Hybrid solar cells integrated glassblock and prestressed panel made of dry-assembled glassblocks for the construction of traslucent building envelopes

摘要

A hybrid solar cells integrated glassblock structure, includes, at least one glass shell (0) having at least a light transparent surface (2, 9, 13) intended to be exposed to solar radiations, a Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSC) device (3, 8) associated to the surface (2, 9, 13) so as to receive solar radiations passing through the surface, the device having electric contacts, at least one hole (7, 11, 15, 17) allowing passage to an external area of the glassblock of electrical connections leading to the device contacts; and a prestressed and dry assembled glassblock panel for the construction of translucent building envelope even in high-rise buildings, which may also provide high performance related to energy production and saving.

主权项

1. A hybrid solar cells integrated structure, comprising,
a glass shell comprising a glass block having a planar light transparent surface configured to be exposed to solar radiations; a complete dye-sensitized Solar Cell (DSC) module directly fixed to the planar light transparent surface of the glass block with sides normal to the planar light transparent surface extending therefrom, so as to receive solar radiations passing through said planar light transparent surface, said module having electric contacts; and a hole allowing passage to an external area of the glass block of electrical connections leading to said electrical contacts.
