PVSITES WEBINARS
PVSITES project has set itself on an ambitious journey to support the energy transition by driving the BIPV technology to a large market deployment led by the EU industry.
As part of its contribution, PVSITES project acknowledges the vast potential of Building-Integrated Photovoltaics and provides robust BIPV technology solutions that comply with the key demands from the market. The project work comprehends the following aspects:
- Identification of the main driven factors of the BIPV market and regulatory framework.
- Development and demonstration of an ambitious portfolio of building-integrated solar technologies and systems in real buildings in terms of design and simulation, architectural integration, performance, cost effectiveness, grid integration, energy management, LCA, training and awareness.
- Development of a software tool that helps the end users to integrate BIPV in the design, construction and management of their buildings.
Each webinar will provide an ideal platform to learn more about the following:
1. PVSITES project contribution to BIPV market. Introduction to project demo sites, catalogue or products and software tool
2. PVSITES Catalogue of products and applications: BIPV Modules based on crystalline silicon, CIGS technology and advanced grid interface for BIPV system.
3. BIMSolar: software and web platform for simulation, calculations and services for studies and promotion of BIPV solutions. BIMsolar provides a BIM bridge between teams in charge of building design and developers of innovative BIPV systems.
Furthermore, these insightful free webinars will include an opportunity for you to put your questions to the speakers. We are looking forward to an interesting exchange!
Please be aware that the number of participants for the webinar is limited and registrations will be approved on a first-come, first-serve basis.
WEBINARS DETAILS
23 June 2020 11:00- 12:30 - PVSITES project contribution to BIPV market. Introduction to project demo sites, catalogue or products and software tool
The first of this series of 3 webinars is aimed at presenting PVSITES contribution to driving the BIPV technology to a large market deployment led by the EU industry. The speakers will present the project key insights from its 4.5 years of project implementation. From project objectives and challenges to demonstration of reliable advanced BIPV solutions and its effective incorporation onto real buildings. Besides, the panelist will brief the participant on the objectives of the two other webinars of the series.
A moderated Q&A session will conclude the webinar.
24 June 2020 11:00- 12:30 - PVSITES Catalogue of products and applications: BIPV Modules based on crystalline silicon, CIGS technology and advanced grid interface for BIPV system
This webinar will present the catalogue of products developed within PVSITES in its two versions (PDF and web tool). A complete portfolio of BIPV solutions (BIPV Modules based on crystalline silicon, CIGS technology and advanced grid interface for BIPV system) to help architects, designers, planners, engineers, installers, and building managers to build robust knowledge on BIPV available solutions and applications.
The topic will be explored through real-life applications conducted at the project demo sites and will offer opportunities to discuss the technologies with the product's manufacturer.
25 June 2020 11:00- 12:30 - BIMSolar+PVSITES plugins: BIM ready BIPV software / web platform for simulation, calculations and services for studies and promotion of BIPV solutions
This webinar will address the need for a software tool for the joint simulation of BIPV products and building energy performance by presenting BIMSOLAR software as a tool that helps the end-users to integrate BIPV in the design, construction and management of their buildings.
BIMSOLAR works as a Software as a Service platform, providing support to every stakeholder involved in solar building design. eCatalogs feed in solar PV simulation with specific BIPV parameters, enriching virtual design facilities and improving thermal and visual performance. Showcasing BIPV products inside virtual workspaces supports supply chain actors and designers helping them to start a direct relationship with commercial commitment.
The tool will be explored through a practical demonstration based on PVSITES project demo sites.
A moderated Q&A session will conclude the webinar.
