It has been reported that after the Government''s introduction of the Feed-in Tariff Scheme in collaboration with the two power companies in 2018, solar energy generation systems have been installed on the rooftops of quite a number of private buildings, and that
Abstract. Solar technologies are an efficient means of addressing environmental pollution and climate change challenges. In this study, an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) system driven by solar evacuated glass tubes named solar water power generation (SWPG) system was experimentally investigated to explore the performance …
The buildings considered in this work are located at Xi''an, approximately the geographic center of China. The position of Xi''an is 34.34 N and 108.94 E. A commercial office block (10,000 m 2) and an independent villa are selected as the case study. Fig. 2 (a) shows the measured daily load profile for a typical office building [38].
Achieving zero energy consumption in buildings is one of the most effective ways of achieving ''carbon neutrality'' and contributing to a green and sustainable global development. Currently, BIPV systems are one of the main approaches to achieving zero energy in buildings in many countries. This paper presents the evolution of BIPV …
