| Summary, etc. | The increasing demand for electricity is straining our natural resources. To secure a sustainable<br/>future, a transition to renewable energy sources is underway aimed at reducing resource<br/>depletion and environmental harm. During the last few years, the evolution of solar industry has<br/>made it possible to use it on domestic scale also. Development of structures that are more<br/>sustainable and eco-friendlier is the imperative of the time. Phase change materials (PCM’s) and<br/>Photovoltaics (PVs) have emerged as a promising technology with potential to revolutionize the<br/>building sector.<br/>In the past although PCM’s and solar panels integration has been studied but none of the study<br/>incorporated the climatic condition of Pakistan. The outcomes of this study offer valuable<br/>insights into the viability of PCM-enhanced BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics) systems as<br/>an effective and economically feasible approach for creating energy-efficient buildings. These<br/>findings also enhance our comprehension of the economic practicality and real-world application<br/>of such technologies within the construction sector. For this purpose, a common residential unit<br/>in Pakistan is selected which is then analyzed in various climatic conditions across the country.<br/>With the inclusion of PCMs demand of energy is decreased by 7-12% in different climatic<br/>conditions with maximum decrease is observed 12.25% in case of Lahore, cooling demand of the<br/>building is decreased by 10-17% whereas maximum decrease is observed in Murree by 17.75%<br/>and heating demand reduced by 12-20%. BIPV system increased the solar production overall by<br/>50.03% and net zero energy target is achieved. The knowledge derived from this research holds<br/>significant value for policymakers, architects, and engineers, empowering them to make<br/>informed decisions when considering the implementation of PCM-enhanced BIPV systems. Such<br/>decisions can play a pivotal role in advancing the creation of environmentally sustainable and<br/>energy-efficient buildings. |
