Abstract
For this project, NREL will work with the Participant to model phase change material performance, model photovoltaic thermodynamics performance, and predict photovoltaic module durability based on environmental conditions to help develop optimized photovoltaic roofing designs. This project will develop thermodynamic models of integrated photovoltaic roofing with phase change materials. These models will be used to optimize the materials and design selections based on reducing photovoltaic operating temperatures while balancing cost effective integration of phase change materials.
