6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic support winter construction plan]

Do solar PV systems contribute to building sustainability?

Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems contribute to buildings’ sustainability by reducing the need for electricity from the grid. However, the diffusion of PV systems installed in the built environment (BEPV) in Sweden has historically been slow ( Lindahl et al., 2021) and has therefore been subject to research.

Can solar PV be used in construction industry?

Some scholars have studied PV as part of the construction industry ( Wong and Cronin, 2019; Curtius, 2018 ), identifying challenges due to a lack of BEPV standardization in the industry. However, there is a gap in studies addressing the specific process of implementing solar PV systems in the professional construction industry.

Are solar PV systems an innovation in professional construction?

New knowledge of solar PV systems as an innovation in professional construction is collected, enabling the adaptation of management strategies for its implementation. This knowledge can also be applied generally to other challenges encountered in highly systemic innovation implementation.

Can solar panels generate electricity in winter?

Yes, solar panels are capable of generating a significant amount of electricity in winter. Modern solar PV technology works year-round, and it functions best in cold weather. It’s worth noting that output is typically lower in winter than at summer peak, due to reduced daylight hours.

Can solar panels be used in winter?

Dust, dirt, leaves and other debris are normally cleared by rain, and snow on solar panels slides off when it begins to melt. However, to ensure optimum solar production in winter, it’s worth ensuring that your array is clear and free from anything blocking the light.

Are actor-specific barriers associated with solar PV systems in construction?

Actor-specific barriers were identified and analysed using an abductive approach. In light of established definitions of systemic innovation, the process of implementing solar PV systems in construction involves challenges regarding technical and material issues, competencies, and informal and formal institutions.
