The Copenhagen International School<\/a> by C.F. M\u00f8ller Architects<\/a> is many wonderful things, but perhaps most remarkably, it is the architecture of willingness and foresight. With a fa\u00e7ade encased in over 12,000 solar tiles, this project pushes well beyond carbon-neutrality while proving that a building can reject the dreary aesthetic that architects often associate with building-integrated photovoltaics. With deep pedagogical meaning, this school is not only a site of learning for the students within, but an indispensable resource for the wider world.<\/p>\n

To understand this cutting edge fa\u00e7ade, we spoke with Mads Mandrup Hansen, Partner at C.F. M\u00f8ller Architects and Lead Architect on The Copenhagen International School project. Mandrup said, \u201cWhat we wanted to do was to expose ourselves as a leader in sustainable design, but also create a truly sustainable project, not just for the sake of greenwashing. We thought that the architecture of the school should communicate many of the climate-based concerns that people are thinking about these days, all over the world.\u201d This unprecedented building does just that.<\/p>\n

The design for the Copenhagen International School encourages students to observe and interact with the solar tiles and their associated energy production on a daily basis.<\/i><\/p>\n

The Copenhagen International School’s unique fa\u00e7ade features 12,000 identical sea-green solar tiles that cover a total area of 6,048 square meters, supplying 300 megawatt hours of electricity per year \u2014 more than half of the school\u2019s power needs. Forming one of the largest building-integrated solar power plants in Denmark, this phenomenal result was only possible through the collaboration of three distinct units: a willing client that saw a holistic vision beyond his immediate needs, architects equipped to create something drastic, and finally, an international community of manufacturers.<\/p>\n

As Mandrup puts it, \u201cthe development of the glass happened in Switzerland, the manufacturing of the glass happened in Dubai, the intelligence behind the \u201cback contact\u201d \u2014 the part that harvests the electricity \u2014 happened in Taiwan, and the gluing together of all those parts happened in Croatia. We also wanted to make sure that it would be safe and able to withstand the exposed environment of Copenhagen\u2019s outer-harbor. So we tested the panels at a climate lab in Spain, where we threw large gusts of wind at them. It was a truly global operation. The school continues to use this story to educate the students on how manufacturing occurs in this century.\u201d<\/p>\n

Located on Copenhagen’s outer harbor, C.F. M\u00f8ller Architects sought to create a building that would reflect its immediate landscape as well as provoke conservation around global climate concerns.<\/i><\/p>\n

The process kicked off with a worldwide search for a manufacturer that could produce panels colored by light. According to Mandrup, it is very difficult to produce colored solar panels without reducing their energy efficiency, which is why we so often see them produced dreary gray and black colors. \u201cWe didn\u2019t want this large-scale school to be a gloomy dark box, and those were many of the precedents we were seeing,\u201d Mandrup said.<\/p>\n

\n\t\n\t\n<\/div>\n\n

Determined to design something truly visionary, C.F. M\u00f8ller Architects discovered Swissinso<\/b><\/a>, a Swiss manufacturer of solar panels that works collaboratively with a small group of scientists at Ecole Polytechnique Federale in Lausanne<\/a> (EPFL).<\/p>\n

\u201cEPFL has developed a special glass filter that allows the solar panel to take on one single color. The filter determines which wavelengths of light will be reflected as a visible color,” Mandrup said. The rest of the sunlight is absorbed by the solar panel and converted into energy. “After 12 years of research, they have figured out a way to do this without using pigment and without reducing the the energy efficiency of the glass. The science is very complicated, but the way it works is very similar to the Iris Effect, and how you sometimes see a colorful rainbow reflected on thin surfaces like soap bubbles.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today, these panels are produced in brick red, royal blue, golden yellow and sea green, as seen on the Copenhagen International School.<\/p>\n

\n\t\n\t\n<\/div>\n\n

Fascinatingly, while the building looks like it is encased in three or four different hues, all of the panels are in fact the exact same color. \u201cIt just depends on the way the panel is angled, and how the sun hits its individual surface,\u201d Mandrup said. To create the building\u2019s stunning sequin-like effect, the architects tilted each panel at a 5-degree angle with one of four different orientations. Throughout the day, the moir\u00e9 of colors shifts from blue to green, reflecting the water and crashing waves of the harbor. The design “has an ability to communicate the landscape, and plays with the idea of creating architecture that sets a scene.\u201d<\/p>\n

While C.F. M\u00f8ller Architects played with differences in each panel\u2019s angle and placement, there was no room for such variation when it came to the dimensions of each tile. The architects discovered that it was extremely important for each panel to be the exact same size \u2014 in this case, 70-centimeters by 70-centimeters.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has to do with the way that the electricity is harvested and how all of the tiles form an electrical circuit,\u201d Mandrup said. \u201cThe whole system is very sensitive to irregularities. So once we found a way to give the tile color, we then worked on modulating the fa\u00e7ade on Revit to identify the precise dimensions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Large cranes were used to attach each solar component. <\/i><\/p>\n

As a result of time constraints, the solar panels were only mounted onto the school after the structural fa\u00e7ades were completed. Fortunately, the small, uniform nature of the solar components allowed for a very quick and flexible installation process. The contractors used large cranes to attach each piece, moving around the school as they were finishing the interior. “It was a very flexible skin to mount on; you could even start in one end, and then jump to another,” Mandrup said.<\/p>\n

Ever since its completion, the school has been incredibly well-received by the students, as it allows for unique and exciting learning environment that completely alters the status quo. It is a model that could be replicated, time and time again. Not only will these architectural components reduce the building\u2019s energy consumption, but it will also serve a larger purpose of educating a new generation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe school is used as a visual dashboard of real-time energy usage,” said Mandrup. “The building\u2019s daily performance numbers show up on LCD screens throughout the interior of the school. These numbers are used in the children\u2019s math classes, which allows even the youngest students to participate in a discussion on environmental issues. It has a pedagogical impact. It shows how we can really change the future if we are able to use solar cells as an integrated part of both buildings and education.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked what he wants to witness in the future of building-integrated photovoltaics, Mandrup said that he hopes “we can create a new aesthetic of solar cells that moves away from the dreariness that architects often associate with them. With this project, we broke through a barrier, and realized that solar cells can be an extremely beautiful and colorful building component. We also showed that solar panels can go not only on the roof, but also all over the sides of a building. We think this project is a big page turner.\u201d<\/p>\n
