BIPV, PV generation potential, Urban morphologyAbstract
The balance between energy consumption and generation allows buildings to reduce their environmental impact, generating their own energy or contributing to the energy consumed in the city. Urban morphology is crucial for cities to be more energy efficient. This research aims to investigate the potential for generating BIPV systems in residential buildings, considering the limits of exposure to solar radiation caused by the urban form. As a method, it carried out surveys of primary sources and on-site observations in an urban section of a medium-sized city in RS, seeking to identify existing urban configuration patterns. The analyzes and evaluations were carried out on models representative of the observed urban configuration. As results, a critical analysis is presented on the restrictions that urban morphology imposes on PV generation, based on variables such as different solar orientations, dimensions of roads and lots, and building volume. The results obtained help guide urban planning policy, favoring better use of renewable and inexhaustible solar energy.
