Electrification Model Inputs for Carbon Free Housing and Dining at UCSB

General Information
Data Package:
Local Identifier:edi.1419.1
Title:Electrification Model Inputs for Carbon Free Housing and Dining at UCSB
Alternate Identifier:DOI PLACE HOLDER
Abstract:

All of *.csv files located in this folder were used in the final script of Watt's Up!'s group project model. This project took place during the '22-'23 school years.

Several *.csv files were not included in this data package due to confidentiality agreements with the client of our group project. Therefore, our model is lacking certain inputs required for operation.

To see this model, please request access to the repository at:

https://github.com/drewtandersen/Watts-Up

There you will find these identical files and the necessary tools to run the model script in RStudio.

Files are named in relation to their building of interest:

DLG - De La Guerra Dining Commons

WC - West Campus Apartments

San Miguel - San Miguel Residence Hall
