Solar PV In Architecture

Revolutionary of photovoltaic applications in the architectural building has undergone rapid development, starting from ordinary technology to high technology in the 3rd generation, they are:

1. First generation (the 1980s)

PV panel module with an iron framework just mounted on the field of building flat roof with a brace (tracking).

2. Second generation (the 1990s)

Photovoltaic cells (PV) developed more integrated part of building materials: roof materials (tiles, shingles).

Solar Home Heating System by SolTech Energy

A Swedish company SolTech Energy, was recently awarded “Hottest New Material 2010” for their unique solar home heating system that it contained in the roof tile made of ordinary transparent glass. The fascinating home warming tiles (slightly ironically) give the appearance of the roof, beautiful cool enough unlike anything we’ve ever seen before.

Solar Roof Tiles from Tegolasolare

Tegolasolare is the Italian company that works to bring the language of historical architecture in the modern world through solar panels. By combining tradition and modernity, they have developed a roof tile made from red clay that is similar to traditional tiles of terracotta, but by an embedded photovoltaic panel.

Solar Vintage by Elena Corchero

This collection of fine accessories exploring ways to incorporate the solar cells into textiles in which technology meets tradition. Decorative accessories such as handheld fans and dress are charged when used outdoors in daylight. When brought indoors in the afternoon they turned into a decorative ambient light display for the home, powered only by energy stored earlier. Solar vintage collection explores the mobile power from the perspective of haute couture. Energy can be captured passively with environment-friendly way while the user moves outside of everyday life and at a distance from traditional resources. Electronic components such as solar cells, resistors and LED integrated directly into the antique and hands-decorated fabrics and using conductive thread wired together into working circuits. Embroidery motifs and organic prints recall endangered birds. Material used in each piece is selected with environmental sensitivity in mind. For example, support structures and yarn are cellulose-based (thin wood and viscose), and electronic components are free of hazardous materials. [Via]

Flexible Solar Cell by Spheral Solar Power

Car bonnets, roof tiles and building facades can quickly enter the colorful and flexible solar panels to complement their conventional resources. Spheral Solar Power has produced efficient and flexible solar cells, which produces electricity at a lower cost and open an array of new applications for renewable energy.

Like denim material consists of thousands of tiny silicon beads attached to aluminum foil – each bead acting as an individual solar cells and uneven surfaces offer a larger area for light collection. Production costs can be reduced through the use of recycled silicon and this, combined with the efficiency comparable to standards photovoltaic cells and the versatility of a flexible material make Spheral solar cells potential to dramatically expand the use of renewable energy.

Building design can take advantage of hundreds of colors, styles and shapes to smoothly integrate solar cells. Spheral cells can be used to reflect light from or transmit light into the building and expand their flexibility for use in the company logo.

In tile the cells can be incorporated into the curved substrate opening various markets applications and automobile manufacturer may have found an alternative aerodynamic to rigid photovoltaic cells that are not practical in terms of vehicle design.

Commercial production of flexible cells are expected to begin in late 2003.
