Thermal characterization of glass-glass photovoltaic facade
In this paper, the authors show the results of thermal characterization of glass-glass photovoltaic facade installed at ENEA Research Center of Portici, carried out by means of an outdoor measurement campaign. The façade with integrated PV glass-glass modules was developed to replace a conventional glazed façade, shadowed by using an internal louvres system. Replacing standard envelope building technological systems with façade integrated BIPV allows for savings in materials and energy consumption, and can offer interesting result from the architectural point of view. The goal of the study was experimenting with architectural solutions with PV, and assessing the related energy performance. This is a crucial topic in the context of a wide use of BIPV solutions in which the thermal behavior of the PV component should be verified also in order to meet the national regulations on energy consumption. In particular, the scope was assessing the thermal performance of a PV glazed façade in the typical climate of Southern Italy, where Portici is located. The results of the energy thermal estimation are reliable, because they have been got my means of outdoor experiments, with dynamic testing and analysis activities carried out under real weather conditions.
