Network time series forecasting in photovoltaics power production
Accurate forecasting of photovoltaic (PV) power production is crucial for the integration of more renewable energy sources into the power grid. PV power production is highly intermittent, due to the stochastic cloud behaviour and cloud dynamics. Previous w ...
EPFL2024Distributional justice, effectiveness, and costs of current and alternative solar PV incentive schemes in Switzerland
Like many other countries, Switzerland offers various incentives to promote residential solar PV, but not all households have equal access to them. Using a microsimulation approach based on merged data from the Swiss Household Budget Survey and Household E ...
2024Correlating long-term performance and aging behaviour of building integrated PV modules
Christophe Ballif, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Ebrar Özkalay
Because building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) modules are fully integrated into a building envelope, the back of the module can be exposed to little or no ventilation, resulting in increased operating temperatures. As the temperature increases, the perfo ...
Elsevier Science Sa2024Advanced Manufacturing and Characterization of Building-Integrated Photovoltaic Modules
Photovoltaic (PV) technology is necessary for global decarbonization. However, one of the challenges of the technology is that its land use may conflict with other space demands. Building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) is a solution to efficiently use the ...
