Project (Task) Objectives

To gather relevant information on market available and “under-development” solar envelope systems both in terms of performance and costs
To assess and develop test methods for the performance characterization of solar envelope elements (thermal, electric and daylighting performance characterization)
To assess and develop simulation models for the performance characterization of solar envelope elements (thermal, electric and daylighting performance characterization)
To develop design, manufacturing and installation guidelines for industrialised solar envelope systems, accounting for technological, architectural/aesthetical, economic, financing and customer acceptance viewpoints
To assess and develop business models for solar envelope systems
To enhance awareness of the public and private sector on the treated technologies.
