A novel bifacial photovoltaic wall combining thermochromic material and double layers PCM (BPVW-TC+PCM) is proposed to passively regulate building heat gain and photovoltaic (PV) power generation through the dynamic color change properties of thermochromic glass and the latent heat storage capacity of the phase change material (PCM).
Photovoltaic (PV) panels are devices that transform sunlight into electrical energy through the displacement of electrons in a semiconductor material after being excited by photons, generating an electric current. PV cells, as electronic devices, can generate electricity with zero carbon emissions 1.
This research aims to conduct an exergy, economic, and environmental analysis of a 6.57 kW p rooftop photovoltaic (PV) power plant that combines different PV technologies, comprising 2 kW p of poly-crystalline (p-Si), 1.87 kW p of mono-crystalline (m-Si), and 2.7 kW p of thin-film amorphous silicon (a-Si) technologies.
Thermal stability: The identical thermal expansion coefficients of the glass layers minimize stress on solar cells during temperature fluctuations. Dual-sided energy Capture: Many double glass modules are bifacial, allowing them to harness sunlight from both sides.
