How should I go about incorporating BES into a BEopt 2.8 model accurately?
I am trying to find the best way to incorporate BES into my BEopt 2.8 model. I know that the beta 3.0.1 version has BES modeling capabilities, but I am adding new scenarios to an older model and transferring everything over would be time consuming and (because of the SEER2/HSPF2 update) wouldn't be a 1:1 comparison w/ the older outputs.
For context, I have two systems to consider (via FSEC) -
Large Home (1,601 sq. ft. or larger)
- 2.5 Kw Photovoltaic Array
- 6 kWh of LiFePo4 battery storage
Small Home (1,600 sq. ft. or smaller)
- 1.2 Kw Photovoltaic Array
- 3 kWh of LiFePo4 battery storage
If there isn't a way in 2.8, how can accurate parallels be drawn between 2.8 and 3.0.1 outputs?
