ETIP PV calls for Experts to join its Working Group on Integrated PV

The working group Integrated Photovoltaics focuses on technological and business opportunities and challenges for large-scale applications of photovoltaics, specifically allowing for multiple functionality of PV covered area. For example, the working group will focus on integration of PV in buildings (BIPV), infrastructures (IIPV), vehicles (VIPV), agriculture (Agro-PV). In addition to the overall PV goal of lowering Levelized Cost of Electricity, Integrated Photovoltaics applications can bring the extra value of decentralized, point-of-use electricity generation and simultaneously fulfill, e.g., a roofing, facade or sound barrier function.

 

More specifically, the working group on Integrated PV  will pursue the following agenda:

- Publishing an Agri PV report on net positive impact of Agri-PV on agricultural production

Working around a factsheet on BIPV

- Publication of a white paper on the reliability of floating PV

 

The objective of the working group work is to define use cases and research needs. Its work combines inputs from practitioners with assessments of the state of the art (scientific literature, patent landscaping, gap analysis) to define roadmaps and propose research themes. The working group provides networking opportunities among technical and market experts.


How to apply
