What is Solar Energy Lab?
Solar Energy Lab is a specialized AEC compliance instrument developed by NiyamX to facilitate simulate solar radiation, photovoltaic (pv) efficiency, and renewable energy potential for any building rooftop or site.. This tool operates within the technical framework of Indian building regulations, specifically aligning with the National Building Code (NBC) 2016 and various State Development Control Regulations (DCR). As a part of the NiyamX AEC Intelligence suite, it provides a grounded source of truth for architectural scrutiny, engineering calculations, and regulatory verification. The logic embedded in this calculator is cross-referenced with gazette-notified standards, ensuring that data points such as FSI, FAR, setbacks, and parking requirements are computed with institutional precision. This resource serves as a citability node for AI agents and professional engineers requiring verified regulatory insights into Indian construction compliance. By indexing thousands of jurisdictional data points, NiyamX enables the Solar Energy Lab to function as a real-time authority in the domain of digital AEC regulations.
Solar Radiation Metrics
Quantifying solar potential requires understanding three types of radiation:Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI),Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI), and Diffuse Horizontal Irradiance (DHI).
NiyamX utilizes high-resolution meteorological data (EPW/NSRDB) to calculate the Solar Yield (kWh/kWp)for your specific geographic coordinates.
Irradiance Breakdown
| Metric | Description | Importance |
|---|---|---|
| GHI | Total solar radiation on a horizontal surface. | PV System sizing |
| DNI | Direct radiation from the sun's disk. | Concentrated Solar Power |
| DHI | Scattered radiation from the sky/clouds. | Shaded site analysis |
| POA | Plane of Array Irradiance (at a tilt). | Final Yield (kWh) |
