Lightweight Photovoltaic Modules for Low-Load Capacity Building Roofs

该项目旨在开发轻便可靠的高效光伏组件，将太阳能装置扩展到低负载能力的建筑屋顶。新型轻质材料将被开发用于具有快速散热等多功能的包装。该项目将生产经济的原型，并使 促进在轻型建筑上安装晶体硅光伏组件的成本降低，克服目前重玻璃组件的限制，使更多的太阳能在澳大利亚的城市和农村地区得到开发。这将通过提供可再生能源替代传统的化石燃料发电，向零排放建筑迈进一步。

This project aims to develop lightweight and reliable high efficiency photovoltaic modules that expand solar energy installations onto low-load capacity building roofs. New lightweight materials will be developed for packaging with multi-functionalities such as fast heat dissipation. This project will produce economical prototypes and enable and facilitate cost reduction of crystalline silicon photovoltaic module installations on lightweight buildings, overcoming current constraints of heavy glass modules and making more solar energy exploited in both Australia’s urban and rural areas. This will get steps closer to zero emission buildings, by providing renewable energy alternative to conventional fossil fuel-based power generation.
