Simulating energy consumption with rooftop PV + battery

Hi there,

I am searching for a component to add a rooftop PV with an integrated battery in Honeybee and Dragonfly. I found: DF Ground Photovoltaic, which is not the case I am looking for. I noticed that OpenStudio has a measure: Add Rooftop PV, but it does not have a battery integrated with it.

I was wondering whether there exists a way to add PV+ battery to energy simulation in DR/HB?

Thanks very much in advance.

Sincerely,
Behnam

I was wondering whether there is any tutorial, documents, etc. showing a simple example how to use these components?

Dear Behnam,

I am currently looking for a tutorial or script that integrates both PV and battery systems. I was wondering if you were able to solve your issue related to this topic. If so, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share any insights or resources that might be helpful.

Looking forward to your response.

Best,
Behrooz
