Prefabricated, lightweight, energy-active wall panel for zero-emission buildings - PRE-ActiVer

Project summary

Rationale / Needs to be addressed_x000D_ The PRE-ActiVer address the goal of the European construction market: to reduce CO2 emissions and energy demand through zero-carbon buildings, facing the need for advancement in the field of BIPV, engaging with circularity and environmental dimensions._x000D_ Objectives_x000D_ To develop, construct and investigate the lightweight wall panel equipped with interconnected PV panels and a heat dissipation system. The ActiVer will be prefabricated, easy to assemble and maintain, with replaceable PV elements._x000D_ Potential applications_x000D_ The potential application of developed façade systems will be unlimited within the building industry, including the newly designed and existing buildings._x000D_ Impact and potential benefits_x000D_ The PRE-ActiVer project is within the line of the growing need for prefabrication in the construction industry, reusing of building materials, on-site waste reduction and enhancement of building energy performance. Expected energy potential: 80-180 kWh/(m2⋅a).
