Technical FAQs 4

Does photovoltaic green roof affect energy balance?

Energy fluxes on photovoltaic green roof are investigated and modelled in detail. Longwave radiation of photovoltaics significantly impacts energy balance. Shading and view factor calculation in 3D is developed and shared. Parametric model for photovoltaic green roof surface temperature is developed.

Can a photovoltaic green roof model reflected solar radiation?

In a study by He et al. (He et al., 2024) the shortwave solar radiation on a photovoltaic green roof was modelled in detail, including the reflected solar radiation, however they used a numerical model which is not publicly available, so a simple use of their model for further calculations is not possible.

What is a photovoltaic green roof?

Photovoltaic green roofs represent an emerging technology that combines on-site renewable energy production with the environmental benefits of green roofs. Detailed models for calculating energy fluxes on photovoltaic green roofs are presented, relying on accessible meteorological data and setup geometry as input data.

Does a green roof influence a photovoltaic module temperature?

Additionally, large-scale green roof and/or different vegetation could also influence the photovoltaic module temperature, which is why it was advised by authors to validate the PV module temperature for each particular setup. The models presented in the study have limitations that come from different assumptions.
