摘要: It is generally expected that in the future, photovoltaics will be able to contribute substantially mainstream power production, and through their widespread commercialization, Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) systems become backbone of zero-energy building (ZEB) European target for 2020. An outlook on BIPV market estimated worldwide installed capacity during 2016 nearly 2 GW, confirming growing trend, increasing by 12.6% compared 2015, when 1.78 GW were [1]. This paper presents results Dem4BIPV project (http://www.dem4bipv.eu/), which has been designed develop innovative master-level courseware various academic institutes focusing order bridge existing knowledge gaps education audiences (students professionals sector) as well create awareness subject. A survey among stakeholders showed lack one barriers deployment helping at same time identify teaching goals subsequently courses addressing needs each audience related BIPV. Finally, a full 40 ECTS curriculum was developed briefly presented this paper.
