'Electricity produced from photovoltaic systems in apartment buildings and self consumption: Comparison of the situation in various IEA PVPS countries', 46th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC 46). Chicago
This workshop will cover two of our open source modelling tools, with a focus on the User Interface we have just developed and is now open for beta testing. The models are:
1. Solar Apartments (also known as Mike’s model) Can be used to model the electrical and financial flows in apartment buildings with PV (and batteries) installed behind the meter or distributed through embedded networks.
