EnergyMatching and BIPV.world
The BIPV.world platform was partly created by the EnergyMatching Project. The project focuses on maximizing renewable energy sources in the built environment by developing and demonstrating cost-effective active facade solutions for buildings in combination with an optimized energy system that is connected to the local energy network.
EnergyMatching aims to
- Define adaptive and adaptable envelope solutions for energy harvesting at the building level.
- Integrate energy harvesting solutions into the building and district energy concept.
- Geo-cluster solutions and replicate their potential.
Expected impact
- Reduced cost of manufacturing, installation, and operation of energy harvesting technologies at building and district scale.
- Demonstrated replication that will result in the acceleration of the integration of RES into EU diversified residential buildings and districts.
- Cost-effective solutions supported by advanced economic and business models for investors.
- Maximizing RES generation, demand coverage, and optimal integration of RES with the energy grids.
- Market penetration of effective, modular, robust, and easy-to -integrate energy harvesting solutions.
- Revitalization of the EU construction / energy harvesting sectors and reduction of greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions.
- Improved IEQ with optimal control and use of natural sources.
