California, USA · Fresno County and Los Angeles County
Screening and prioritisation
Which large buildings should be studied first for solar-plus-storage resilience?
- Planning question
- Which of a county’s large buildings should be studied first as candidates for solar-plus-storage resilience projects — and on what evidence? A triage question, not an approval.
- Workflow shown
- A county map with a ranked shortlist; a detail view for each ranked building with its criterion scores, a plain-language rationale and flags for missing or filled-in inputs; alternative weightings compared as scenarios; and an evidence pack for each run (browser report and PDF).
- Evidence
- Six criteria from public data — modelled solar yield, community burden (CalEnviroScreen 4.0), wildfire risk (FEMA National Risk Index), whether the building is or is near a critical facility, modelled critical-load backup during a 72-hour outage, and indicative economics — in two runs frozen in June 2026.
- Result
- A Technical Suitability Rank from stated default weights, within each analysed set of buildings: a starting point for engineering review, not a feasibility finding.
- Limits
- Only the largest buildings were scored. No utility network, hosting-capacity or interconnection data was used. The order changes with weights and assumptions. Community-burden values are filled in for Fresno’s top two and all ten top-ranked Los Angeles buildings, so those positions need a data check. Not independently validated.
Buildings screened per county
- 50 of 22,160Fresno County buildings scored · 20 shown in the ranked list
- 700 of 133,900Los Angeles County buildings scored · 670 shown in the ranked list
Eligible = a building footprint of at least 500 m². The largest were scored, chosen by size before any other criterion. Frozen runs of 23 June 2026.
