Document a (realistic but potentially imaginary) scenario and use the simulator to examine under which parameter values, if any, would it be financially sound to install solar panels in that scenario. After how many months would it become profitable? Record your assumptions, steps, and results.
Systematically vary the different parameters to establish how sensitive the results are to variations in the values. Also test varying in the location by repeating the calculations with different data sets.
Report in writing, possibly with tables or figures to represent your findings, what you find to be the key decisions for whether solar panels are a good investment and which of the factors appear to be more marginal in effect.
Examine prices and properties of solar panels available for purchase in your area as well as the costs related to their installation and maintanance. Also, look into what happens in practice if such a system is capable of producing excess energy: what are the costs involved in feeding in into the grid? Would installlng a home battery be a good option? If so, under what circumstances and what would be the costs involved in such a setup?
Report all your findings in writing while citing all of the sources you consult.
Read the scientific study DOI 10.1016/j.eneco.2022.106023 and draft a similar table on how you, intuitively, consider the studied factors to affect your own household consumptions. Think of additional measurable factors that would also be potentially significant for your own scenario.
Document the thought process and its results in writing, clearly citing any additional sources you consult while working on the assignment.
