As Canada continues its energy transition, the integration of renewable energy resources into various sectors is essential. In the residential construction sector, solar photovoltaic (PV) panels, PV with battery energy storage systems (BESS), or BESSs offer homeowners and grid operators multiple benefits.
JLR’s Joan Haysom, P.Eng., Ph.D., and Jarrett Carriere, P.Eng., M.A.Sc., C.E.M authored a research report proposing a framework to develop practical guidelines, within the scope of Canadian regulations, codes, and standards, for designing PV, PV with BESS, or BESSs for use in the new built residential sector.
