This will not create any new geometry, but will just make PV objects out of existing shading geometry. Optionally a cost can be added for the PV. This measure will add PV objects for all site, building, or zone shading surfaces. Site and Building surfaces exist in both OpenStudio and EnergyPlus. Space shading surfaces in OpenStudio are translated to zone shading surfaces in EnergyPlus. The necessary PV objects will be added for each surface, as well as a number of shared PV resources. A number of arguments will expose various PV settings. The recurring cost objects added are not directly associated with the PV objects. If the PV objects are removed the cost will remain. shading_type Choose the Type of Shading Surfaces to add PV to Choice true false Building Shading Site Shading Site Shading Building Shading Building Shading Space/Zone Shading Space/Zone Shading fraction_surfacearea_with_pv Fraction of Included Surface Area with PV Double true false 0.5 value_for_cell_efficiency Fractional Value for Cell Efficiency Double true false 0.12 material_cost Material and Installation Costs for the PV Double $ true false 0 expected_life Expected Life Integer whole years true false 20 om_cost O & M Costs for the PV.
