Designing Urban Building Blocks Around Solar Planning Principles

Abstract: This paper aims to determine the optimum geometry of the building blocks in order to ensure the viability of specific building integrated solar systems (BISTS, BIPV) in the current urban fabric. The research starts with an analysis of the fabric's geometry and characteristics as they are defined by law, and through a literature review, explores the possibilities of building integration of active solar systems in the urban fabric, whilst similar attempts of research are reported and analyzed. For the main body … Show more

“…It evaluates and grades a building's environmental impact and sustainability performance (Vardopoulos, 2019b). The Green Mark allocates points to projects according to their performances in the categories of energy effi ciency, water effi ciency, environmental protection, indoor environmental quality, and other green features and innovations, which are all aspects well-addressed consistently in the wider scholarly literature (Savvides and Vassiliades, 2017). Based on the points allocated, a project was awarded Green Mark Certifi ed, Gold, Gold+and Platinum ratings.…”

“…La morfología urbano-edilicia ha sido ampliamente analizada por sus efectos sobre el comportamiento energético edilicio, disponibilidad solar en fachadas norte y techos, ganancias solares, microclima urbano, confort térmico exterior, dirección y velocidad del viento, contaminantes y calidad del aire (Aboelata, 2020;Bakarman, & Chang, 2015;Bourbia, & Awbi, 2004;Huang et al, 2021;Martinelli, & Matzarakis, 2017;Mesa et al, 2011;Ruggeri et al, 2020;Schulte et al, 2015;Shareef, & Abu-Hijleh, 2020;Vartholomaios, 2017). La temática es de impacto para planificadores y diseñadores preocupados no solo por la calefacción de espacios activa y pasiva, calentamiento de agua para uso doméstico y generación fotovoltaica, sino también por la rehabilitación profunda del parque edilicio Colucci et al, 2017;Huang, & Li, 2017;Li et al 2020b;Savvides, & Vassiliades, 2017;Sharifi, 2019;Shi et al, 2021;Wolff, 2014;Zhang et al 2019).…”

“…It can be seen that the above studies primarily focused on the shape design of PV modules [31,32], performance optimization [36], and performance prediction methods of BIPV or PV arrays [35,38,39]. In addition, Savvides, A., and Vassiliades, C. focused on community-level planning and examined the relationship between blocks and solar radiation in different combinations of simple building blocks (Figure 4) [34]. Pacheco-Torres, R. et al conducted studies on building morphology.…”
