◦ The Problem
Solar panels long payback period
Payback period is the number of years it will take for the solar panels to essentially "pay for themselves" through savings.
It takes an average of 8 to 9 years for individuals to see positive returns on their solar energy investment.
Design constraint
The class requires to design a physical product for this project.
How might we help solar panel owners shorten the payback period?
◦ Ideation Hypotheiss
Energy consumption behavior
Behavior in energy consumption can be optimized by informing users about their energy consumption behaviors and providing recommendations for them to apply.
Smart outlets energy automation
I discovered the smart outlet system can optimize the energy use based on applied insights and recommendations, leading to increased energy savings stored in the battery or resulting in additional utility credits reflected on the bill.
