Making Better Use of On-site PV Generation: Direct
Making Better Use of On-Site PV Generation: Direct Distribution of DC Power in Buildings Richard Brown, Vagelis Vossos, and Daniel Gerber, Lawrence Berkeley National
LVDC buildings, which are different from traditional buildings using alternating current power, adopt a DC distribution system and integrate renewable energy generation and distributed energy storage.
For building installations, PV systems fall into two categories, building applied photovoltaics (BAPV) and building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). BAPV is the more common type of installation, with the solar collectors located completely outside of the building envelope.
Photovoltaic (PV) technology is an ideal solution for the electrical supply issues that trouble the current climate-change, carbon-intensive world of power generation. PV systems can generate electricity at remote utility-operated "solar farms" or be placed directly on buildings themselves.
