Photovoltaic (PV) systems were chosen as the primary energy source. Strategically located, PV systems improved the building's energy performance by shading surfaces which were exposed to the solar radiation. PV system energy output and realized solar heat gain reduction varied significantly between possible layout configurations. It was critical then, that analysis be carried out to model both the PV system energy generation and the effect of the shading advantage created by the PV system array. Software tools were used to assist in analyzing the various PV system arrangements for both PV system energy generation and building solar heat gain reduction. The results of the software analysis were used to determine the amount of PV energy available to offset the building energy consumption and to determine the energy savings associated with the solar heat gain reduction.
