Analysis and Design of Residential Load Centers. Final Report. Volume 1. Technical Volume
The results are presented of a study on Residential Load Centers (RLC) which include photovoltaic arrays for electrical power generation. Twelve specific climatic regions across the United States were used. Current and future load centers were classified, and the electrical and space conditioning loads were developed. Economic evaluations and cost scenarios are projected for the mid-1980's. The five load center types selected for this study are single family detached homes, townhouses, garden apartments, housing for the elderly, and mobile homes. The study concludes that (1) Limited land availability and cost dictate roof mounted arrays for RLC's; (2) Condominium type ownership of the array seems most viable; (3) RLC with buildings of more than three stories complicates the architecture; (4) Systems without batteries are preferred; and (5) Combined PV/thermal collector systems must show improved performance to be competitive with separate PV and thermal systems for residential load centers.
