Abstract

The chapter describes the photovoltaic systems and the implementation solutions, along with the legal frame supporting their integration in the built environment in various regions all over the world, considering the access of the solar radiation to the PV modules along with the influence of meteorological parameters (e.g. humidity) on the PV output. The design algorithm of the PV systems implemented in the built environment is discussed based on a comparative analysis of the grid-connected and stand-alone PV systems. Increasing the electrical output of the photovoltaic systems by solar tracking is investigated in detail on modelling the solar and the tracking angles of four distinct tracking mechanisms types. A comparative analysis is developed through numerical simulations and experimental testing, of their energy output at different latitudes, when using various tracking programs. The PV systems’ maintenance and integration in the existing electric infrastructure along with the financial aspects related to their implementation, operation and management are discussed.
