ESTIMATING GENERATION CAPABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH A BUILDING DESIGN USING DIGITAL REPLICAS

Abstract:

Methods, computer program products, and/or systems are provided that perform the following operations: obtaining initial design data associated with a building; obtaining geolocation data associated with the building; obtaining environmental data associated with a location based on the geolocation data; simulating the building in an environment using one or more digital replica models, wherein the simulating of the building is based, at least in part, on the initial design data, the geolocation data, and the environmental data; and generating estimates for power generation capability associated with the building based in part on the simulation of the building in the environment.
