Notas do Editor

  1. The feasbility document is a guide to getting a solar deal done. Parties, Costs, benefits, time to complete, cost to complete, risk factors.
  2. I start promptly. Please be on time Cellphones silenced. Emergency Evacuation Procedures.
  3. The Where is basically anywhere orange or red on this map.
  4. Where have we seen this movie before? Manufacturers ramp up supply and the price drops due to capacity issues. The process really picks up speed when pure PV power costs less than grid power We are already there in Northern California for the top 10 to 20% of demand. This forecast assumes the tax benefits are extended until 2012, and assumes we run through the ten year California Solar Initiative in five years. It does not take into account the impact of disruptive harvesting technologies like First Solar’s, Nanosolar’s or other emerging techniques. It assumes grid power prices continue to increase at roughly a 7 to 10% per annum rate, equal to other energy sources.
  5. There is a relationship between tilt, azimuth and shade. The numbers represent percentage yield from arrays oriented differently. Maximum yield is achieved by a true south orientation, and tilted at latitude—for here it is a 9 in 12 pitch. For instant feasibility—there are a number of options to get to your best fit solution. What is the math?
  6. And on May 2—its your turn. You will self select into teams of no more than 3 people, and present your solar feasibility concept to a team of three
  7. Review the Project timeline Inset project chart here. To grow, your business must earn the marketplace’s permission. The customer must give your business permission to sell to him.
  8. Review the Project timeline Inset project chart here. To grow, your business must earn the marketplace’s permission. The customer must give your business permission to sell to him.
  9. If you are in the Development Business, it may mean there is an incredible opportunity ahead of us. Today, you have learned how to test your properties to see if pure PV power is a way to add value. We looked at the numbers, extracted some trends are, and you can judge how close we are to a tipping point. One final question---
