dc.description.abstract | In this thesis the life cycle of a building integrated PVs has been evaluated to estimate the life
cycle CO2 emissions and other relevant impact categories of multi and mono-si wafers. The
environmental impact for producing a unit square meter of BIPV multi and nono-si wafers are
also analyzed. In addition, the five common types of impact categories of, Climate change,
Ozone depletion, Human toxicity, Particulate matter formation and Fresh water ecotoxicity,
were analyzed in view producing the functional. By comparing the life cycle assessment of the
two PV types, the electricity generated by Mono-si results more of pollution compared to Multisi
wafer. Moreover, PV sizing analysis has been made by considering a household functional
unit. The sizing analysis has considered six poli si and one mono si PV modules. | |
