The Importance of the Solar Photovoltaic System in Warehouses

Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyse the importance of the solar photovoltaic system in warehouses. In order to attain the research main aim, this study takes a post positivism ontological approach with a qualitative design using a case study strategy that based on four selected companies, they are Fujian Heyday Industrial Corporation, Ningde Amperex Technology Limited, Chatterley Park Distribution Centre, and Distribution centre of Tesco in USA. In which, the interview has been organised for both Fujian Heyday Industrial Corporation and Ningde Amperex Technology Limited during the research. To clarify the research findings, the solar projects provided in four companies have been classified according to two basic designs of solar photovoltaic system: Building-Applied Photovoltaic (BAPV) and Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV). The main findings show that there are varieties of advantages of applying a solar photovoltaic system in the warehouses. In addition to be a power supplier of the warehouse and the entire company, for example, solar photovoltaic project can mainly help the warehouse as well as the whole company in reducing electrical budgets, releasing less greenhouse gases to the air, and protecting the warehouses
