Architectural integration of solar thermal systems

Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst

The amount of solar energy reaching the Earth in one hour equals the total amount of primary energy used in the world during one year. Thanks to the different solar technologies presently available, most energy needs of buildings can today be covered by so ...

Bringing colours to solar collectors: a contribution to an increased building "integrability"

Andreas Schueler, Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst

One main obstacle to facade integration of solar thermal collectors lies in the formal characteristics and low flexibility of available products. Major problems are the black and irregular appearance of their absorbers, their low dimensional flexibility an ...

Development of solar ventilated façade system for building energy retrofit

Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst, Alessia Giovanardi

In the perspective of setting ambitious targets for new buildings energy performance and of introducing new approaches to retrofit existing buildings, the implementation of solar thermal collectors into façade becomes very interesting Several research acti ...

Barriers and Needs for Building Integration of Solar Thermal and Photovoltaics

Maria Cristina Munari Probst

The International Energy Agency (IEA) Task 41 is conducting an international survey concerning the integration of solar energy systems and architecture in order to identify barriers that architects are facing in incorporating active solar technologies in t ...

Architectural integration and design of solar thermal systems

Maria Cristina Munari Probst

Although mature technologies at competitive prices are largely available, solar thermal is not yet playing the important role it deserves in the reduction of buildings fossil energy consumption. The generally low architectural quality characterizing existi ...

Facade Integration of Solar Thermal Collectors: A Breakthrough?

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Andreas Schueler, Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst, Estelle De Chambrier

One main barrier to the acceptability of façade use of solar thermal collectors is their black appearance and the visibility of piping or absorber irregularities through the glazing. To facilitate façade integration, a project was set up to develop selecti ...

Nanostructured Coatings on Glazing for Active Solar Facades

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst, Estelle De Chambrier, Josef Andreas Schuler, Dipanwita Dutta

Thin films on glazing play an important role in the design of solar energy conversion systems as thermal collectors or photovoltaic panels. Antireflective coatings based on porous silicon dioxide are well established in the field of solar collector glazing ...

Towards an improved architectural quality of building integrated solar thermal systems (BIST)

Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst

Architectural integration is a major issue in the development and spreading of solar thermal technologies. Yet the architectural quality of most existing building integrated solar thermal systems (BIST) is quite poor, which often discourages potential new ...
