Abstract

In order to improve the enegy saving in building, development of glazing system has been widely conducted. CdTe PV window system has the feature of energy generation and adjustment on thermal and visual comfort, in this paper, the thermal performance of a glazing system integrated with semi-transparent CdTe solar cells with different transparency (10% and 50%) under different temperature conditions were investigated by experimental measurement (undertaken in a large climate chamber). The U-value of each PV window has been calculated. Moreover, the spectral transmittance within visible has been measured by spectrometer. This study provided comprehensive fundamental information of different CdTe PV window system for their further investigation on energy and visual comfort.
