Transparent solar modules in the field of urbanization and agri-PV | Agri-photovoltaics

First of all, automation or industrial automation is, in addition to flexibility and fast response times, also an important factor in reducing the costs of personnel and the flow of goods. This includes sensor technology and robotics.

At the same time, automation in logistics and intralogistics with the same effect above, driven by e-commerce, has significantly advanced global supply chains.

Two new problem areas have emerged for the economy. Firstly, there are the global trouble spots or local incidents ( world logistics and the container ship “Ever Given” in the Suez Canal ) and the enormous energy requirements that go hand in hand with the increased requirements in the area of ​​rapid availability and flexibility in response to changes. Logistics can only respond to the former with decentralized and regional buffer warehouses ( micro hubs ). This has been sorely neglected as the economy has become obsessed with growth.

The increased energy demand cannot simply continue as usual, otherwise the natural resources that still exist, such as the environment, are in danger of collapsing. With the increased awareness of sustainable business, the focus is on autonomous power supply. Even with regard to impending power outages, autonomous power supply has a significant advantage: more security and more planning.

We know from the urbanization issue that existing resources and areas are limited and are already exceeding the limit in many areas. Compacting existing areas alone is not enough. In return, compensation is essential. At the same time, where people live in dense spaces, further space measures are required to compensate for this spatial densification. A contradiction in itself.

➡️ This means that as compaction increases, the functionality of the areas must be increased.

With Smart Columbarium , for example, it is possible to reduce the amount of cemetery space required in cities by over 90%, so that green spaces can be created to compensate for residents.

Partially transparent solar modules are already being used in a research facility in the “Model Region Agri-Photovoltaics Baden Württemberg”.

The increase in functionality with a simultaneous impact on autonomous power supply has also begun in the area of ​​photovoltaics. Existing sealed roof surfaces can be used to generate electricity by installing solar modules, thus adding another function or positive property.

The same applies to the sealed and asphalted areas that are massive in urbanized areas. A simple roof with solar modules is not enough here. This means that the purpose of a functionality must be accompanied by a positive effect for people and the environment. Especially in urbanized areas, where densification means that the remaining open spaces are a far more important indicator of a high quality of life and a feel-good factor for a city. Negative moods turn into destructive behaviors that have uncontrolled consequences.

Mobility is an important asset today for perceived freedom. Open and paved parking options are easy and inexpensive. Weather protection, i.e. a roof, is already seen as a cost factor. Generating electricity with a solar roof and thus increasing functionality (power generation & weather protection) arouses great interest.

The solar roofing with transparent solar modules completes the functionality for asphalt surfaces. In addition to the possibility of greening underneath the transparent solar modules, acceptance and the feel-good factor also increase. Light-flooded, covered and green parking areas are in complete contrast to the gray parking halls covered by sunlight.

The decisive advantage of Agri-PV is the added functionality of generating electricity in combination with the agricultural operation. This also applies to cultivation in your own allotment garden or private green areas. With transparent and sunlight-permeable solar modules, cultivation of e.g. fruits or vegetables is possible without any problems. With your own autonomous power supply, the operation of an automated and moisture sensor-controlled pumping system with fertilizer enrichment can be expanded for drip irrigation.

In addition, such an Agri-PV system also protects against extreme weather events such as heavy rain and hail.

Semi-transparent or partially transparent solar modules are already in use for Agri-PV, solar carport systems and solar patio roofing.

These partially transparent solar modules are used in a research facility in the “Model Region Agri-Photovoltaics Baden-Württemberg”.
