ADQUIO ANALYTICS · USE CASES
A residential community’s energy serves more than its homes: lifts, pumps, parking and electric vehicle charging are part of the same picture.
This article presents a use case with simulated data. The main image is a generated illustration; the screenshots show the Adquio Analytics interface.
The scenario: Solar Residential Community
This example brings together 40 homes and 100 residents across 3,800 m², with 60 parking spaces. Shared photovoltaics and storage are analysed alongside eight EV chargers and communal services.
The analysis helps explore the modelled allocation of solar energy and the coincidence of charging and building demand. It is an operational example, rather than an individual utility settlement.
Questions this example helps answer
Visualisations become useful when they support a specific decision. This example helps explore the following questions:
How is solar energy allocated in the scenario?
When does charging coincide with communal demand?
How do homes and shared equipment behave over time?
Technical reference for the example
These values define the reference scenario. They are simulation parameters, not a specification for a verified customer installation.
| Parameter | Model reference |
|---|---|
| Reference floor area | 3800 m² |
| Team | 1 people |
| Photovoltaics | 100 × 400 W modules = 40 kWp |
| Inverters | 3 × 15 kW |
| Nominal battery capacity | 60 kWh |
| Nominal storage voltage | 51.2 V |
| State-of-charge window | 20–90% |
| Storage efficiency | 96% in each direction |
| Simulator update interval | 60 seconds |
| Weather update interval | 60 minutes |
| Homes and residents | 40 homes · 100 residents |
| Parking and lifts | 60 spaces · 2 × 4.5 kW lifts |
| EV charging | 8 × 7.4 kW chargers · 12 electric vehicles |
| Combined charging limit | 24 kW |
| Solar allocation to homes | 85% in the model |
| Reference water demand | 120 l per resident per day |
The dashboards, explained
Each view answers a different question. Select a thumbnail to open a large image; use the viewer to move to the next dashboard or switch to full screen.
Energy overview
Explore collective demand, solar supply, grid import and storage.
How to read it. The scenario illustrates operational analysis, not legal allocation or individual billing.
Homes and solar allocation
Relate residents present and charging activity to the community’s electricity demand.
How to read it. Use the joint picture to study how shared loads coincide; the 85% allocation is a model parameter.
EV charging and shared services
Follow charging vehicles, EV demand and the garage carbon monoxide variable.
How to read it. Consider charging schedules alongside the configured combined limit; environmental readings remain simulated.
These views were prepared in an isolated Analytics instance by running the supplied simulator. No connections or writes to real equipment were made. They are not recorded historical data from an installation.
From example to your installation
The same approach can be adapted to the variables and equipment available in your project. Start with the decision to support, then choose the appropriate measurements, units, periods and visualisations.
DataSource collects and prepares the data, and Adquio Analytics presents it in dashboards. Review measurement coverage and keep the same boundary when comparing days, areas or equipment.
The screenshots illustrate analytical possibilities. They do not verify savings, operational results or automatic control of equipment in this example.
