Figure 3 shows a summary of the RR results for the 2 c-Si modules and the CdTe module. The RR<br />
demonstrated that independently of technology none of the added modeling steps was able to significantly<br />
improve the annual energy prediction with respect to the basic approach as applied in RR1.<br />
This is mainly due to the fact that the uncertainties of the extracted modeling parameters in the same<br />
range of magnitude are, as the simulated effects. Nevertheless except for some few outliers none of<br />
the models seemed to drastically reduce the accuracy.<br />
The highest error and differences in-between the laboratories was introduced by the translation of the<br />
horizontal direct and diffuse irradiance to in-plane irradiance (hor). In real world individual measurements<br />
of in-plane diffuse irradiance are hardly ever available, but unfortunately most methods require<br />
these numbers to calculate the spectral and angle of incidence losses (sm and rm). Different approaches<br />
were applied by the laboratories with more or less accurate results, but with no clear winner.<br />
One reason therefore are probably also the higher measurement uncertainty of diffuse irradiance itself.<br />
The less critical step within RR1 resulted to be the modeling of module temperature (tm).<br />
If we compare the RR results here to the results of the IEC61853 validation of chapter 3.2.1 we observe<br />
very similar results, but with the main difference that in te majority of the cases the here by all<br />
institutes applied simpler temperature model (Tmod=Tamb+k*Gpoa) seems to be accurate enough for<br />
annual energy productions, without the need to introduce the difficultly to measure wind-class parameters<br />
as required by the IEC 61853 standard.<br />
The final and detailed results of this modelling RR, inclusive a-Si and spectral model results, will be<br />
presented within the last annual report and at one of the next PV conferences.<br />
4. PV as a Building Product (SP6)<br />
4.1 ISAAC SP6 ACTIVITIES (2008)<br />
In 2008, ISAAC has participated at the two meetings organized by the SP6 group. The first was held<br />
at CREST, Loughborough (GB) in April and the second one at Nice (F) in October. Moreover, the SP6<br />
group has organized, together with EPIA, an international BiPV workshop at Nice, where 80 participants<br />
joined. ISAAC attended to this seminar as participants and received a good feedback on its<br />
Swiss BiPV website.<br />
This year, a short study on the actual temperatures of Building integrated PV modules were realized,<br />
where the institute participated to the inventory about module- and air temperatures that can occur<br />
behind a BIPV-system (min, average, max and surrounding temperature).<br />
The published SP6 deliverables today are: ‘Current state-of-the art and best practices of BiPV’, ‘Regulations<br />
and building codes for BiPV systems in Europe’,’ Actual temperatures of building integrated PV<br />
modules’. The reports can be downloaded on the ‘Performance Web-page’ www.pv-performance.org .<br />
