Are dye-sensitized solar cells compatible with glass greenhouses?

Differently, dye-sensitized solar cells seem to be compatible with glass greenhouses, since it is a more mature technology on rigid substrates. In this case, the possibility of modulating the incident light spectrum, although restricted compared to organic solar cells, is combined with the optimal thermal properties ensured by glass.

What is a greenhouse integrated PV (gipv) module?

Get in touch! Traditional greenhouses rely on external fossil fuel derived energy sources to power lighting, heating and forced cooling. Specially designed BiPV solar glass modules for greenhouses, Heliene’s Greenhouse Integrated PV (GiPV) modules offer a sustainable alternative with no additional racking or support required.

Which solar cells are suitable for greenhouse integration?

New generation technologies in PV, such as organic solar cells (OSCs), dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and perovskite solar cells (PSCs), are suitable candidates for greenhouse integration due to the possibility of inherent semi-transparency and flexibility.

Can traditional PV systems be used for greenhouse application?

The use of traditional PV systems for greenhouse application has to take into account their integration on existing structures and glazing, as well as the trade-off between PV and plant requirements for the respective electrical and crop production.

Can solar cells be used in a glass greenhouse?

In hot climate, such systems can be also implemented into the automatic internal movable screens, acting as shading elements to mitigate the overheating in the greenhouse. Differently, dye-sensitized solar cells seem to be compatible with glass greenhouses, since it is a more mature technology on rigid substrates.

Can perovskite solar cells be used in greenhouses?

Perovskite solar cells have a great potential due to the impressive power conversion efficiency, but the interest for their application on greenhouses is still scarce. However, the efforts to achieve semi-transparency, by managing the active material and the device structure, can drive their use in agrivoltaic sector in the short-medium term.
