Objective - Installation of an innovative 210 kWp grid connected PV system, production of 172000 kWh per year;- reduction of system costs on an overall level through volume, integrated design and prefabrication;- Evaluation of technical, architectural and economical aspects;- Investigations of performance and impact on utility grid of a large number of parallel AC modules, including disturbances, harmonics, spikes, surges etc.1. Innovation :- fully integrated design of the entire system from the beginning, including serviceability aspects- technical and organisational involvement of all project partners from the start; energy company, municipality, road directorate, building company, governmental organisations, PV consultants- development and demonstration of innovative design approach and prefabrication mounting methods- architectural integration of larger AC PV modules into a new to build 1650 m long noise barrier, including engineering of rather high structures and crossing a river (200 m of length on a bridge)- multi-functionality of PV modules : energy production and noise reduction2. PV cells in a noise barrier3. Total costs Hfl.4972500 Electricity production 172000kWh/y Conventional energy production Hfl.0.07/kWh4.
