TL;DR
With a view towards creating an operationally zero energy house, an optimisation case with a very low space energy requirement is selected and a photovoltaic system is sized to cover the remaining household electricity consumption over the course of a year.

This paper couples a population-based optimisation algorithm (a genetic algorithm) to a dynamic thermal model with the idea of identifying large numbers of distinctly different low-energy designs, then presenting these designs in the form of a visual summary for judgement as to potential use.
