Residential building with rooftop solar PV system, battery storage and electric vehicle charging: environmental impact and energy matching assessments for a multi-family house in a Swedish city

Abstract

In this paper, environmental impact and energy matching assessments for a residential building with a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) system, battery energy storage system (BESS) and electric vehicles (EV) charging load are conducted. This paper studies a real multi-family house with a rooftop PV system in a city located on the west-coast of Sweden, as a case study. The environmental impact parameter assessed in this study is CO2 equivalent (CO2-eq) emissions. It should be noted that the CO2-eq emission assessment takes into account the whole life cycle, not only the operational processes. The assessments consider both the household and transport energy demands for the building's residents.
