PV Glasses in Human-Centred Infrastructure for Sustainable Development Fostering SDG 11 Supporting Industry 5.0
摘要
Photovoltaic (PV) glasses are a pioneering step to future sustainable infrastructure meeting the demands of SDG 11- Sustainable Cities & Communities. These smart glasses use solar energy, while allowing natural light to enter buildings, which saves energy and improves urban livability. Uniting the concepts of human-centered infrastructure, PV glasses will allow smart buildings to easily integrate renewable energy sources which are in line with the 5th Industrial revolution’s vision of intelligent, sustainable and connected systems. Strong regulatory and policy frameworks are needed to achieve the full potential of PV glasses. Standards on material safety, energy efficiency, and environmental compliance must be put in place. Incentives like tax breaks, subsidies and R&D funding can facilitate adoption. Therefore, the deployment of RE technologies such as PV glasses in new constructions and retrofitting projects should be mandated and made obligatory through urban planning policies. International cooperation is also vital, enabling knowledge sharing and alignment of global standards. Regulatory frameworks that support solar PV glasses in Industry 5.0 by uniting technology, sustainability, and human-centric design can bring a revolution in the urban landscape. Encouraging not just the environment, but also social equity and economic resilience that lead to smarter, greener cities focusing on people and planet.
