2 Renewable vs. Non-Renewable Electrical Generation Renewables: Source Advantages Disadvantages Solar PV No CO2; Needs no Fuel Intermittent no power at night, cloudy day, covered by snow. Need large area, high front cost Wind Hydro Power (#1 renewable) No CO2 Needs no Fuel No CO2; Need no Fuel Available 24/7 Geothermal No CO2, No Fuel, 24/7 GS HP Winter use heat from ground; Summer add heat. Biomass Carbon neutral ; 24/7 2
3 Continued Energy Conservation Renewable -Watt saved does nor need to be generated -Conservation often cheaper -DIA Energy Conservation Initiatives: Escalators; Lighting; HVAC Controls 3
4 Electrical Terms Power is how fast you spend Energy or do Work. Electrical Power is measured in watts (W) 1 kilowatt (kw) = 1,000 W 1 megawatt (MW) = 1,000 kw = 1,000,000 W - Electrical Energy is measured in watt-hours (Wh) - 1 watt-hour is 1 watt of power over a time of one hour - 1 kilowatt-hour (kwh) = 1,000 Wh - 1 megawatt-hour = 1,000 kwh = 1,000,000 Wh - Direct Current (DC) = Like a battery produces - Alternating Current (AC) = Like typical home uses Average home in Colorado uses about 832 kwh AC Electrical Energy per month. (Xcel Energy) 4
5 Solar PV Basics All Photovoltaic (PV) cells produce DC Cells; Modules & Panels Panels joined in Strings ; Strings Array Then what do you do with the DC power? Either charge a battery, Use DC directly, or Use an Inverter to convert the DC to AC. Sometimes a combination of these. Most large PV systems convert DC to AC; like all systems at DIA. Then you can either use the electrical energy on-site or sell it to the electrical grid. (Electric Grid is AC) PV is different than Solar Thermal where the sun heats a fluid to run a generator. 5
6 PV Design Considerations How big? - Solar PV is sized in MW DC nominal power rating ; STC = 25 C, 1000 W/m2 Types of Solar PV Panels: Mono (1)-crystalline Most efficient most expensive Poly (many)-crystalline Less efficient less expensive Non-crystalline (thin film) Least efficient least expensive, and more flexible. New generation multijunction; exotic compounds. Tracking System vs. Fixed Tilt System Tracking follows the sun east to west Tracking is more expensive but more efficient Tracking Systems: Single Axis or Dual Axis. Also how much does land cost? Other design factors: weight of snow and wind forces, soil conditions, geometry or glare. 6
7 Solar Rays Denver International Airport Current PV Installations DIA II DIA III DIA I 7
8 DIA PV Installations -All poly-crystalline panels -Combined, DIA Solar I, II and II produce 13 million kwh per year; -This is about 6% of electricity used by DIA in a year -Also equivalent to about 1,300 typical homes -All DIA Solar Arrays are owned by private companies -Public-Private Partnership -DIA has Ground Lease Agreement and Power Purchase Agreement with Owner -DIA is site host : -Owner Sells Electricity to DIA -DIA use some Electricity on site, and sells excess Electricity to Xcel Energy at current Energy prices 8
9 DIA PV Installations -Owners of the DIA Solar Arrays receive: -Payments for Electrical Energy from DIA -Federal tax benefits -Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) and Rebate Payments from Xcel Energy -Without Tax Benefits and Xcel Payments, these DIA Solar Installations would probably not have been built; -would not be financially attractive to Owners -We all helped to pay for building these Solar Arrays: -Through Federal taxes -Through Xcel Electric Bills Colorado Renewable Energy Standard - Increased to 30% by voters in
10 DIA I Pena Boulevard Facility Owner Sun Edison Developer - World Water & Solar Technologies (now Entech Solar) Prime Construction Contractor - Intermountain Electric (IME) Total construction cost approximately $14 million Leased Area 8.8 Acres of Land Commissioned September
11 DIA I -Nominal Rating is 2 MW DC. -Annual production is approximately 3.5 million kwh panels at 216 watts each -Strings of 14 panels. -Flat single axis tracking system -Tracking is hydraulically operated -For Trackers had to build support expensive -8 Arrays served by 8 Inverters -Installation Cost: $7 per watt 11
12 DIA II -Serves DIAs Fuel Storage & Distribution Facility (Fuel Farm) -Owner - Airport Solar One LLP -Developer - Oak Leaf Energy Partners -Contractor Intermountain Electric -Leased Area 9.4 Acres -Commissioned February
13 DIA II -Nominal Rating is 1.6 MW DC Panels at 216 watts per panel -Also Strings of 14 panels -Fixed Tilt at 25 degrees South -25 degree fixed tilt 17% less efficient per panel than the flat tracker but far less costly to construct -Produces 2.5 million kwh per year -Cost about $7 million -Output matches well to the overall electrical usage of the Fuel Farm -Cost $4.38 per watt 13
14 DIA III Connects to Sewer pump station far north end of DIA Owner: Denver Airport Solar, LLC (Constellation Energy) Developer: Oakleaf Energy Partners Construction Contractor: Intermountain Electric Built on 26 Acres of Land Commissioned in July
15 DIA III -Nominal Rating is 4.46 MW DC -18,980 panels at 235W each -Strings of 13 panels -Fixed Tilt at 25 degree South -Produces about 7 million kwh per year -Cost about $14 million. -$3.14 per watt 15
16 Renewable vs. Non-Renewable -ALL Energy Sources have Advantages and Disadvantages -To allow Solar and Wind to replace Coal, Natural Gas and Nuclear, need to develop better ways to store the Energy. -Batteries -Hydrogen -Other -Price is coming down for Renewable Energy -For many years, will need to use Coal, Gas, and Nuclear. 16
