Abstract

Si la ville de demain est déjà largement bâtie, une part importante de son tissu présente des déficits significatifs en matière de performance énergétique. Pour atteindre les objectifs ambitieux de la stratégie énergétique 2050, l’assainissement des bâtiments existants est certes nécessaire, mais pas suffisant. La mise en œuvre de systèmes photovoltaïques intégrés aux bâtiments (BIPV), à la fois dans les façades et les toitures, constitue un enjeu incontournable pour les projets de rénovation du parc bâti existant en milieu urbain. Menés dans le cadre du projet de recherche interdisciplinaire ACTIVE INTERFACES, les travaux présentés dans cet article visent à démontrer que l’intégration du BIPV, pour autant qu’elle soit prise en compte dès les premières esquisses du projet, est non seulement réaliste, mais également favorable en termes de performance énergétique, de rentabilité économique et d’expression architecturale.

Dye-sensitized solar cell

A dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC, DSC, DYSC or Grätzel cell) is a low-cost solar cell belonging to the group of thin film solar cells. It is based on a semiconductor formed between a photo-sensitized anode and an electrolyte, a photoelectrochemical system. The modern version of a dye solar cell, also known as the Grätzel cell, was originally co-invented in 1988 by Brian O'Regan and Michael Grätzel at UC Berkeley and this work was later developed by the aforementioned scientists at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) until the publication of the first high efficiency DSSC in 1991.

Thin-film solar cell

Thin-film solar cells are made by depositing one or more thin layers (thin films or TFs) of photovoltaic material onto a substrate, such as glass, plastic or metal. Thin-film solar cells are typically a few nanometers (nm) to a few microns (μm) thick–much thinner than the wafers used in conventional crystalline silicon (c-Si) based solar cells, which can be up to 200 μm thick. Thin-film solar cells are commercially used in several technologies, including cadmium telluride (CdTe), copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS), and amorphous thin-film silicon (a-Si, TF-Si).

Building-integrated photovoltaics

Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) are photovoltaic materials that are used to replace conventional building materials in parts of the building envelope such as the roof, skylights, or facades. They are increasingly being incorporated into the construction of new buildings as a principal or ancillary source of electrical power, although existing buildings may be retrofitted with similar technology.
