Revisit Supply and Demand, focus on: 1) Energy Resource 2) Delivery System Sizing & Design PVWatts (Solar Resource) PV for Water Pumping Systems (System) Oregon NRCS Tech. Note No. 28 Oregon NRCS Calculator Adapt for other Uses 2
3 Delivery System Capacity * Peak Need * Storage * Energy Resource * - Landowner Time & Money
4 Delivery System Capacity Peak Need Storage Energy Resource
5 Solar Irradiance: amount of solar energy projected on to a surface (i.e., panel). Recall that Watt measures instant energy flow.
6 Solar Insolation: amount of solar over a period of time (e.g., day, month, year). Measured as kWh/sq. meter/day, typically.
