Analysis of potential areas for renewable energy
Potential area analysis for greening and photovoltaic (PV) systems is a crucial tool in the context of climate protection, as it specifically identifies areas that can be utilized for climate- and environmentally-friendly measures. Greening of surfaces, particularly roofs and façades, promotes carbon sequestration, mitigates urban heat islands, and improves air quality. The combination of greening and PV systems, such as green solar roofs, offers significant synergy effects: greening regulates temperatures, enhancing the efficiency of PV systems, while PV modules positively influence the microclimate through shading.
This dual use of urban spaces maximizes resource efficiency, reduces land-use conflicts, and contributes to both the reduction of CO₂ emissions and adaptation to climatic changes. Potential area analysis thus optimizes the strategic integration of greening and PV systems into urban planning, making a significant contribution to sustainable urban development and climate protection.
