Ivyuma vy’ubuhinga bwa none ni ibintu bihambaye vyo kwikingira mu buryo bw’amatara, bikoreshwa canecane mu kurinda ibice vy’izuba ku bintu vyo hanze mu gihe vyongerera ubushobozi bwo gukora neza n’ubuzima. Ibikorwa vyavyo nyamukuru birimwo gukoresha amazi, gukingira inkungugu, gukingira UV, no kurinda umubiri, kugira ngo hakomeze neza ibice vy’amatara y’izuba mu bihe bitandukanye.
Uvuye mu buryo bw’ibintu, igipfukisho ca fotovoltaic gikozwe mu buryo busanzwe - ubwatsi, uburebure bw’ibirahuri canke ibikoresho vy’ivyuma vy’ibara ry’agahama. Ibirahuri vy’agaciro, kubera ubushobozi bwavyo bwiza cane bwo guhangana n’ikirere, ubushobozi bwo guhangana n’ingaruka, n’ugutuma umuco uhagarara (urenga 91%), ni ryo hitamwo ryiza ry’ibimera vy’amashanyarazi. Ibikoresho vya polymer (nk’ivyo bita polycarbonate) birakoreshwa cane mu bikoresho vy’inguvu z’izuba n’ivy’amatelefone ngendanwa bitewe n’uburemere bwavyo buyoroshe, UV{6}} ishobora guhangana n’ibintu, n’imiti- ishobora kuba. Ikindi kandi, hariho ibiharuro vy’amatara y’izuba vy’imbere mu mubiri bikoresha ivyuma vy’imbere (nk’ibipfukisho birwanya - kugira ngo birushirizeho gutuma umuco ugenda neza no kugabanya ukubura inguvu.
Ku bijanye n’imiterere y’imiterere, ibipfukisho vy’amatara y’izuba bitegerezwa kuba bihuye neza n’ibara ry’igice c’imbere c’umubiri, bikaba bituma haba ahantu hapfutse kugira ngo ntihagire ubukonje n’inkungugu binjira, gutyo bikaba bibuza imirongo miremire kandi bikagabanya ubushobozi bw’ingingo. Ikindi kandi, imirongo yayo irakomezwa cane kugira ngo umuntu ashobore kwihanganira imibabaro y’ubuhinga nk’umuvuduko w’umuyaga n’umuzigo w’urubura. Ku bijanye n’ibice bibiri vy’izuba, ugutanga umuco mu buryo bumwe cane ni ngirakamaro cane kugira ngo umuco uri ku mugongo ntugire ico ukoze.
Kubera ko hariho iterambere mu vy’ubuhinga bwa fotovoltaic, ibikorwa vy’ibipfukisho vy’amatara y’izuba vyagutse kuva ku kurinda vyoroshe gushika ku gutuma ibintu bigenda neza. Nk’akarorero, ibintu bimwe bimwe birimwo nano - nano {{2} =} kugira ngo bigabanye ibiciro vyo gusanasana, mu gihe ibindi bikoresha imiterere mitomito kugira ngo bigabanye umuco no gutuma ubushobozi bwo gutanga amashanyarazi bugenda neza. Mu gihe kizoza, n’iterambere ry’ubuhinga bw’ibikoresho n’uburyo bwo gukora, ibipfukisho vy’amatara y’izuba bizoshika ku bindi bihe vy’ugutera imbere mu bijanye n’uburemere buke, ubwenge, n’ubugenzi bw’ibidukikije, bitanga ingwati ikomeye cane ku bijanye n’igihe kirekire - n’ugukora neza kw’imirongo y’amashanyarazi.
