Abstract

A system and method for personal energy-related changes payback evaluation with the aid of a digital computer are provided. An overall thermal performance of a building is estimated. One or more proposed replacements for existing equipment associated with an individual associated with the building is received. An annual electric consumption associated with the existing equipment is determined. The consumption associated the existing equipment is converted into a time series that includes a plurality of values that are each associated with a time interval. Renewable energy production data associated with the building is obtained. The time series is combined with the photovoltaic production data to obtain time series net consumption data. A cost associated with the time series net consumption data is determined. A payback associated with replacing the existing equipment is estimated using the cost.
