Hello, I am a student and need to learn EnergyPlus. Are there any EnergyPlus Webinars or online video clips related to photovoltaic (PV) and battery simulation models as Learning Resources? Also, I am looking for Passive house design models in EnergyPlus. How can I access those video clip resources? With Thanks, Saeed

Checkout the ShopWithPVandBattery.idf example file that comes with EnergyPlus.

Highlights: low energy building with photovoltaic roof and electrical storage
Demonstrate the used of battery model for electrical storage
Demonstrates different inverters on different arrays.
Fairly comprehensive model with full HVAC, service water heating, etc.

I'm not aware of any video clips/webinars about PV/Batteries/Passivhaus in EnergyPlus.
