In this study, three different types of experimental models of BIPV curtain wall units with GIGS modules were built, and their thermal and electrical performances were analyzed. The experimental results showed that the temperature of the rear side of the GIGS module with the application of an insulation in the curtain wall spandrels was higher than a GIGS module standalone by $22^{\circ}C$, which results in a reduction in the power generation of the former by 8 %. On the other hand, when ventilation was applied to the model to improve the power generation performance, the module temperature was observed to be $142^{\circ}C$ lower compared to the enclosed type, and the power generation performance improved by 5 %. It confirmed that the temperature increase in the rear side of the GIGS module with insulation layer reduced the electrical performance of the module. Based on this, it is claimed that providing sufficient ventilation at the GIGS applied spandrels contribute to improve the power generation of the GIGS module.

BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic) supplemented the minimum area problem required when installing existing solar modules. However, in order to apply it to buildings, research was needed to increase the aesthetics of solar modules and use them as a design. Accordingly, modules with color applied to the entire surface of the photovoltaic module were being developed, but there was a disadvantage of low power. Therefore, by dividing and bonding the cell strips, it was possible to improve the output power by applying a shingled technology in which other divided cells overlap in a busbar region where light couldn't be received. Shingled technology was advantageous for color modules because the front busbar part that degrades aesthetics was removed. In this research, four color shingled solar modules (Green, Yellow, Blue, Gray) were manufactured and power degradation was analyzed by measuring transmittance and reflectance. Gray color had 80.83% transmittance, which was 31.31% higher than Yellow, resulting in a power difference of 4.45 W.

최근 환경문제 해결 및 미래 성장동력 확보를 위해 전 산업 분야에 걸쳐 친환경 에너지의 활용이 지속적으로 이루어 지고 있다. 특히 설치장소의 제약이 없고 무한한 태양에너지를 활용한 태양광발전 산업에 관심이 집중되고 있으며, 건설산업에서도 건물통합형 태양광발전에 대한 연구와 사례적용이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 최근 건축물의 초고층화는 시공단계에서의 에너지 소비를 크게 증가시키며, 이에 따라 시공단계에서의 친환경에너지 활용 방안에 관한 연구가 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 초고층 거푸집 공사 전력공급을 위한 PV시스템(PVFS)을 제안하고 설계 및 적용타당성 분석을 수행함으로써, 건물시공 단계에서의 친환경 에너지 활용에 대한 가능성을 모색하였다. 사례연구를 통해 설계된 PVFS에 대한 설치면적 위치 확보 및 거푸집 허용하중 초과 여부, 공정영향, 경제성 검토를 수행하였으며, 그 결과 기술발전을 통한 경제성 문제가 해결된다면 가까운 미래에 현장 적용 가능성이 충분할 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구결과는 시공현장에서의 친환경 에너지 적용 가능성을 제시함으로써 친환경에너지 접목을 통한 새로운 건축환경 구축에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

Whilst there are growing interests in pursuing energy efficiency and zero-energy buildings in built environment, it is widely recognised that Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) is one of the most promising and required technologies to achieve these goals in recent years. Although BIPV is a broadly utilized technique in variety of fields in built environments, it is required that generation of BIVP should be analysed and calculated by external specialists. The aim of this research is to focus on developing a new diagram for prediction of the pre-estimation model in early design stage to harness solar radiation data, PV types, slopes, azimuth and so forth. The results of this study show as follows: 1) We analysed 162 districts in a national level and the examined areas were categorised into five zones. The standard deviation of the results was 2.9 per cent; 2) The increased value of solar radiation on a vertical plane in five categorised zones was 42kWh/m3, and the result was similar to the average value of 43.8kWh/m3; and 3) The pre-estimation of diagram was developed based on the categorisation of zones and azimuth as well as the results of the developed diagram showed little difference compared to the previously utilised method. The suggested diagram in this paper will contribute to estimate BIPV without any external contribution to calculate the value. Even though the result of this study shows little difference, it is required to investigate a number of different variables such as BIPV types, modules, slope angle and so forth in order to develop an integrated pre-estimation diagram.

In this study, we fabricated light-weight solar module for various applications such as building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), vehicles, trains, etc. Ethylene tetra fluoro ethylene (ETFE) film was applied as a material to replace the cover glass, which occupies more than 65% of the weight of the PV module. Glass fiber reinforced plastic (GRP) was applied to the ones with a low durability by replacing the cover glass to ETFE. Moreover, to achieve a high solar power conversion in this study, we applied a shingled design to weight reduced solar modules. The shingled module with GRP shows 183.7 W of solar-to-power conversion, and the output reduction rate after weight load test was 1.14%.
