Development path of photovoltaics in the future Smart Grid

As part of the international cooperation in Task 14, an overview of current demonstration projects of communication and control concepts with a focus on ICT-related aspects of smart grid integration of photovoltaics was compiled. Based on these experiences, a universal development path was outlined, which describes the possible integration of photovoltaics into a future Smart Grid and the transition from a purely passive role to an active integration into grid control and energy markets.

IEA SHC Task 66: Solar Energy Buildings – Presentation of final results

IEA SHC Task 66 “Solar Energy Buildings” presented the final results of their activities at the EuroSun Conference 2024 in Limassol, Cyprus, on Tuesday, 27 August, from 11:00 to 12:30 EEST. Over three years, an international team of scientists and industry representatives collaborated on the topic “Solar Energy Buildings.” The event featured presentations by the task manager, subtask leaders, and an industry representative. Dr. Harald Drück, Manager of Task 66 from the University of Stuttgart’s IGTE, provided an overview of the project and highlighted key achievements. Subtask leaders shared summaries of their findings: Prof. Frank Späte (OTH-AW, Germany) discussed key performance indicators for assessing solar energy buildings, while Elsabet Nielsen (Technical University of Denmark) showcased demonstration projects of completed solar energy buildings. Michael Gumhalter (AEE INTEC, Austria) explored current and future technologies in the field. Additionally, Zanil Narsing from Naked Energy Ltd. (UK) presented on "Solar Energy Buildings with Advanced Solar Thermal and Photovoltaic-Thermal (PVT) Collectors." More details on Task 66 are available on their website: https://task66.iea-shc.org/.

Fact sheets for Solar Energy Building technologies

Fact sheets for technologies in the field of solar energy buildings were developed as part of IEA SHC Task 66 Subtask D to provide concise, easily accessible summaries of key solar technologies, helping stakeholders make informed decisions. They include information on advancements, comparisons, and suitability for different climates, building types, and regional requirements. Categorized into areas such as generation, storage, buildings, and grids, the fact sheets highlight integration strategies for effective solar energy systems. By referencing scientific publications and showcasing practical examples, they demonstrate the functionality and characteristics of selected technologies.
