The application of photovoltaics (PV) is regarded as an important element for sustainable zero-energy buildings that require energy generation through renewable energy systems. When applying such systems, architects and designers must concern themselves with their integration into the overall scheme of their designs. Thus, in this study, a guideline for design processes including PV modules in new construction is suggested.
This study followed a four-step process. First, design parameters were extracted for an evaluation. The exterior materials and color of a detached house were investigated as evaluation parameters. An investigation focusing on the existing PV literature and the current catalogue of PV modules was then carried out. The color of the PV module was then selected from existing colors. In the second step, an experiment to evaluate reactions to a variety of PV modules and building exterior factors, which the authors refer to as a sensitivity evaluation, was carried out using computer graphics (CG). In the third step, the characteristics of the sensitivity evaluation were analyzed by means of a factor analysis. The cognitive structure formulated during the sensitivity evaluation was also examined through a factor analysis. Fourth, the evaluation characteristics of the categories of the respective parameters were analyzed through a multi-regression method (HAYASHI I). Finally, a method of applying PV modules to the exterior of the house was proposed.
Further various and specific studies considering characteristics that should be taken into account by designers when applying PV modules as design elements should also be performed.
