This study elaborates the theoretical basis of zero energy buildings and BIPV as well as the current status of the construction of the world’s low-carbon building standard system, and it summarizes the annual electricity generation of zero carbon buildings adopting BIPV in some European countries.
In 2018, the power generation of the photovoltaic curtain wall reached 107,600 kWh, while the annual power consumption of the building’s air-conditioning and cooling system was reduced by 385,200 kWh, and the annual energy consumption of the building heating system was reduced by 357,200 kWh.
In real applications, it is difficult for a system with a large size of collectors to achieve this threshold without thermal storage because a large portion of solar energy cannot be utilized in summer as a result of seasonal mismatches between solar energy and building loads.
Solar systems are not yet cost effective compared with the conventional ASHP heating system that uses grid power. Regardless of the forms of solar panels, the addition of solar energy systems increases the EAC value by 3.2% (Sect. "Cost and environment impact").
