BMT Designers & Planners 1 Wind Farm Technology: Is it the Answer? National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) 30 th Environmental and Energy Symposium & Exhibition 7 April 2004 Mike Hicks Vice President, Environmental Programs

BMT Designers & Planners 2 Wind Industry Overview Global wind power capacity grew from 7,600 MW in 1997 to 31,000 MW in 2002 Targeted wind electric capacity of 100 GW in the U.S. by 2020 Current wind energy generating cost is at 3-5 cents per kWh

BMT Designers & Planners 3 Worldwide Wind Energy Generation World Wind Leaders: 1.Germany 2.Spain 3.U.S. 4.Denmark 5.India

BMT Designers & Planners 4 Why Wind Power? Federal mandates Energy security Environmental benefits Good wind resources Cost competitive DoD opportunities

BMT Designers & Planners 5 Federal Mandates and Initiatives E.O mandates a 35% cut in energy usage by 2010 and a 30% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions between 1990 and E.O mandates that Federal agencies implement renewable energy programs where practical. Renewable energy assessment – a road map for DoD to develop renewable energy resources “on or near” military bases in the U.S.

BMT Designers & Planners 6 DoD Wind Energy Assessment Lead by Air Force for DoD. Approximately 20 sites have been selected for detailed wind data collection. Assessment due to Congress in Summer 2004.

BMT Designers & Planners 7 U.S. Wind Resources

BMT Designers & Planners 8 Top 17 States with High Wind Energy Potential 1North Dakota11Colorado 2Texas12New Mexico 3Kansas13Idaho 4South Dakota14Michigan 5Montana15New York 6Nebraska16Illinois 7Wyoming17California 8Oklahoma 9Minnesota 10Iowa

BMT Designers & Planners 9 Driving Costs Down Further Advancement in turbine technology Increasing demand for advanced wind systems

BMT Designers & Planners 10 DoD Opportunities for Wind Power Emerging security requirements Isolated locations Emission reduction goals Diversify fuel portfolio Reduce fuel price volatility risk Save money

BMT Designers & Planners 11 Criteria for Developing Wind Energy Sites with good wind resources Facilities with high cost of electricity Diesel oil and fuels are currently being transported to the site for power generation Current power generation systems result in non- compliance with environmental regulations

BMT Designers & Planners 12 Applications Communication equipment Navigation aids Special military operation requirements Pumping and irrigation systems Desalination and water treatment systems

BMT Designers & Planners 13 Environmental Benefits Reduction in air emissions Reduction in fuel consumption for power generation Renewable and clean energy source

BMT Designers & Planners 14 Environmental Concerns Visual/aesthetic impact Bird and avian mortality Recreational activity impacts Archaeological site impacts Noise pollution Potential effects on seabeds (offshore wind farms) Navigation and oil spill risk Marine mammal activity

BMT Designers & Planners 15 San Clemente Island, CA Navy Auxiliary Landing Field U.S. Navy Island 52 miles off San Diego

BMT Designers & Planners 16 San Clemente Island, CA Total generating capacity of 675-kW (three 225 kW NEG Micron turbines) Provides 17% of the island’s electricity demand Annual energy saving of $112,000 Electricity generating cost of 3-4 cents/kWh Reduction in diesel fuel usage of over 140,000 Gal Reduction in green house gas emissions: –Over 3 million lbs of CO2 –Over 18,000 lbs of CO –Over 85,000 lbs of Nox –Over 5,600 lbs of SO2 –Over 6,000 lbs of PM10

BMT Designers & Planners 17 Ascension Island U.S. Air Force installation on British Island Located 500 miles south of the Equator in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean

BMT Designers & Planners 18 Ascension Island Four 225-kW wind generators Electrical generation at a reduce output (0-40 kW) Displacing 287,000 Gal of diesel fuel Annual saving of $350,000 Reduction in air emissions: –2.8 million lbs of CO2 –98,000 lbs of NOx

BMT Designers & Planners 19 Summary Wind energy presents a cost saving option when the price of fuel currently used is high and the wind resource is good. The remote location on many DoD facilities validates the use of renewable energy in reducing the cost of fuel transportation. The benefits of environmental protection and long-term price stability will increase the utilization of wind farms by DoD. Wind farms will definitely be part of the future DoD energy solution.
