Advanced Manufacturing and Characterization of Building-Integrated Photovoltaic Modules

Alejandro Borja Block

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 ...

EPFL2024

Solar photovoltaics (PV) is one of the most competitive renewable energy technologies in order to meet the increasing global energy demand and decrease CO2 emissions by competing effectively with fossil fuels. One of the important applications of PV energy ...

What is the net PV energy production in Switzerland and how can we maximize it?

Gloria Serra Coch, Pablo Francisco Martinez Alcaraz

Maximizing solar energy production in Switzerland is key to meet energy transition goals. Understanding in detail the current situation, and the potential for expansion is important to develop effective strategies. With this study, we want to contribute to ...

2023

This study utilizes the EnergyScope model developed by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) to investigate the integration of Alpine solar power and other photovoltaic (PV) technologies in the Swiss energy system. The model incorporate ...

2023

The degradation of photovoltaic (PV) systems is one of the key factors to address in order to reduce the cost of the electricity produced by increasing the operational lifetime of PV systems. To reduce the degradation, it is imperative to know the degradat ...
