Heating, cooling and electricity significantly contribute to the usage of energy in buildings . Renewable energy, including solar energy, heat pump, biomass and wind energy, attracts boosting attention to buildings to coming closer to sustainable buildings .
Solar energy is harvested by photovoltaic panels (PV) and/or solar thermal panels in buildings . The amount of energy gained is heavily affected by the extent of solar radiation, which varies strongly through the globe, and it is limited by the relative geographical location of the earth and sun and different months .
5.1. Types of PV/T systems that are suitable for use in buildings The type of energy demands for the individual building and the choice of solar-receiving sections of the building are two important criteria for PV/T system selection to be used in buildings.
Electrical efficiency can be upgraded by decreasing the surface temperatures of the photovoltaic (PV) panels with the working fluid circulating in the system. Building-integrated PV/T (BIPV/T) systems within building façades can successfully produce both electrical and thermal energy and, thus, improve buildings’ energy performance.
For this purpose, they referred to the matrix approach for standardising the unified modelling of different energy processes in the building (energy generation, use and storage). The building energy system using HRESs can be optimised by minimising the total lifecycle cost of this system.
The strategy for the implementation of Renewables in buildings shall consider three steps: To reduce the building thermal energy demand by thermal retrofit (installation of the new generation thermal insulation materials for building facades, triple glazed windows, mechanical ventilation). II.
