Vehicle-Integrated Photovoltaics (VIPV): Flexible solar modules for more power

Vehicle Integrated Photovoltaics (VIPV) is the mechanical,
electrical and design integration of photovoltaic modules in
vehicles. The PV modules fit seamlessly into the vehicle shell
and are connected to electrical consumers or the drive battery in
electric vehicles. What potential lies dormant in VIPV? Where is
VIPV already being used? And what are currently still the biggest
hurdles? Dr. Martin Heinrich, Head of Group Encapsulation and
Integration at Fraunhofer ISE and Chairman of the PV in Motion
Conference, tells us.


Timeline:




2.38: What can we expect from this kind of photovoltaik
modules?




4.32: How far off are we from this beeing ready for mass
production?




7.21: What are the biggest difficulties or challenges of
VIPV?




12.50: Are there some regulatory issues that need to be
adressed?
