Learn best practices for evaluating solar energy on a building by creating a simulation to show potential energy created by solar panels. Comparing the potential energy from solar panels with the energy cost per square foot of a similar building, and the cost of solar panels, you can estimate potential payback over time.
After this video, you’ll be able to:
- Set up the simulation for the roof area and additional surface areas.
- Describe potential energy use for a building.
- Evaluate solar energy creation for an area on a site.
- Evaluate solar energy payback.
