"Optimal planning of municipal-scale distributed rooftop photovoltaic s" by Haoshan Ren, Zhenjun Ma et al.
Deployment planning of distributed rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems remains a critical challenge for high-density cities, due to complex shading effects and diversified rooftop availabilities. Furthermore, such planning for large-scale systems could be extremely complex due to high dimensionality caused by the enormous number of buildings. To tackle the challenge, this study proposed an optimal planning strategy for municipal-scale distributed rooftop PV systems in high-density cities. The optimization problem was solved by integer learning programming, based on high-accuracy solar energy pot...
