1 MW DECENTRALIZED AND BUILDING INTEGRATED PV SYSTEM IN A NEW HOUSING AREA OF A CITY

Objective

The project is a full scale demonstration of a 1 MW BIPV-system in an urban area of the Netherlands through the construction of 350 PV houses. Aims include : large scale demonstration of the technological and architectural potential of BIPV, cost reductions through optimised integration and economies of scale and the establishment of an infrastructure for future co-operation between key decision makers.

Prefabricated PV-roofing and facade elements will be architecturally integrated into 350 hours in Amersfoort, Netherlands. Standard frameless PV modules supplied by 2 or 3 manufacturers will be used to provide a total system power of 1 MW. All houses will have standardised electrical designs, including individual inverters. The PV systems will be owned by REMU, although ownership may be transferred to the building owner in exchange for a financial contribution to the project. REMU will be responsible for the maintenance and operation of the systems for a period of 10 years. The size of the project has necessitated the redesign of the electrical infrastructure by REMU. The local authorities have ordered a consortium of project developers to develop the entire area of 5000 dwellings, schools etc. Monitoring will be done via the television cable network.
