Photovoltaic Warm Façades with Phase Change Materials in European Climates
Since façade-integrated photovoltaic (PV) modules heat up greatly, which reduces the efficiency of the PV, façade panels with PV and phase change materials (PCM) were developed. PCMs absorb a significant amount of thermal energy during the phase transition from solid to liquid, while maintaining a...
