Event Highlight

 

This technical seminar invites Prof. Xiang from the Division of Integrative Systems and Design, HKUST. He will introduce his R&D of climate adaptive solar façade in Norway and Hong Kong. Building consumes around 40% of energy globally, and the ratio reaches 90% in Hong Kong. To reduce carbon emissions, promote clean energy systems and mitigate climate changes in cities, advanced solutions are needed. Prof. Xiang’s research focuses on integrating smart colourful PV systems into building envelopes (especially the façades) which can change tall buildings in large cities from pure energy-consumptive units into energy-productive facilities. Novel high-efficiency and tailored opaque colour PV materials, and semi-transparent PV glazing are now available for pilot projects, presenting promising application scenarios in Hong Kong. Related research in Norwegian contexts and some ongoing projects in Hong Kong (e.g. HKUST campus, SOCAM demo site) will be introduced. Besides energy and aesthetic aspects, climate-adaptive design including smart control and combined vertical greenery systems will also be discussed during the sharing.

We look forward to your attendance!
