# SITER Solar Project - Agent Documentation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This document provides technical reference for AI agents working on this project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Host System: Git and Docker ONLY
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**All work must be done inside Docker containers.** The host system is ONLY for:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Git operations** - commit, push, pull, branch, etc.
|
||||||
|
2. **Docker operations** - build, run, exec, etc.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Never run code, tests, or other tools directly on the host system.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Development Workflow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Build Docker image:**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
docker build -f Dockerfile.test -t siter-solar-test .
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **Run tests inside Docker:**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
docker run --rm siter-solar-test
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. **Run analysis inside Docker:**
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
docker run --rm -e NREL_API_KEY=your_key siter-solar-test /app/solar-analysis/siter-solar-analysis.sh --scenarios
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. **Make atomic commits** using conventional commit format:
|
||||||
|
- `feat:` - New feature
|
||||||
|
- `fix:` - Bug fix
|
||||||
|
- `docs:` - Documentation only
|
||||||
|
- `test:` - Adding/updating tests
|
||||||
|
- `refactor:` - Code refactoring
|
||||||
|
- `chore:` - Maintenance tasks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Code/Docs/Tests Synchronization
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Code, documentation, and tests MUST be kept in sync at all times.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- When changing code, update tests and documentation in the same commit
|
||||||
|
- When changing documentation, verify code still matches
|
||||||
|
- When changing tests, ensure code passes new tests
|
||||||
|
- Pre-commit hooks enforce this synchronization
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Privacy Requirements
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**CRITICAL: This is a public repository. All private data must be removed.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### What MUST NOT be committed:
|
||||||
|
- Real addresses or locations (use "SITER" as placeholder)
|
||||||
|
- Account numbers, contract IDs, or meter numbers
|
||||||
|
- The `base-bill/` directory (contains personal billing data)
|
||||||
|
- `.env` file (contains real coordinates and API keys)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### What should be committed:
|
||||||
|
- `.env.example` - Template with placeholder values
|
||||||
|
- All code and documentation with "SITER" as location identifier
|
||||||
|
- SVG images and analysis scripts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Location Data:
|
||||||
|
- Use configurable environment variables: `SITER_LAT`, `SITER_LON`
|
||||||
|
- Default to central Texas coordinates (30.44, -97.62)
|
||||||
|
- Never commit specific addresses
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

## Running NREL Analysis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Using Bash Script (Recommended)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Inside Docker:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Basic analysis
|
||||||
|
./siter-solar-analysis.sh
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# With custom API key
|
||||||
|
./siter-solar-analysis.sh -k YOUR_API_KEY
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Compare system sizes
|
||||||
|
./siter-solar-analysis.sh --scenarios
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# JSON output
|
||||||
|
./siter-solar-analysis.sh --json
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Custom configuration
|
||||||
|
./siter-solar-analysis.sh -p 20 -w 400 --lat 30.5 --lon -97.7
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Python Scripts (DEPRECATED)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Python scripts are kept for reference only. Use the bash script instead.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Key Parameters
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Parameter | Value | Notes |
|
||||||
|
|-----------|-------|-------|
|
||||||
|
| System Capacity | 4.0 kW DC | 16 × 250W panels |
|
||||||
|
| Array Type | Fixed Open Rack | Ground mount |
|
||||||
|
| Tilt | 30° | Optimal for latitude |
|
||||||
|
| Azimuth | 180° | South-facing |
|
||||||
|
| Losses | 14% (default) | Can optimize to 8% |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Base Power Contract Details
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Energy Rate:** $0.085/kWh (fixed through Oct 2028)
|
||||||
|
- **Solar Buyback:** $0.04/kWh (credits apply to entire bill)
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## ROI Calculation Method
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Annual production from NREL PVWatts (kWh/year)
|
||||||
|
2. Self-consumption: 60% × production × $0.085/kWh
|
||||||
|
3. Grid export: 40% × production × $0.04/kWh
|
||||||
|
4. Total annual value = self-consumption + export
|
||||||
|
5. Payback = Total investment / annual value
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Testing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Run tests inside Docker:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
docker build -f Dockerfile.test -t siter-solar-test .
|
||||||
|
docker run --rm siter-solar-test
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Updating the Analysis

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Modify `siter-solar-analysis.sh` as needed
|
||||||
|
2. Update tests in `tests/siter-solar-analysis.bats`
|
||||||
|
3. Run tests to verify changes
|
||||||
|
4. Update `v2-siter-solar-plan.md` with new estimates
|
||||||
|
5. Commit all changes together in atomic commit

## Key Parameters
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Parameter | Value | Notes |
|
||||||
|
|-----------|-------|-------|
|
||||||
|
| System Capacity | 4.0 kW DC | 16 × 250W panels |
|
||||||
|
| Array Type | Fixed Open Rack | Ground mount |
|
||||||
|
| Tilt | 30° | Optimal for latitude |
|
||||||
|
| Azimuth | 180° | South-facing |
|
||||||
|
| Losses | 14% (default) | Can optimize to 8% |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Financial Model
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The analysis uses the following assumptions:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Self-consumption:** 60% of production (avoids $0.085/kWh)
|
||||||
|
- **Grid export:** 40% of production (credits $0.04/kWh)
|
||||||
|
- **Base Power contract:** Fixed rate through Oct 2028
|
||||||
|
- **Solar buyback:** Credits apply to entire bill
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### ROI Calculation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Annual production from NREL PVWatts (kWh/year)
|
||||||
|
2. Self-consumption value: 60% × production × $0.085/kWh
|
||||||
|
3. Export value: 40% × production × $0.04/kWh
|
||||||
|
4. Total annual value = self-consumption + export
|
||||||
|
5. Payback = Total investment / annual value
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## NREL API

# SITER Solar Installation Project
|
||||||
|
## 2026 Renewable Energy Initiative - v2 Analysis
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Executive Summary
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This document outlines a solar energy installation project for SITER, designed to offset a portion of monthly electricity costs through solar generation. The system will utilize 16 solar panels across 8 custom-built ground-mount racks, paired with a Sol-Ark 5K hybrid inverter that integrates with the existing Base Power battery backup system.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Total Project Investment:** $4,100.00
|
||||||
|
**Estimated ROI Period:** 9.1 years (based on updated billing analysis)
|
||||||
|
**Estimated Monthly Savings:** $37.61 (14.2% bill offset)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Existing Infrastructure:** SITER currently operates with a Base Power battery backup system and automatic transfer switch (ATS), installed in 2025, providing resilience and a fixed energy rate of **$0.085/kWh** through a 3-year contract (Oct 2025 - Oct 2028).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Updated Billing Data (15 months):** Average monthly consumption of 1,885 kWh (~22,600 kWh/year) at average effective rate of $0.140/kWh.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**NREL PVWatts Analysis:** Based on location data for SITER, a 16-panel system (4.0 kW DC with 250W panels) is projected to produce ~6,000 kWh/year, offsetting approximately 14% of current consumption.

## Project Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Objectives
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Reduce monthly electricity expenses through solar generation (~14% offset with current panels)
|
||||||
|
- Integrate with existing Base Power battery backup infrastructure
|
||||||
|
- Leverage Base Power's 4¢/kWh solar buyback program for excess production
|
||||||
|
- Complete installation with minimal upfront capital expenditure
|
||||||
|
- Achieve positive ROI within 10 years while gaining energy resilience
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Scope
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Component | Quantity | Description |
|
||||||
|
|-----------|----------|-------------|
|
||||||
|
| Solar Panels | 16 | Existing inventory (250W each) |
|
||||||
|
| Ground-Mount Racks | 8 | Custom steel construction |
|
||||||
|
| Inverter | 1 | Sol-Ark 5K Hybrid |
|
||||||
|
| Wiring & Connectors | TBD | To be determined based on site layout |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Current Status
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Phase:** Initial procurement and rack construction
|
||||||
|
- **Spend to Date:** $360.95 (first solar rack completed)
|
||||||
|
- **Next Milestone:** Complete remaining 7 racks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Existing Infrastructure
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
SITER has the following energy infrastructure already in place:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Component | Details | Install Date |
|
||||||
|
|-----------|---------|--------------|
|
||||||
|
| Base Power Battery System | Battery backup with automatic transfer switch | 2024 |
|
||||||
|
| Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) | Seamless grid/battery switching | 2024 |
|
||||||
|
| Base Power Contract | 3-year fixed rate at $0.085/kWh | 2025-2028 |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Site Base Load:** ~1,885 kWh/month (15-month average)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This existing infrastructure significantly de-risks the solar project:
|
||||||
|
- ATS already installed for grid switching
|
||||||
|
- Battery backup provides load smoothing and outage protection
|
||||||
|
- Fixed-rate contract provides predictable baseline costs
|
||||||
|

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Feature | Details |
|
||||||
|
|---------|--------|
|
||||||
|
| Buyback Rate | 4¢/kWh for all excess solar production |
|
||||||
|
| Credit Application | Applies to **entire bill** (not just energy charge) |
|
||||||
|
| Negative Balance | Rolls over to following month |
|
||||||
|
| Solar Tracking | Shown on monthly bill in "Solar Credits" section |
|
||||||
|

|
**image-3-placeholder**
|

|
|
||||||
|
### Assumptions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- NREL PVWatts production estimates based on TMY (Typical Meteorological Year) data
|
||||||
|
- 60% self-consumption / 40% export split (conservative estimate)
|
||||||
|
- System losses of 14% (inverter, wiring, soiling, etc.)
|
||||||
|
- Electricity rates remain constant (conservative - rates typically increase 2-3% annually)
|
||||||
|
- No major maintenance required in first 10 years
|
||||||
|
- Base Power contract at $0.085/kWh remains in effect through Oct 2028
|
||||||
|
- Base Power solar buyback at $0.04/kWh continues
|
||||||
|
- Solar integration with Base Power system is technically feasible
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Key Considerations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Production vs. Consumption Gap:**
|
||||||
|
- Current consumption: ~22,600 kWh/year
|
||||||
|
- Solar production: ~6,000 kWh/year
|
||||||
|
- Gap: ~16,600 kWh/year (73% still from grid/Base Power)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Options to Improve Economics:**
|
||||||
|
1. Upgrade to higher-wattage panels (400W+ panels reduce payback to ~6 years)
|
||||||
|
2. Expand system size (additional panels/racks)
|
||||||
|
3. Reduce consumption through efficiency measures
|
||||||
|
4. Add more panels when costs decrease
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Value Adds Not Quantified
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Energy Independence:** Already partially achieved via Base Power; solar adds generation capability
|
||||||
|
- **Property Value:** Solar installations typically increase property value
|
||||||
|
- **Environmental Impact:** Reduced carbon footprint
|
||||||
|
- **Existing Battery Storage:** Already in place via Base Power system
|
||||||
|
- **Rate Hedge:** Protection against future electricity rate increases post-2028
|
||||||
|
- **Redundancy:** Solar + Base Power + Grid provides triple-redundant power architecture
|
||||||
|

## Recommendations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Immediate Actions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Approve Budget:** Authorize $4,100 project expenditure
|
||||||
|
2. **Order Inverter:** Confirm Sol-Ark 5K availability and place order
|
||||||
|
3. **Complete Site Survey:** Determine exact wiring requirements and costs
|
||||||
|
4. **Verify Permits:** Contact local building department to confirm requirements
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Panel Upgrade Consideration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Based on the updated analysis, upgrading from 250W to 400W panels would:
|
||||||
|
- Increase production from 6,004 to 9,606 kWh/year (+60%)
|
||||||
|
- Increase monthly savings from $33.52 to $53.63
|
||||||
|
- Reduce payback from 10.2 years to 6.4 years
|
||||||
|
- Increase bill offset from 12.7% to 20.3%
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Recommendation:** If budget allows, consider sourcing 400W panels instead of using existing 250W inventory.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Project Execution
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Continue rack construction using proven design from Rack #1
|
||||||
|
2. Procure all remaining materials in single order for cost efficiency
|
||||||
|
3. Consider hiring licensed electrician for final grid connection
|
||||||
|
4. Document entire process for future reference/expansion
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Future Considerations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Base Power Contract Renewal (2028):** Evaluate contract terms vs. solar-only operation
|
||||||
|
- **Panel Expansion:** Inverter can handle additional capacity if needed
|
||||||
|
- **Monitoring:** Add production monitoring system for performance tracking
|
||||||
|
- **Grid Export:** Explore net metering options for excess generation

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Contract Considerations:**
|
||||||
|
- Review Base Power contract for solar integration provisions

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Base Power Solar Economics
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Consumption Offset vs. Export Credit:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Scenario | Rate | Benefit |
|
||||||
|
|----------|------|--------|
|
||||||
|
| Solar consumed on-site | $0.085/kWh avoided | Higher value - reduces energy charge |
|
||||||
|
| Solar exported to grid | $0.04/kWh credit | Lower value - but credits apply to entire bill |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Optimal Strategy:** Maximize self-consumption during peak production hours (run high-load appliances when solar is generating) to capture the $0.085/kWh value rather than exporting at $0.04/kWh.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Key Advantage:** Unlike many providers that only credit against energy charges, Base applies solar credits to the **entire bill** including delivery fees, taxes, and the $10/month subscription fee.
