with the University of Alaska Fairbanks, which has the task of consolidating Alaska’s energy data and creating a web‐based portal for the public’s access. Important Terms and Definitions Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Is the process of evaluating and identifying environmental impacts from cradle to grave. This process quantifies the emissions, resource depletion, and energy consumption of the transformation of all raw materials into useful products and the final disposal of all products and by‐products. (Mann & Spath, 1997) It incorporates the total environmental and economic consequences of any project. (Mann & Spath, 1997) Using LCA allows the expensive initial investment in renewable energy system and level out when competing against current establish technologies and in a comprehensive, long‐range analysis. Project Champion Have a leader on the project increases the likelihood of success and longevity of the project. This person is committed from the start to the finish or establishes a strong foundation for a successor. Externalities This is an impact on a party that is not directly related to a transaction. This could be a positive or negative impact that is created. An example of a negative externality would be pollution from burning diesel fuel that lowers air quality for the city. A positive externality may include the hydroelectric facility generation not emitting pollution or affecting the environment. Externalities are as important as understanding LCA, because of the importance of understanding the whole process of a system especially when trying to compare to other options. Capacity Factor This is a critical aspect when considering renewable energy projects, especially as a utility alternative. The capacity factor is the actual energy output divided by its maximum possible output. (Boyle, 2004) Many renewable energy resources, especially in Sitka, are variable and can severely impact a capacity factor of a system. Conversion Efficiency This represents how well the power system converts the fuel into energy. Example: (Rated Capacity of System = 100 MW, Capacity Factor = 30%, Conversion Efficiency = 35%) Electrical output potential Potential Output = 100MW x 8760 hours/ year = 876,000 MWh of output Actual Output = 100MW x 30% x 8760 hours/ year = 262,800 MWh of output Fuel Input Required = (100MW/35%) x 30% x 8760 hours/ year = 750,857 MWh kW/MW v. kWh/MWh Understanding the difference between these two terms are critical to understanding electrical production and distribution. When using the term kilowatt, it represents the installed capacity (power output) for a particular generation system. A kilowatt‐hour is a unit of electricity usage and represents how many kW’s (energy output) were used over a period of 8760 hours in a year.PDF Image | COMPREHENSIVE RENEWABLE ENERGY FEASIBILITY STUDY Sitka
