needs high financial government credit [1]. Indeed, high CO2 emissions and their side effects on the global environment as well as destruction role on the ozone layer are among major problems of using non-renewable energy. Considering the geographic location of North Cyprus, it has over 300 sunny days out of 365 days of a year; therefore, there is a considerable potential to integrate solar tracking systems into various parts of industrials or residential portions in the country. In a time when using more renewable sources of energy is important to decline obvious environmental problems, it seems to be beneficial to use photovoltaic systems such as "Building Integrated Photovoltaic". As housing consumes over 40 percent of the produced energy, local sustainable properties deal with enhancing the quality of dwellers life. The objective of this study is to achieve a high degree of efficient local energy through BIPV so to supply a proportion of buildings' heating and electricity power consumptions.
