WUFI

Our solar PV consultant would like to see hourly kWh use or load shape data to help him size the system for peak loads. Is it possible to generate this data from the energy model?

Thanks for any help!

yes, you can do a dynamic thermal or hygrothermal simulation calculating the hourly indoor climate and the hourly heating, or cooling demand to keep the indoor climate in the design conditions.
Therefore you have to switch the scope in the top tool bar to WUFI plus. Please find some hints and information for that in the WUFI Passive manual (you can open it with the software in the top tool bar, help-menu) in chapter 9 and also in WUFI Plus manual. Building geometry, sturctures and so on are transferd from the static monthly calculation, but you need some additional input, like the hourly climate data, maybe from database, or hourly inner loads and ventilation.
