Özet:
In the current century, climate change, air pollution, and the depletion of energy resources are big threats to our society, especially in urban areas. It is an inevitable fact that we need to develop the green building concept and produce innovative solutions in our quest to design structures that are compatible with nature, sustainable, environmentally friendly, aesthetic and use natural resources efficiently. Roofs are the most efficient and promising building surfaces for the combination of photovoltaic panel applications and green roofs considering their locations and inclination angles. This research focuses on how carbon emission can be reduced via both green roofs and solar energy while producing electricity in OSTIM, one of Turkey's most prominent industrial zones located in the capital. The longterm detailed analysis of photovoltaic-green roof application in terms of economics and carbon emission is discussed. Although the rooftop option of a combination of solar panels and a green roof design costs higher than a standard photovoltaic system, it opens up new prospects for urban lighting in smart cities with exciting aesthetic effects. This combination of two sustainable features can become a model of green technology and opens up a wide range of research applications. ? 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC.
