Sinke, W.C. (author), Folkerts, W. (author), Weeber, A.W. (author)Zonne-energie (hier bedoeld: zonnestroom) is een onmisbare bouwsteen voor een duurzaam en klimaatneutraal energiesysteem; wereldwijd, in Europa en in Nederland. De kosten zijn spectaculair gedaald door een zeer succesvolle combinatie van onderzoek & innovatie en opschaling door marktontwikkeling. Dat is goed nieuws voor de noodzakelijke...other 2021

de Jong, M.M. (author), Kester, J.C.P. (author), van der Graaf, J. (author), Verkuilen, S. (author), Folkerts, W. (author)In the Solar Highways project, knowledge institutes ECN and SEAC, and the executive body of the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment (Rijkswaterstaat) teamed up to build a bifacial fully integrated solar noise barrier. Not only is it the largest solar noise barrier in the Netherlands to date, it will also be the largest bifacial...conference paper 2018

(author)In this work we consider noise barriers with integrated photovoltaic modules. The novelty is that bifacial modules are considered. A full scale bifacial photovoltaic noise barrier was built and its power output was monitored. In addition we developed an advanced numerical model for predicting this power output for given weather conditions....article 2018

Leghissa, G. (author), van den Donker, M.N. (author), Tzikas, C. (author), Verbong, G. (author), Folkerts, W. (author)There is a growing interest in community-owned large-scale solar projects. However, if large amounts of electricity generated by these PV installations are not directly consumed by the local loads, grid congestion can arise, due to constrains in the local electricity network. This paper explores when grid congestion starts to occur and whether...conference paper 2018

Valckenborg, R.M.E. (author), Sasidharan, S. (author), Tzikas, C. (author), Santbergen, R. (author), van de Wall, W. (author), Folkerts, W. (author)Choosing the most suitable PV technology for a ZigZag-structured façade cannot be based on one aspect, but involves four important aspects. First, a maximal energy density (Wp/m2 panel) of the PV-panel itself is preferred. Secondly, the amount of irradiance from the reflective panels onto the PV-panels should be maximized. However that could...conference paper 2018

Sinapis, K. (author), Pacheco Bubi, R. (author), Slooff, L.H. (author), Folkerts, W. (author), Okel, L.A.G. (author)Large scale implementation of PV in urban areas asks for more shadow tolerant modules and more size flexibility. Power optimizers and micro inverters can be used to improve shadow tolerance of standard c-Si modules but the electrical interconnection and the size of cell groups in the standard module design is a limiting factor when it comes to...conference paper 2018

At present, the international market for floating PV is small compared to the total PV market, but expected to become a multi-billion market in the coming years. A main driver for the growth of the market for floating PV is the mitigation of land cost....conference paper 2018
