Model of residential photvoltaic-battery system performance and economics in the U.S.

This MATLAB script and input csv files contain a model to predict the performance and economics of residential photovoltaic-battery systems. A description of the model is provided in the corresponding peer-reviewed publication (currently under review and to be added here with a revision upon publication). All input files must be placed in the same working directory as the MATLAB script for the model to run. This analysis is performed for the center of population of each state in the U.S (see Related Links). The input solar data for each location was obtained from the National Solar Radiation Database (see Related Links). The input load data for each location was obtained from the U.S. Department of Energy's Building America B10 Benchmark dataset (see Related Links). Current electricity prices were obtained from the Energy Information Administration's State Electricity Profiles, and future electricity prices were forecasted based on the annual percent change in the Annual Energy Outlook report's reference case predictions for the corresponding census division (see Related Links). A disclaimer for use of the TMY3 data is included in the "TMY3 Data" folder and may also be found at: https://www.nrel.gov/disclaimer.html A disclaimer for use of the load data is included in the "Load Data" folder and may also be found at: https://openei.org/wiki/OpenEI:General_disclaimer

本MATLAB脚本与输入CSV文件包含用于预测户用光伏-储能系统性能与经济性的模型。该模型的详细说明已在对应同行评议期刊论文中呈现（目前该论文尚在审稿阶段，正式刊发后将更新至此处）。所有输入文件需与本MATLAB脚本置于同一工作目录下，方可正常运行模型。本分析针对美国各州的人口中心区域展开（详见相关链接）。各区域的输入太阳能数据源自国家太阳能辐射数据库（National Solar Radiation Database，详见相关链接）。各区域的输入负荷数据源自美国能源部（U.S. Department of Energy）的Building America B10基准数据集（Building America B10 Benchmark dataset，详见相关链接）。当前电价数据源自美国能源信息署（Energy Information Administration）的《各州电力概况》报告；未来电价则基于对应人口普查分区的《年度能源展望》（Annual Energy Outlook）报告基准情景预测值的年度百分比变化进行推演（详见相关链接）。TMY3数据的使用免责声明已收录于"TMY3 Data"文件夹中，亦可通过以下链接查阅：https://www.nrel.gov/disclaimer.html。负荷数据的使用免责声明已收录于"Load Data"文件夹中，亦可通过以下链接查阅：https://openei.org/wiki/OpenEI:General_disclaimer
