Innovative online tool: How to optimize your renewable energy!
Dr. Richard Eckerle from the University of BW Munich presents the RESAT tool for the cost-efficient analysis of renewable energy systems.
Innovative online tool: How to optimize your renewable energy!
Today a milestone in the development of renewable energy systems is celebrated. Dr. Richard Eckerle from the University of the Bundeswehr Munich developed the Renewable Energy Systems Analysis Tool (RESAT). This interactive online tool is designed to facilitate the analysis and cost-optimized design of energy concepts such as wind turbines and photovoltaic systems.
RESAT has set itself the goal of answering central questions about renewable energy supply quickly and interactively. The newly developed RESAT graphic supports users in putting together sustainable energy systems for different levels of self-sufficiency cost-effectively. By presenting alternative system configurations with similar cost-benefit ratios, decision-making is made much easier.
An interactive training video for users
In addition to the graphics tools, RESAT offers a step-by-step training video that explains how to use the tool. The underlying data is based on average values for household load profiles as well as feed-in profiles from PV and wind turbines. Although RESAT was originally designed for students, it has proven to be useful for a wider audience, including citizens, communities and businesses.
The tool is completely free and can be found at www.resat-app.de be retrieved. RESAT currently focuses on the load profiles of private households, but future expansions to other types of consumption are also planned.
Available renewable energy analysis tools
These initiatives are in a broader context supported by various analytical tools established in the industry. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory The Annual Technology Baseline (ATB) includes cost and performance forecasts for various energy technologies, including battery storage and photovoltaics.
Furthermore, this enablesDistributed Generation Market Demand (dGen)Model an analysis of U.S. customer acceptance of various energy sources, including photovoltaics and wind power. These data and models are crucial for making informed decisions in energy planning and policy.
Overall, developments in the area of renewable energy systems are promising. The technologies supported by RESAT and other tools show the potential to create sustainable and economical energy solutions for the future.
