Research output: NREL › Technical Report

Abstract

The report outlines the short-term field testing used by Building America staff and includes a report on the results of an example test of a PV system with battery storage on a home in Tucson, Arizona. This report is not intended as a general recommended test procedure for wide distribution. It is intended to document current practices in Building America to inform program stakeholders andstimulate further discussion. Building America staff intend to apply this procedure until relevant standards for testing PV modules are completed.
