“…As a result, BIPV design optimization is essential and is now a challenging task discussed by a few studies. Russo (2012) stated that with improved prediction skills, it will be possible to design more efficient buildingintegrated PV applications and maximize energy harvesting from systems with unusual mounting situations (Susan, 2021). Samarasinghalage et al (2022) introduced a framework that includes several envelope design parameters in addition to PVrelated features, such as PV product type, PV positioning, windowto-wall ratio (WWR), and tilt angle.…”

Building-integrated solar photovoltaic (BIPV) systems have gained attention in current years as a way to recover the building’s thermal comfort and generate sustainable energy in building structures. BIPV systems can provide shade against sunshine while generating ancillary electrical power. Over the last decades, engineers have been trying to improve the efficiency of BIPV systems. BIPV systems with various installation types, including rooftop, balcony, curtain, sunshade, and wall façade types, are being constantly researched and intensively presented for improving power efficiency and reducing air-conditioning use. This work provides an overview of solar BIPV systems and focuses particularly on existing applications of the bifacial type of BIPV systems. The motivation and an overview of BIPV systems are first introduced, followed by the study methodology considered and the contributions. This work discusses PV technologies of bifacial PVs (monocrystalline and polycrystalline bifacial modules), BIPV installation [curtains, rooftop, flat rooftop, transparent faced, balcony windows (transparent), wall opaque facade, flat roof-faced, and skylight sunshade types], simulation and optimization software (simulation software and future trends), zero-energy BIPV technology, and optimization techniques of BIPV systems. Last, suggestion amendments to the current BIPV design that possibly contribute to growing the system’s effectiveness, reliability, and cost as future design theories for the whole system are presented.

One-third of the world's energy are consumed by buildings. In Indonesia, the main source of this energy is fossil fuel that act as the main contributor to global warming and climate change. Improving energy efficiency on a building is important to approach greener environment. EDGE is a tool that respond to the need for a measurable and credible solution to approach green design, including the energy-efficient building design. Here, the calculation of energy efficiency covers the comparative measurement of base case and improved case, including the comparison of geometry and building orientation, mapping of energy use, and prediction of energy harvesting from renewable energy resources. Studying this concept further is important to predict cost of going green, to ensure utility savings, as well as to reduce negative impacts to the environment. This study presents Universitas Ciputra building as the proposed case. This building is chosen since it already had some green features. Additionally, the building also has the potential for on-site renewable energy integration, particularly for solar energy with BIPV concept. Experimental method with simulation as its tool is used to find the energy-efficiency performance of the proposed case. Base case is provided by EDGE. The UC's existing building is set as the 1 st treatment (improved case 1) and UC building with additional PV is set as the 2 nd treatment (improved case 2). The result from EDGE simulation shows that the improved case 1 has 28.66% better energy-efficiency performance. While the improved case 2 (with only 7% annual electricity substituted by renewable energy from PV) has 33.23% better energy performance.

“…To reduce the impact, two main strategies can be adopted. Reducing energy consumption and switching to renewable energy resources (S Susan & Wardhani, 2020a, 2020bSusan Susan et al, 2021). To reduce energy consumption, buildings can either optimize the use of passive design strategies or use energy-efficiency equipment for their active system.…”

generated from a variety of sources, both renewable and nonrenewable. Switching from nonrenewable to renewable energy sources is one of many strategies that can be used to achieve net-zero buildings. In Indonesia, this strategy is very feasible due to its abundant renewable energy resources, particularly solar energy. This research presents a school building as the proposed case. The school, SCK Citra Garden, is chosen as the pilot project due to its access to solar radiation and its minimum shading conditions. Using Helioscope software, BIPV modelling was simulated on its roof, and the electrical energy output from BIPV was calculated. The substitution percentages of BIPV energy output for conventional electrical energy consumed by the building were then measured. This percentage was compared to the National Energy Mix target and Greenhouse Gas Standard to assess its performance towards net-zero school buildings. The result shows that BIPV has a good performance. Even though the substitution percentage is still below the national energy mix target, it exceeds the greenhouse gas standard target for on-site renewable energy tools.
