Opportunity #6 – Phase Change Materials Phase change materials (PCMs) have been considered for thermal storage in buildings for the last 30 years. With the advent of PCMs implemented in gypsum board, plaster, concrete, or other wall covering materials, thermal storage can be part of the building structure even for light weight buildings. PCM prototype systems have been developed and tested to enhance the thermal energy storage (TES) capacity of standard building materials with the goal of shifting peak loads and maximizing solar energy utilization. NREL is currently developing new analytical models to characterize the performance of PCM in energy modeling programs, but was not able to acquire specific information on new systems or technologies that are receiving funding through the DOE BTP. Outside of the DOE BTP, the California Energy Commission Public Interest Energy Research (PIER) program is one of the larger energy efficiency R&D programs in the country. Active PCM research projects are listed below (taken directly from the California Energy Commission PIER Web site): Phase-Change Frame Walls (PCFWs) for Peak Demand Reduction, Load Shifting, and Energy Conservation in California http://www.energy.ca.gov/pier/portfolio/Content/06/EISG/Phase%20Change%20Frame%20 Walls%20PCFWs.htm Improved Insulation for Buildings and Refrigeration http://www.energy.ca.gov/pier/portfolio/Content/06/EISG/Improved%20Insulation%20for% 20Buildings.htm/ Contact information: Deputy Director: Laurie ten Hope, 916-654-4878 http://www.energy.ca.gov/research/contactus.html Demonstration Potential: 4 The demonstration potential for this technology was ranked medium-high due to the emerging nature of this technology and the need for field testing to prove its commercial validity. Opportunity #7 – PV Facades Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is an emerging field in PV products. BIPV combines PV modules into the building envelope, typically in the roof, glazing, or facade. Savings in materials and electricity costs can be realized through BIPV systems, which serve as building envelope materials and power generators. The demand for BIPV systems is expanding, and the DOE estimates that up to 50% of the United States’ energy needs could be met by using BIPV systems if they were fully deployed in building construction. PV facades can be constructed using traditional thick crystal products mounted in fixed positions or on tracking systems as part of an external shading system, or they can be BIPV where a thin- film product is incorporated into the building material. Commercial thin-film materials currently deliver 4 – 5W/ft2 of PV area under full sun. The technology type utilized is dependent upon the construction application. Fixed, thick crystal products could be used in renovations or on existing buildings, whereas facades incorporating 158PDF Image | 4th Annual Chena Renewable Energy Fair
