  • The efficiency of building-integrated photovoltaic(BIPV) system is mainly determined by solar radiation and the temperature of PV modules. The performance of BIPV systems is reported to be different from that of conventional PV systems installed in the open-air. This paper presents the relationship of solar radiation and electricity generation from a 2kWp roof-integrated PV system that is applied as building elements on an experimental house, and the energy saving effect of the BIPV system for a typical house. For the performance evaluation of the BIPV system, it produced a regression equation with measured data for winter days. The regression equation showed that a comparison of the measured electricity generation and the predicted electricity generation of the BIPV system were meaningful. It showed that an annual electricity generation of the system appeared to cover around 52% of an annual electricity consumption of a typical domestic house with the floor area of $96m^2$.

  • This study evaluated the influence of temperature on the PV module surface on power output characteristics, especially for an amorphous transparent thin-film PV module which was applied to a full-scale mock-up model as building integrated photovoltaic system. The tested mock-up consisted of various slopes of PV module, facing to the south. The annual average temperature of the module installed with the slope of $30^{\circ}$ revealed $43.1^{\circ}C$, resulting in $7^{\circ}C$ higher than that measured in PV modules with the slope of $0^{\circ}$and $90^{\circ}$ did. This $30^{\circ}$ inclined PV module also showed the highest power output of 28.5W (measured at 2 PM) than other two modules having the power output of 20.4W and 14.9W in the same time for $0^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ in the slope, respectively. In case of the $30^{\circ}$ inclined PV module, it exhibited very uniform distribution of power output generation even under the higher temperature on the module surface. Consequently, the surface temperature of the PV module analyzed in this study resulted in 0.22% reduction in power output in every $1^{\circ}C$ increase of the module surface temperature.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide foundational data for expansion of solar generation in building application, a clean energy, by introducing applicability of solar power generation system on roofs of industrial buildings and computing expected amounts of power and carbon dioxides reduction. As methodologies of this study, after reviewing 120,000 domestic factories to verify the BIPV feasibility for industrial building sthrough theoretical considerations of solar generation system, we calculated BIPV application methods and subsequent expected power generation quantity and carbon dioxide reductions through roof type analysis. we analyzed four cases of expected power generation amounts of solar batteries according to application methods, and when considering that the main type of roofs are slant roofs according to the investigation result about roof forms of domestic industrial complexes, we believe that the module angle of a slant roof around $17^{\circ}$(case3) is most suitable for the application. Finally, we came up with 517,944[TOE] as the corresponding petroleum tonnage based on this computed expected power generation amount and the amount of 1,214,836[$tCO_2$] carbon dioxide reductions by calculating them by energy sources.

  • Domestic photovoltaic system for roof-top is installed towards the south at an angle of 20 to 35 degrees and the shape of PV array is divided into two kinds; a plane shape and a curved shape. This paper aims to understand an actual condition of PV facility and strengths and weaknesses of support structure production and installation and to consider the best PV surface shape by analyzing theoretical logics of these two surface shapes and architectural perspective-based realistic case studies. This study targeted 98 facilities including common houses, public institutions and education institutions. In common houses, all of 59 PV facilities have a plane surface. In public institutions, 7 of 15 PV facilities have a curved array surface and 8 PV facilities have a plane surface. In education institutions, also, 14 of 24 PV facilities have a plane array surface and 10 PV facilities have a curved surface. Most of 98 facilities have a flat roof supporting shape. However, it was found that the curved shape wasn't positive for PV generation due to the change of radial density and it was at least 10 % more expensive to produce its structure. Also, domestic general large single-plate PV facilities have problems of harmony with buildings and wind load. Therefore, it is considered that for fixed-type roof-top PV, a plane PV array shape is good for optimum generation and economic efficiency and a parallel array structure on the roof surface is favorable to wind load and snow load without being a hindrance to the building facade.

  • This study did quantitative comparative evaluation of changes in generation consequent on reflectivity of the protruding wall near the widow in case of application of PV window system to an apartment house. To be concrete, this study did comparative analysis of the generation of (B) through the process of composing Mock-up (A)comprising the protruding window near the window and Mock-up(B) free of nearby wall interference, and giving change to the reflectivity of the wall (Case_1~3). The analysis result showed that the difference in generation was slight in case solar radiation was less than 10,000Wh in all three conditions. On the contrary, in case solar radiation was more than 10,000 Wh, the generation as against Module(B), was analyzed to be 87~91% in Case_1(5% reflectivity), 18~60% in Case_2(85% reflectivity), and 16~71% in case_3(93% reflectivity), respectively.

  • In recent years, Ulaanbaatar, a capital of Mongolia has witnessed major problem that air quality reaches hazardous level during the winter season. Coal combustion for heating of every house in "Ger" district is main reason. One way to reduce the air pollution is mass usage of electric heater. However, there are several difficulties such as overload and degradation of transformers and other equipment used in distribution and transmission systems as well as power shortage occurrence in evening peak period due to residential consumption. This study aims to contribute for solving the air pollution and power shortage problem in Mongolia. One possible solution could be distributed generation (DG) with photovoltaic (PV) penetration. In this study, PV with energy storage (ES) hybrid system to reduce peak load is analyzed. We proposed the suitable structure of PV-ES hybrid for Mongolian household, and suggested several operation scenarios. Optimal operation algorithm is carried out based on a comparison aspect from economical, grid impact and PV penetration possibility. The economic analyse shows annual income of 520USD, and has a payback period of 8 years for selected scenario. The proposed PV-ES system structure is verified by experimentation set on the building rooftop in city center. The suggested scenario is planned to apply for system in further research.

  • Most PV modules are fabricated by 6 cell-strings with solar cells connected in series. Moreover, bypass diodes are generally installed every 2 cell-strings to prevent PV modules from a damage induced by current mismatch or partial shading. But, in the case of special purpose PV module, like as BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic), the number of cell-strings per module varies according to its size. Differ from a module employing even cell-strings, the configuration of bypass diode should be optimized in the PV module with odd strings because of oppositely facing electrodes. Hence, in this study, electrical characteristics of special purposed PV module with odd string was empirically and theoretically studied depending on arrangement of bypass diode. Here, we assumed that PV module has 3 strings and the number of bypass diodes in the system varies from 2 to 6. In case of 2 bypass diodes, shading on a center string increases short circuit current of the module, because of a parallel circuit induced by 2 bypass diodes connected to center string. Also, the loss is larger, as the shading area in the center string is enlarged. Thus, maximum power of the PV module with 2 bypass diode decreases by up to 59 (%) when shading area varies from 50 to 90 (%). On the other hand, In case of 3 and 6 bypass diodes, the maximum power reduction was within about 3 (W), even the shading area changes from 50 to 90 (%). As a result, It is an alternative to arrange the bypass diode by each string or one bypass diode in the PV module in order to completely bypass current in case of shading, when PV module with odd string are fabricated.

  • The first case of the Central Environmental Dispute Mediation Committee, which recently decided to repay the builder for damaging the solar power plant due to the obstruction of the sunshine of new buildings, came out. Even if the Respondent complies with the provisions of the Building Act, the decision of the Complainant can be considered to have been made in light of the fact that the applicant's power plant has suffered from sunlight damage. However, since the extent of the damage may differ depending on the weather, the decision is reserved, and there is room for additional disputes on a regular basis because the loss of power generation to be continuously generated is not reflected in the future. Therefore, in this study, we try to find the direction of dispute adjustment by summarizing the issues related to the generation of power generation due to the influence of shading through the analysis of the case of dispute related to sunlight related to the PV system.
