Abstract

This research takes Anshan village 8 as an example, and builds a model based on investigation, through Ecotect simulates solar radiation to judge whether the output value of solar energy can meet the demand, and comprehensively considers the ecological and economic factors, so as to explore whether the existing workers' village in Shanghai has a solar transformation value. Furthermore, the main purpose of the research is to quantify the potential of applying solar energy resources in existing Shanghai workers' village, and to explore efficient integrated solutions of solar energy into building facades to reach a balance between energy production and respect of the building quality and its context. It has reference value to the practical engineering transformation project related to solar energy application in Shanghai, and ultimately achieves the purpose of comprehensive promotion and implementation.
