To reduce the amount of solar gain (increase in thermal energy) in the summer months, fitting the southern facing side of the building with solar control glass would be of benefit. The glazing would reduce the amount of heat entering the building without any loss of natural light. This has the benefit of reducing the amount of energy required for cooling. In addition, these units are typically double glazed, providing greater insulation in cooler months (Pilkington.com, 2020).
