Abstract

PVCOM project has as objective the development of new solutions for the integration of PV technology in urban applications. Despite traditional glass-glass configuration, the use of composite materials for encapsulation is proposed because its high transparency, low weight and great integration possibilities. Four solutions, a solar table, a solar slate tile, a PV shelter and an electric vehicle roof are proposed. For each proposed application conceptual designs using c-Si and CIGS technologies are done. Conceptual designs are based on legal and end-user’s requirements and involved technologies limitations. More appropriated resin systems and PV system configuration have been also defined. Conceptual designs will be used as reference for the manufacturing of conceptual-proof specimens, testing and the detailed design of final prototypes.
