This project of Google will help you in finding out whether your sunroof is ready for solar or not. Thanks to the big pushes by Elon Musk to improve the state of renewable energy through efforts to build a better battery and bring panels to more houses by way of Solar City. Americans may want solar, but Google has noticed an influx of queries into its search engine of people asking whether their home is ready for solar or not.
So, an engineer at google decided to create an information tool to help make the decision easier, without consulting a number of sources. It’s called Project Sunroof and it lays out the world’s roofs in terms of solar, mapping out how much sun and shade hit homes on any given day. Developers have used the information provided by the google maps in calculating the angles, weather, and obstructions to help answer consumers’ most basic question: is my home right for solar panels?
The project has been rolled out in three cities: Boston, MA, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Fresno, CA. he map even provides cost estimates based on monthly electric bills and what kinds of savings people could expect over a 20-year period, as well as solar providers in the area. It’s an all-in-one solution.
It’s a very innovative project by Google. So what do you think about it??
