Solar potential scaling and the urban road network topology

Abstract:
We explore the scaling of cities' solar potentials with their number of buildings and reveal a latent dependence between the solar potential and the length of the corresponding city's road network. This scaling is shown to be valid at the grid and block levels and is attributed to a common street length distribution. Additionally, we compute the buildings' solar potential correlation function and length in order to determine the set of critical exponents typifying the urban solar potential universality class.
