What are the Requirements of Solar Photovoltaics in Buildings?

August 29th – 30th, 2013 at CEA INES, Le Bourget du Lac (France)

SUMMARY

The workshop took place at CEA INES site (Lynx 4 – Room 107) from 29th to 30th of August 2013. 43 participants have attended this event, coming from France, Italy, Germany, Australia, Austria and Spain. The participants were composed of Research Engineers and Technicians, Architects, Industrials, Installers and Associations. (See annex 1 and annex 2)

On the first day, through the presentations, participants have defined a list of requirements concerning Solar Photovoltaics in Building (See annex 3). Thus, the requirements of BIPV systems come from different actors (Architects, Engineers, Construction companies and workers, building users and operators and Building Authorities) and are related to quality standards (mechanics, electrical safety, waterproofness, mechanical strengthening…).

Many deviations exist between the PV world and the Construction world.

The main solution proposed during the discussion is to harmonize BIPV requirements in each country considering standards and products design.

On the second day, the technical presentations showed the urgent need for improvement since the topics of the first projects on BIPV system (from nearly 20 years ago) are still relevant. The existing softwares and general equations, the usual time steps are not always suitable for BIPV systems.

There is a necessity for harmonization of testing and analysis (in IEC standards) methods.

Thus, training sessions should be organized in order to diffuse results and information through common channels of communication and according to the audience.



Some actions were proposed in order to improve BIPV and BAPV systems current situation. (See detailed minutes in annex 4)

ANNEX 3: ABSTRACTS


Session I: Regulation/Building/PV/standards/Architecture: points of views and feedbacks on BIPV and BAPV systems


- Fiaccabrino Vincent (GMPV-FFB, France): Presentation of Guidelines for the development of integration of solar Photovoltaics into buildings in France

Abstract

In order to ensure the quality of the integration of solar photovoltaic systems on building, industries of GMPV-FFB, actively and collectively contribute by proposing a set of practical and pragmatic guidelines. Thus, these guidelines must ensure competence (training, qualification, and certification), expertise in consulting and maintenance of solar photovoltaic installations on building.



- Yves Jautard (Solarte, France): What one should expect from a BIPV system: point of view of an Architect

Abstract

A quick definition of integration in terms of functions (physical contribution to the building envelope ...) and in terms of aesthetics (and social acceptability) will be presented.

An integration system:

- Intrinsic properties (mechanical strength with exceptional weather conditions, security, power efficiency…).

- Flexibility and facility of installation in particular on the existing building (concept layout plan, recovery of flatness, easy management of reflection ...)

- Aesthetic quality and adaptability problem on sensitive sites, including position of National Architects France.

- Technical versatility, open system capable of integrating various functional or structural elements (PV, thermal…)

- Interface with the global building management, nuisance or optimized thermal management, ventilation systems…



- Maria Roos (Fraunhofer-IWES, Germany): Non-Electrical Requirements of BIPV (Building Regulation and Cost Compensation)

Abstract

Apart from electrical behaviours and safety, the additional requirements from building sides are needed for the integration of PV systems into the building envelope. Most parameters are taken from conventional construction, but so far few test results are available. In the research project 'MULTIELEMENT', therefore, the results of fire and mechanical behaviors BIPV modules will be presented. By replacing the conventional building products with BIPV module, moreover, the cost compensation has been calculated.



- Michele Pellegrino (ENEA, Italy): Applicable standards to BIPV, R&D of new products and some preliminary tests

Abstract

BIPV and BAPV represent the best solution for PV, since they save occupancy of land and provide added values to the building. BIPV in addition can provide more specific functions adding other values to the buildings. Although BIPV definition could be applicable to all PV modules, nevertheless special components are now specifically designed. To this purpose ENEA, Agenzia Nazionale per le Nuove Tecnologie, l’Energia e lo Sviluppo Sostenibile, participates to two projects both funded from EU: Construct-PV “Constructing buildings with customizable size PV modules integrated in the opaque part of the building skin” and Bfirst “Building-integrated fibre-reinforced solar technology”.  The former project aims to develop and demonstrate customizable, efficient and low cost BIPV modules for opaque surfaces of buildings. Opaque surfaces are selected representing massive wide-area spaces of untapped harvesting potential across Europe. Opaque surfaces also present the opportunity to retrofit building envelopes at the same time of harvesting energy. The latter project is focused on the design, development, demonstration and qualification of a portfolio of innovative photovoltaic products for building integration, based on cell encapsulation within fibre-reinforced composite materials. The produced modules are monolithic, lightweight structures, in contrast with currently available glass-based multilayer modules. A high versatility regarding complex geometries, transmittance levels, colours and surface texture can be achieved from different materials (resins, fibres, additives) and processes ( infusion, etc.). New standards for these products and new methods of testing are so necessary. The presentation gives an overview of the new standards and present preliminary results of testing especially focused on optical and thermal requirements.)

- Cécile Miquel (Hespul, France): Feedback From Clichy-Batignolles Photovoltaics Projects

Abstract

Integrating photovoltaics into buildings requires paying careful attention to the set of rules and nontechnical problems to which the work will be submitted. Even if system makers develop and sell a wide range of products, some modifications can be necessary to integrate the photovoltaic products into the considered building. In particular, the fat roof configuration presents a reduced number of commercial solutions.

City planning rules of the ZAC (special planning district) Clichy-Batignolles in Paris imposes environmental targets on building contractors, and in particular photovoltaics electricity generation on every new building.

Hespul accompanied the conception stages of 14 projects on behalf of the publicly owned development company of the area, 6 of them being currently under construction.

Urban planning document (PLU): The first point designers have to take into consideration concerns urban planning rules. Paris Local Town Planning (PLU) legal provisions gives permission to solar equipments to exceed building envelope dimensions and specifes for the Clichy-Batignolles area building height, defining that PV systems compose specific volumes by this way.

Competition with other uses: A second obligation in designing buildings comes from competition with other uses that can be dedicated to roof surfaces: traditionally ventilation systems and exhausts, and more recently green (organic) roofing, specifically required for rainwater abatement. A two-meter canopy can also take place of a living floor, a layout in which renewable electricity generation must be balanced with the potential for selling more floor area.

Architectural value: A major blocking point for architects is that a PV module looks like a PV module, and is often considered as technical equipment with no aesthetic value, that should consequently be hidden or kept to restricted areas. This stereotype often results in PV integration with lower performance of solar equipment in or on a building. However, when an opposing point of view is taken, some teams design systems noticeable from ground level, giving a strong visual identity to their buildings, thanks to the crystalline PV modules.

Safety considerations: Because a PV field on a roof needs to be installed and maintained in safe conditions for workers, entrance and maintenance walkways are part of the whole system design. PV technical solutions on medium rise buildings should consider flashing elements and shadowing by balustrades and parapets.

FIT integration criteria: French feed-in-tariff is not favorable to fat roof systems, in which PV modules are often laid on the roof instead of facing the sun.

Technical solutions review for fat roofs and medium rise buildings: A review of technical solutions will be proposed to illustrate how project management teams dealt with all these requirements, and how PV systems modified in some cases architectural designs.

- Wendelin Sprenger (Fraunhofer ISE, Germany): Pr EN 50583

Abstract

The European Committee for electrotechnical standardisation (CENELEC) currently works on a European standard for building-integrated photovoltaic modules, which will be called EN 50583. As soon as the standard is finalized, it will be of major importance for the whole research field of BIPV. In the presentation, the status of the prEN 50583 in October 2012 is presented. At this point of time, an official preversion has been sent to the members representing the participating countries. The preversion of the standard can be divided into electrical requirements and building-related requirements. While the electrical part does not require major changes to standards that are applied to common PV modules, the building-related part is divided into those that are to be applied for PV modules containing glass and those who do not. The PV modules that contain glass are specified for five categories of building-integration. Finally, test procedures for the uplift resistance and the rain-penetration are presented.





Session II: Presentation of BIPV market, products and projects


- Hans Bloem ( JRC  - REUnit, Italy): Thermal characterization and pre-standardization of Building Integrated PhotoVoltaic Systems

Abstract

Integration of renewable energy sources for heating and electricity in the built environment is stimulated through national regulations in a few Member States only.

The Renewable Energy Sources Directive and the recast of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive [1] require all European Member States to implement national regulations within the near future. Solar energy will contribute importantly on the success in reaching the requirements set for nearly-Zero Energy Buildings by 2020.

This paper presents a proposal for standardized outdoor testing and the evaluation of the impact of photovoltaic systems integrated in the building envelope in relation to improving the integral energy performance assessment of buildings.

Integration of PV systems in the building envelope requires that the PV products are considered as building construction products. Therefore the aim of this work is to define thermal and electrical performance characterization of a PV integrated building component that is of highest priority. The recommended approach starts from the integral energy performance assessment concept and assessment of the boundary conditions.

- Vincent Helmbrecht (DERlab): Common Testing Procedures for PV Module Energy Yield

Abstract

Common testing procedures for energy yield measurements have been set up so far in the DERlab Technical Guidelines for Long-term Photovoltaic Module Outdoor Tests. These guidelines recommend a basic protocol for measurement procedures of PV modules under outdoor conditions. The test setup is described for fixed, free mounted PV modules at optimal orientation – towards equator and optimal tilt angle dependent on the geographical latitude.

The increasing demand in BIPV and BAPV poses the question for application specific test methods to measure the energy yield. Different applications, orientation angles, thermal isolation and multi-functionalities of BIPV modules have decisive influence on their energy yield. The main application areas of BIPV and BAPV have to be identified and specific testing procedures to be defined.

Abstract

The vision to use Photovoltaics (PV) as a decentralized and sustainable source of energy in their products is shared by thousands of designers, architects and manufacturers world-wide. In principle, PV can be integrated directly in products, such as devices, vehicles and buildings. However, the development of PV modules is still primarily driven by the idea of economies of scales which leads to unvaried PV modules that are only good for large- area installations or Building-applied PV Systems. These PV modules are not suitable for the integration into building skins, roof tiles or electric devices because of their rigidness and their electrical constraints. Even companies which could provide a solution for these applications (flexible thin-film PV manufacturers) are not providing customized PV modules because of the associated set-up times. [1]

The SolarDesign project addresses these obstacles by the development of novel solar cell materials, manufacturing processes and supportive actions to improve communication in the design value chain.

The novel PV material will be demonstrated in design driven prototypes ranging from solar charged mobile devices, solar lighting, Building Integrated PV to full integration in smart textiles. [1]

However, to be able to develop and produce the materials and devices for innovative BiPV and PiPV applications, it is essential to identify the requirements of the system. These are plentiful, reaching from general requirements over customer- and country-specific requirements to a whole plethora of standards and regulations. Besides, also own requirements, such as manufacturing constraints, have to be considered. That is why the first phase of the SolarDesign project is dedicated to the definition and specification of the general requirements and the exploration of the design possibilities for BIPV and PIPV. Our presentation will give a brief introduction to the methodology applied and the experiences collected so far.

Abstract

Integration of renewable energy sources in the built environment is stimulated through national regulations in European Member States. Solar energy will contribute heavily on the success in reaching the targets set for Nearly-Zero Energy Buildings by 2020. This paper presents a proposal for an analytical approach to evaluate the impact of double skin photovoltaic systems integrated in the building envelope. The thermal and electrical performance characterization of a PV integrated building component is therefore of highest priority. The recommended approach starts from the integral energy performance assessment concept and the assessment of the boundary conditions.

To produce reliable input data for evaluation an outdoor Test Reference Environment [1] is used.

The outcome of the analytical work from several academic studies for model validation using experimental data from these test sites is presented. It includes the required input data for evaluating the electrical and thermal performance by means of dynamic calculation techniques.

This paper is focused on the characterization of double-skin applications of Building Integrated PhotoVoltaic (BIPV) systems. The evaluation of the thermal and electrical performance of the system is very complex due to highly variable and dynamic aspects.

Different authors have studied analytical approaches for the energy performance evaluation of a double-skin BIPV system based on data from the TRE [2-4]. This evaluation work is based on grey-box models, which allow for the estimation of unknown parameters of the system. These grey-box models are composed by stochastic differential equations (SDE’s), which hold the physical description of the system, combined with a set of discrete time measurement equations, which represent the data driven part.

The analytical work based on the experimental data originated from the TRE will be presented.

Requirements for the input data for evaluating the electrical and thermal performance are also presented.

Abstract

Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) systems are fast becoming an integral part of urban architecture in Europe. The need for accurate simulations of such systems is of paramount importance, both to provide credible predictions of energy generation, and to enable the establishment of appropriate standards. Here we present a coupled thermal-electrical model of residential BIPV systems installed on rooftops with air cavities to cool PV modules by natural convection. The model was developed for use in the TRNSYS software environment. Both flash-test data and monitoring data were used to validate the model. A set of 7 BIPV stands were monitored for one year, including 5 different systems commercially available in France in 2010.

Thermal interactions between PV components and the underlying building are an important feature of BIPV system behaviour. Modules regularly operate away from reference or NOCT temperature and radiation conditions; predictions of electricity generation are therefore sensitive to the inherent dependence of a model on these variables. A full BIPV system model also requires the treatment of heat transfer through the building envelope. Therefore for the present study, a coupled model was developed, combining current state-of-the-art thermal and electrical system-level models. This approach allowed electrical and thermal models to be independently developed and tested, thereby facilitating studies of the coupled model.

The individually validated electrical and thermal models were combined by coupling heat dissipation of PV modules and the temperature of PV modules. Data-model comparisons of typical days are presented to show the accuracy of the combined model under a variety of conditions. Finally, a set of recommendations are proposed for the design of future BIPV systems and their simulation.

Abstract

Photovoltaic-Thermal (PV-T) collectors are hybrid components that convert solar energy into both electricity and heat.

In 2012, the project PHOTOTHERM was launched by the Centre for Thermal Sciences of Lyon (CETHIL) in collaboration with EDF/R&D and supported by ADEME. The aims of the project are develop, monitor and model an improved PV-T system providing electricity and hot water. At the present stage, the project is focussed on the monitoring and simulation of a full scale PV-T system under real climatic conditions. The system comprises an array of efficiency prototype PV-T modules that were developed and have already been tested under controlled laboratory conditions in a previous study.

We present the numerical simulation of the PV-T system with a purpose-built model initially developed in Matlab. Experimental data obtained in both controlled and real climatic conditions were used to validate of the model, which predicts the temperature fields of each layer of the collector. The model calculates the state of the system by solving 3D energy balance using the method of finite volumes. Adapted meshing based on Voronoï tessellation has been implemented in order to reduce computation time. Since PV-cell temperatures can differ according to their position on the module, PV temperature-dependant electricity output is calculated for each cell. The overall output of the module is obtained by taking this thermal mismatch into account. The final objective is to implement this new simulation tool in an integrated heating system in order to optimize strategies for component interconnection, management of the cogeneration system, and adapting of the system to requirements of the building.

Abstract

Solar and luminous transmittance and reflectance, together with the total solar transmittance (solar factor) are a usual reference for the comparison of spectrophotometric and thermal performance of glazing systems. These magnitudes are also commonly used as inputs for the simulations of energy performance of buildings. At normal incidence, they can be easily measured by means of UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometers, and integrated global factors are obtained by following the procedures stated in the relevant standards.

Given the multiple configurations that may be conceived and manufactured to comply with different building requirements (mainly related to aesthetical issues, energy efficiency, safety and security and/or acoustic insulation), measurement is not in general a practical option.

In relation to PV simulation, knowledge of the real amount of absorbed radiation by the PV cell once it has been encapsulated is a valuable input for electrical and thermal simulations.

A theoretical model based on transfer matrix method for the calculation of the optical properties of a complex multilayer glazing system will be presented. Transfer matrices for each component (glass -or other materials- substrates, polymeric films, selective coatings) have been explicitly derived, together with the total transfer matrix.

Application of the model to the case of encapsulated PV cells in glass-glass configuration will be described, together with a detailed calculation of layer-by-layer radiation absorption.

Nuria Martín Chivelet (CIEMAT, Spain): Optical characterization of PV modules for BIPV

Abstract

The optical characterization of photovoltaic (PV) modules is especially interesting in BIPV applications. PV modules may become very active in daylighting of buildings and, at the same time, affect their heating and cooling energy needs. Rain-screen or curtain walls are some examples in which the measurements of the spectral transmittance and spectral reflectance of the integrated PV modules are of interest. Besides, the special working conditions of the PV modules in such applications affect their electrical behavior. Not only because of the different operating temperatures of the PV modules, but also because of the increased optical angular losses they undergo at tilt angles and azimuths different from the optimums. These optical losses can be also measured and characterized. This presentation summarizes some related works and experiences performed at CIEMAT.

Abstract

Historically ECN has conducted several studies into BIPV systems and components. Monitoring and modelling the output of various systems on our terrain. These include:



  • Vertically mounted façade elements, mounted east, west, south and north.

  • Sun-shade systems

  • AC modules and micro-inverters for in-roof integration

These issues are all still relevant and current topics for the application of BIPV. In this presentation we will re-visit some of this work, and present an overview of current topics of interest at ECN.

Abstract

Modules based on bifacial PV cells can collect irradiance from both sides, taking advantage of natural albedo reaching their backside. Depending on the installation configuration, an annual gain up to 25% has been reported in standard ground mounted applications. Here we focus on BIPV applications where modules are vertically integrated onto facades.

We have set up an adjustable test bench for 2x2 cell modules which allows outdoor studies on the influence of the reflective inner facade, the vertical position of module and reflector, and the distance between them. In addition, a ray-tracing model allowed us to study seasonal effects (solar elevation angles) and non-uniformity of the rear irradiance. Applying the optimal configuration we monitored IV parameters and temperatures for different bifacial module architectures (cell size & interconnect, front & rear glass texture) during spring and summer.

We show that requirements in this specific application must be focused on the simulation of opto-geometrical parameters and on the design of adapted module architectures. In the configuration studied the bifacial modules can obtain a 15-20% annual power gain over mono-facial ones. Part of this gain can be attributed to the favorable thermal behaviour of bifacial modules. Moreover we applied an innovative interconnect using half-cut cells in order to limit resistive losses and become less sensitive to non-uniform irradiance on the module backside. A gain up to 6% (strongly depending on the irradiance) compared to standard interconnect with full size cells has been established with this novel architecture. Finally, our evaluation of modules with textured glass on module front- and backside gave a 5% gain compared to standard glass. This is due to the reduction of reflective losses of the diffuse backside irradiance as well as that of frontside irradiance at grazing incidence in morning and evening.

- Norbert Henze (Fraunhofer IWES, Germany): PV-roof-integrated systems vs. Best- and Worst-Cases, Novel Measurement for Long-term Outdoor Measurement of PV Roof-Integrated System

Abstract

The penetration of the PV-roof-integrated still remains a small scale compared to the fast growing PV on-roof system, except the special feed-in tariff for PV roof-integrated system in France. One of the most significant obstacles is technical barrier (electrical, thermal and mechanical behaviors). In the national research project MULTIELEMENT supported by BMU, the electrical, thermal and mechanical measurements have been performed under long-term outdoor measurement. Following are the comparison measurements at Fraunhofer IWES.

- Three rooftops with different tilted angles (15°, 30° and 45°) (Figure 1a).

- Best- and Worst-Case measurement of PV-Modules at 30° tilted angle (Figure 1b).

- Three different PV-roof-integrated systems (Figure 2)

There novel measurements are very useful for characterize the total system performances, system design especially for mounting systems and life cycle assessment of PV roof-integrated systems.

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to obtain key data on the thermal and electrical behavior of photovoltaic systems integrated into rooftops typical of residential buildings in France. These data are used to calibrate a bespoke coupled thermal-electric model developed to establish guide lines of good practice for simulations of BIPV systems. This analysis also permits the identification of effective methods to characterize and compare different technologies and installation choices, in terms of electrical energy.

Seven 2 kWc BIPV arrays (all comprising polycrystalline silicon modules), identical to commercially available systems in France in 2010, were mounted on experimental platforms according to manufacturer and installer specifications. Each installation was instrumented to record component temperatures (at the underside of PV modules), environmental conditions (inclined and horizontal total irradiance, air temperature, wind velocity and direction), and DC/AC electricity generation controlled by grid-tied inverters with built-in maximum power point trackers.

Minute-wise data (average value for a sampling rate of 1 Hz) were recorded in a centralized MySQL database during the first year of operation. Before installation, the reference electrical parameters of each module were measured by flash-test.

The presentation focuses on the instrumentation and monitoring of these tests benches.

Abstract

Current trends towards energy-efficient homes and tertiary buildings require a redefinition of building envelopes as dynamic components of integrated energy systems. In this context, naturally ventilated photovoltaic double skin facades are interesting for renovation projects as well as new buildings, because they offer local electricity generation and improved thermal efficiency (by acting as a thermal barrier and source of natural ventilation), whilst meeting other needs such as shade, sound insulation and aesthetic requirements. The Ressources project was launched to provide critical experimental data for the electrical and thermal response of photovoltaic double skin facades, and in particular the behavior of full-scale installations built to according to multiple criteria. To date, three prototypes were designed and constructed in France with the participation of Jacques Ferrier Architectes, Tenesol, HBS-Technal, and EDF R&D. The Ressources project is led by the Centre for Thermal Sciences of Lyon (CETHIL) and supported by ADEME within the PREBAT programme.

We present a comparative evaluation of the Ressources prototypes monitored during one year of operation. Their experimental analysis presents similar challenges to those encountered by building management systems that utilize monitoring data. Their performance must be characterized (and hence predicted) as a function of external and internal environmental conditions, typically with only a limited or simplified description of the system. It is important to distinguish between normal and anomalous behavior, and moreover to identify the causes of such features. The analysis methods developed through the course of this study are presented with a view to their general application to similar building integrated photovoltaic systems.
