Development of Integrated Energy and Organic Waste Treatment Model for Rooftop Solar Greenhouse and Grocery Store in a Smart Community

S2E Technologies is a consulting company leading the design and implementation of two Smart communities, to be located in London and Guelph, Ontario. The aim of this research collaboration is to assist S2E with the modeling, design, and analysis of rooftop solar greenhouses integrated with grocery stores, anaerobic digesters and livestock barns. The analysis will consider advanced energy design measures capable of reducing energy demand and generating renewable energy on-site, such as from solar and biomass resources. The research will generate new knowledge and a methodology for modeling and design of rooftop greenhouses.
