Introducing a Review on Colouring Solutions for BIPV Modules We are sharing a detailed review article on colouring solutions for building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) modules, authored by Alejandro Borja Block and colleagues for. This paper covers the various technologies used to color BIPV modules, their functions, benefits, and challenges. Key Highlights: 🔹 Overview of colouring technologies for BIPV modules. 🔹 Examination of coloured PV products, pricing, and power output. 🔹 Insights into reliability, stability, and future challenges. 🔹 Discussion on the social, economic, and environmental impacts. Specifically, the Kromatix™ technology is highlighted in the review: 🔸 Based on an interferential multilayer stack on the inner side of PV front glass. 🔸 Designed to minimize angular dependency of color. 🔸 Offers a variety of colors with minimal performance loss (2%-8% depending on color). 🔸 Examples include installations at EPFL and the Copenhagen International School. With the need for global decarbonization, integrating PV technology into buildings is a strategy to generate electricity where it's needed most, while maintaining architectural aesthetics.

Study Finds Custom-Colored Modules Enhance Acceptance of Photovoltaics on Buildings A joint study conducted by the Institute of Psychology at the University of Freiburg and the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE has revealed that social acceptance of building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) in urban areas is overwhelmingly positive. The study highlights a stronger preference for integrating solar technology into modern buildings compared to historic structures. However, this gap narrows significantly when the photovoltaic (PV) modules are designed to blend seamlessly with building facades or roofs. Key findings from the study, carried out as part of the livMatS Cluster of Excellence at the University of Freiburg, indicate that visually harmonious PV […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gGTqNPsn #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #bipvmodule #coloredmodule #fraunhoferinstituteforsolarenergysystemsise #universityoffreiburg

The Challenge of Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) Lies in Limited Awareness Every building starts as a vision in the mind of its designer. If a material’s cost, properties, or functionality are not well-known, it’s unlikely to be included in the design. The construction industry is well-established. For any material, whether traditional or innovative, there’s usually a familiar alternative that can easily take its place. The BIPV projects that have been realized so far succeeded because the owners or designers were familiar with BIPV. They believed it was a better solution and were willing to put in the extra effort to make it happen. In short, to promote BIPV technology, more professionals in the architectural field need to get involved and be aware of its benefits.

New Post on Our Page
There are three main types of PV (photovoltaic) cells/modules used in solar panels: 🔹 Monocrystalline Silicon – Most efficient with a well-ordered structure – Higher energy output, but it comes with a higher price tag 🔹 Polycrystalline Silicon – Slightly less efficient but more budget-friendly – Made from silicon crystals with some grain boundaries 🔹 Amorphous Silicon (Thin-film) – Atoms are arranged randomly, resulting in lower efficiency – However, it’s the cheapest to produce, making it a good choice for large-scale projects Each type has its pros and cons, so the best choice depends on the needs and budget!

As appetite to achieve net zero targets increase, industry require a clear roadmap to guide their commitments. Achieving net zero often entails significant engineering and infrastructure transformations, which will take time, money and resource to achieve. Ceres, a leader in clean energy technology, enabling the world’s most progressive companies to decarbonise at the scale and pace, has leveraged AtkinsRéalis’ global expertise and capabilities in hydrogen across the full value chain to identify industrial use case for Ceres’ unique solid oxide electrolyser (#SOEC) technology. Together the two companies are developing an electrolyser module and commercially scalable green hydrogen plant design based on the highly efficient Ceres SteelCell® electrolyser technology. Let’s take a look at how the scalable plant building block is differentiated from low temperature water electrolyser plant designs. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eUBBR3kZ Clean energy starts with technology #CleanEnergy #NetZero #Engineering #technology #CleanTech #Decarbonisation #Hydrogen #ValueChain #SolidOxide #Electrolyser #SOEC #ElectrolyserModule #GreenHydrogen #HydrogenPlant

I’m excited to share that I’ve obtained a certificatio on #zero_energy_buildings from a course held by Arshidez Consulting Company in cooperation with University of Isfahan, Art University of Isfahan and the Vela Solaries A.g of Swiss. During this period I gained valuable knowledge on how to reduce buildings energy requirements with #optimal_architectural_design and prlviding a well isolated #thermal_shell in zero energy buildings. In addition, the concept design of energy supply based on different energy consumption of zero energy buildings and creating a balance of energy production and consumption in zero energy buildings has been explored. at the end of program we obtained skill of applying energy simulation in the design of zero energy buildings. #sustainability #net_zero_energy_buildings #energy_performance #HVAC_systems #architecture #photovoltaic #thermal_comfort #climate_change
