Enabling Massive Integration of PV into Buildings and Infrastructure

Description du projet

Lever les obstacles à l’intégration massive de l’énergie photovoltaïque dans les bâtiments et les infrastructures

Pour atteindre les objectifs européens en matière de climat, il faut que l’adoption des énergies renouvelables connaisse un essor spectaculaire. Alors que les coûts de l’énergie photovoltaïque (PV) ont chuté, l’énergie photovoltaïque intégrée (PVI) reste un marché de niche en raison d’obstacles persistants. Dans ce contexte, le projet MASS-IPV, financé par l’UE, rassemble des acteurs clés pour démontrer comment des outils et des technologies innovants peuvent ouvrir la voie à l’intégration massive de systèmes PVI rentables dans les bâtiments et les infrastructures. Plus précisément, le projet présentera le potentiel des systèmes PVI multifonctionnels et rentables à travers cinq projets de construction différents. Cette initiative représente une étape cruciale vers une augmentation considérable de la mise en œuvre des énergies renouvelables, ce qui nous rapprochera de nos objectifs en matière de protection du climat.

Objectif

A dramatic rise in the implementation of renewable energy sources is needed if we want to meet European climate protection targets. Photovoltaic (PV) costs have decreased spectacularly over time, turning photovoltaics into one of the most competitive sources of electricity in the EU. An economically feasible and space-saving approach to increase the capacity of renewable energy sources is to integrate PV systems into structures that already exist or to build new structures that originally integrate a PV function.
Building-integrated and infrastructure-integrated PV are technologically proven solutions. Due to its multifunctionality, building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) installations can achieve a better economic and ecological balance over their lifetime than conventional building elements. New technologies for PV cells, electrical connections, and front and back covers allow a free choice of formats and colours for integrated PV modules.
Likewise, infrastructure-integrated PV offers a large potential for PV integration, due to the unique advantages of somewhat standardized constructions, little emphasis on aesthetics and a small number of builders and owners compared to the building sector.
However, integrated PV (IPV) is still a niche market. Several barriers are still preventing the massive integration of PV into buildings and infrastructure.
The project MASS-IPV has been conceived as a multidisciplinary action that connects key players along the PV and construction value chains. The goal of the project is to demonstrate that suitable tools, technologies, and methods, combined with a collaboration framework among key stakeholders, can overcome the barriers preventing the mass deployment of IPV and deliver multifunctional and cost-effective IPV systems for buildings and infrastructure. Six different built objects will be used to demonstrate the technology, representing different construction typologies in five different locations in Europe.
