Strategic PV expansion and its impact on regional electricity self-sufficiency: Case study of Switzerland

Solar photovoltaics (PV) will play an important role in decarbonising the energy system. To date, most assessments of PV transition pathways focus on least-cost aspects, without neither considering the time needed to achieve a substantial PV deployment, no ...

From Marshall Plan to ?Hilton in the wild?: The Transnational History of a Cooperative Housing Block in Esat, Ankara

Sila Karatas

This paper concerns the planning, design, and construction history of a postwar multifamily housing block in Ankara, Turkey, viewed from the perspective of the transnational and local networks behind its realization. Built by the Mintrak Building Cooperati ...

An urban ecohydrological model to quantify the effect of vegetation on urban climate and hydrology (UT&C v1.0)

Gabriele Manoli, Matthias Roth, Paolo Burlando

Increasing urbanization is likely to intensify the urban heat island effect, decrease outdoor thermal comfort, and enhance runoff generation in cities. Urban green spaces are often proposed as a mitigation strategy to counteract these adverse effects, and ...

Big data mining for the estimation of hourly rooftop photovoltaic potential and its uncertainty

Roberto Castello, Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Alina Ursula Rosa Walch

The large-scale deployment of photovoltaics (PV) on building rooftops can play a significant role in the transition to a low-carbon energy system. To date, the lack of high-resolution building and environmental data and the large uncertainties related to e ...

A fast machine learning model for large-scale estimation of annual solar irradiation on rooftops

Roberto Castello, Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Alina Ursula Rosa Walch

Rooftop-mounted solar photovoltaics have shown to be a promising technology to provide clean electricity in urban areas. Several large-scale studies have thus been conducted in different countries and cities worldwide to estimate their PV potential for the ...

Identifying carbon emission reduction potentials of BIPV in high-density cities in Southeast Asia

Shanshan Hsieh, Arno Schlueter

We use life cycle analysis, urban building energy simulations and urban form generation to compare the operational carbon emissions of buildings with building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) in locations with different grid electricity mixes in Southeast A ...

Building Duration / El Portico de los Huespedes

Patricia Guaita, Raffael Baur, Sony Devabhaktuni

El Portico de los Huéspedes is a pedagogical, design-research project that tests the possibility of an open-ended architecture, where duration links between past and future. It is a work of architecture as becoming: ‘work’ meaning the structure, rhythms an ...

A critical comparison of methods to estimate solar rooftop photovoltaic potential in Switzerland

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Alina Ursula Rosa Walch

To understand the opportunities and challenges of large shares of solar photovoltaics (PV) in our electricity mix, various large-scale studies of PV potential on building roofs have been conducted in recent years. The use of different datasets, methods and ...
