Energy Consumption Rate
The course started with calculating energy and power consumption per function per unit area for out projects. Following this requirement, we made proposals on Sunny Design to help design rooftop solar panels based on this energy requirement. Finally, cost comparisons were made to analyze the proposal with respect to reality
Climate Analysis
Solar panel placement
- Area 1: 68 Pv Panels
- Area 2: 118 Pv Panels
- Area 3: 208 Pv Panels
Energy Yield
The Metabolic Building Systems: The Energy workshop helped us develop our Urban Synthesis project further. This time, we learned even more open-source tools as well as formulas to help us calculate energy consumption, potential energy production and the respective operating costs of such systems in general.
Thanks to the workshop, we now have an even better understanding of how to move forward with our Urban Synthesis project. With this, the idea of how a sustainability-oriented project works has become much clearer to us and we’re looking forward to seeing how our project changes further as we discover and apply increasingly more information and tools.
