[Equest-users] PV Panels

[Paul Fitzgerald]

Dear All

I am a new user of eQuest attempting to compare the advantages of installing PV panels on residential properties.

I have completed a simple model in the schematic design wizard and then copied the files into another project so as to add PV panels in the detailed mode. However, after adding the PV panels and electric generator from the eQuest library, according to the method at energymodels.com, I have noted that my electricity consumption actually increases slightly when I simulate and compare results. Can somebody please tell me where I am going wrong?

Files attached. Many thanks in advance.

Regards

Paul Fitzgerald
