This case study illustrates how integrating solar PV can improve the business case for retrofitting a low-rise multi-unit residential building (MURB) in B.
The feasibility of installing solar energy systems in historic buildings is a significant finding, which is demonstrated by the case study of St. Nicholas Church. This integration shows that renewable energy solutions can be implemented in heritage sites with sensitivity and respect for their historical significance.
The measured and simulated energy consumption of the house after retrofit are compared. The energy consumption of space heating and cooling is simulated as 9556 kWh and the actual energy consumption is 9100.85 kWh.
Compared with the energy consumption before retrofit as depicted in Fig. 4, the highest monthly energy consumption reduces from 4500 kWh to less than 2500 kWh. The lowest value reduces to less than 500 kWh. So, the retrofit solution results in significant energy savings. Fig. 13.
The framework starts with the estimation of the maximum available solar resource in local area and adopts two criteria (1) maximum potential supported thermal load and (2) simulated energy consumption to achieve the design objective that realizes the balance energy production and energy consumption of building energy systems.

Throughout this Perspective paper, we report and review recent scientific advances in the field of negative electrode materials used for Na-ion batteries.
This paper sheds light on negative electrode materials for Na-ion batteries: carbonaceous materials, oxides/phosphates (as sodium insertion materials), sodium alloy/compounds and so on. These electrode materials have different reaction mechanisms for electrochemical sodiation/desodiation processes.
With the aforementioned approach, the performance of sodium metal batteries using a controlled amount of sodium metal anode is demonstrated. The system showcases a capacity retention of 91.84% after 500 cycles at 2C current rate. Furthermore, it exhibits an 86 mA h g−1 discharge capacity at a high rate of 45C.
The anode/electrolyte interface behavior, and by extension, the overall cell performance of sodium-ion batteries is determined by a complex interaction of processes that occur at all components of the electrochemical cell across a wide range of size- and timescales.
Careful development and optimization of negative electrode (anode) materials for Na-ion batteries (SIBs) are essential, for their widespread applications requiring a long-term cycling stability.
Using dense electroplated sodium metal, the resulting full cell exhibits remarkable performance: 91.84% capacity retention after 500 cycles at a 2C-rate and an 86 mA h g−1 discharge capacity at a 45C-rate. Uniaxial pressure is employed to control sodium metal deposition, ensuring high coulombic efficiencies.

This study aims to estimate China's solar PV power generation potential by following three main steps: suitable sites selection, theoretical PV power generation and total cost of the system.
This study used a PV power generation potential assessment system based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods to investigate the PV power generation potential in China.
Among them, 365GW of wind power and 393GW of solar power. In 2022, China's new PV installation was 87.41GW(AC), up 59.3% year-on-year. Among them, utility PV installed 36.3GW, up 41.8% year-on-year while distributed PV installed 51.1GW, up 74.5% year-on-year.
The total capacity potential of China in 2015 is 78.46 TW, while the installed capacity in operation is only 43.18 GWh in the same period. The installed capacity of most provinces in China accounts for no more than 1% of the capacity potential, especially in the PV potential-rich areas.
Similarly, some researchers have previously estimated China's solar PV potential. Yu et al. (2023) utilized multi-criteria decision mode and random forest algorithm to calculate China's large-scale and distributed solar PV power generation potentials in prefecture-level cities.
By then, wind and PV power installations will exceed coal power, with an installed capacity of 30-40%, becoming the first major power source. The share of wind and PV power generation will reach 17-25%. China's new PV installations are forecast to reach 150-180GW in 2023.

The average value of the solar radiation is 3.3 while the predicted value is 3.7 in February and thus we may distinguish the changes in solar radiation between different months. To estimate solar energy potential from alternative technologies, we have to multiply the sunny hours with the solar energy conversion rate.
The economic value of a solar energy generating facility depends on the availability of the solar resource. The so lar radiation, and to a lesser extent, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, and wind speed determine the timing and quantity of energy the facility generates.
The economic analysis is consistent with the Bank's “Guidelines for Economic Analysis - Power Sector Investment Projects and Social Value of Carbon in Project Appraisal,” 2014. 2. The economic feasibility of the proposed project is assessed using a standard cost-benefit analysis.
As shown in Figure B-1, the first step in the process is to predict the performance of the PV system based on historical weather data using a model that has been agreed to by the parties. The model must be defined in terms of the model inputs, calculation process, and how the measured meteorological data will be input into the model.
