The findings showed that integrating CAESS with solar photovoltaic (PV) systems resulted in a cost savings in energy ranging from $0.015 to $0.021 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for the optimal system. This integration allowed for effective load shifting, leading to significant energy cost reductions.
Challenges and recommendations for future work of BIPVs with ESSs are introduced. Generally, an energy storage system (ESS) is an effective procedure for minimizing the fluctuation of electric energy produced by renewable energy resources for building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) applications.
Aichhorn et al. studied the cost-effectiveness of considering the sizing of BESSs integrated with residential PV systems using the economic energy management strategy (EMS). The results indicated that using BESSs integrated with residential PV systems led to an annual profit of $121.1.
The high cost of electricity in BIPVs can be mitigated by the supplementary integration of PV panels with ESSs. This is necessary to store the excess energy during periods of low demand of energy and return it to the buildings during periods of high energy demand for energy and/or low availability of renewable energy.
