These strategies can be applied and adapted to high-rise buildings by using direct solar gain, indirect solar gain, isolated solar gain, thermal storage mass and passive cooling systems. On the other hand, considering active solar technologies can also add extra potential by providing part of the building necessary energy demands.
If we go with a traditional solar installation, it takes up the entire rooftop space and only gives us a height of 500mm above the ground (it is for cleaning purposes to remove dust and debris). If we choose an elevated design, we will have a clearing distance of 2000 mm (depending on the consumer’s needs) from the ground level.
Finally, high-rise buildings have great potential to gain solar radiations because of their vast facades. Analyzing case studies illustrate that applying solar passive strategies in high-rise buildings have a meaningful effect on reducing the total annual cooling and heating energy demand.
Elevated solar panel installation not only saves money on electricity costs but also improves the building’s environmental credentials. This aids in the certification process for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). Should we go for an elevated design structure?
A value of approx. 60 to 150 W/m² in relation to the effective area of the building is used to estimate the power demand (power to be supplied) of a high-rise building. Because of the wide range, it must be estimated for the planning of the building whether the figure will be closer to 60 W/m² or 150 W/m².
In addition, the solar potential simulations also showed that for 11-floor residential high-rises with side balconies, the total annual solar energy potentials on facades were 3.3–4.8 times of the solar potential on roof areas (with 950 kWh/m 2 year for solar radiation on roof area).
