Developing an Evaluation Framework for Solar Building from the Viewpoint of Sustainable and Ecological Cities
How solar building and Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) should be implemented to improve energy efficiency while also fitting in an urban environment has become a critical issue.From the viewpoint of sustainable and ecological cities, this study develops a comprehensive evaluation framework to address this issue.By incorporating research methods involving in-depth interviews, fuzzy questionnaire survey, and AHP method, this study develops a research approach to systematically assess the key decision-making criteria in implementing BIPV.After our investigation, an evaluation framework composing of five dimensions and 27 elements is proposed and tested.The framework provides an outline that can help guide the development of solar buildings and BIPV so as not to over-emphasize on any single aspect.The research also compares the cognitive differences of the importance of the evaluation dimensions and items of the proposed framework for the two major decision-making groups (industrial expert group and the architect/urban designers group) in order to build consensus on how to implement solar building and BIPV.
