In Urumqi, Beijing, and Shanghai, the power generation of a rooftop PV system can supply the net load of a 4-storey residential building, which is at an average level. While the rooftop system can only meet the net demand of a 3-storey residential building in Harbin, Chengdu, and Guangzhou.
Our study also reveals that rooftop photovoltaic solar panels significantly alter urban surface energy budgets, near-surface meteorological fields, urban boundary layer dynamics and sea breeze circulations.
It can be concluded that the rooftop PV system can at least meet the net energy demand of low-rise residential buildings. Multi-storey buildings can sometimes achieve net-zero energy consumption through the rooftop PV systems, depending on the local solar irradiation and household demand.
