Abstract
In the overall life cycle energy consumption of China’s construction sector, building energy usage constitutes a significant portion, and the process of China’s dual carbon goals can be greatly accelerated by reducing building operation energy consumption. Solar energy, as a kind of renewable energy, is increasingly mature in construction applications. PV/T comprehensive utilization technology has attracted much attention in using solar energy. The flexible PV/T system can fit on the facade of various bending angles. This paper conducts indoor variable working conditions (irradiance and volume flow) and flexible PV/T and flexible PV contrast experiments on the existing flexible PV/T system. Observations reveal a direct correlation between irradiance, volume flow rate, electric power enhancement, and thermal efficiency in the flexible PV/T system. Flexible PV/T systems can produce more electricity than flexible PV systems at the same irradiance.
