2 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Questions from yesterday Logistics for today

3 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING

4 Kif Scheuer

5 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING The capacity to do work comes in many forms To do work energy converts from one form to another 5

6 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Kif climbs a ladder in 10 seconds. Kif’s rate of work = 60kg * 1.5m * 10m/s^2 / 10s = 90 Watts 1.5 m ladder 60 kg mass ~10 m/s^2 gravitational acceleration Three 30-watt light bulbs

7 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Watts (W) and kilowatts (kW) measure power, or the rate at which work is performed. Watt-hours (Wh) and kilowatt-hours (kWh) measure energy, or the quantity of electricity used. Demand is measured in watts, Consumption is measured in watt hours.

8 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Watts Time Energy: ~12 kWh Power: 2.1 kW

9 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING 1 Ampere – A charge carrying 6.2 x 10^18 electrons per second. 1 Volt – The difference in electric potential across a wire when a current of one ampere dissipates one watt of power. Watts = Volts x Amps

10 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING V (voltage) = I (current) X R (resistance)

11 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING

12 Links power plants to load centers Links transmission lines together Power is ‘pooled’ in the transmission system, and each distribution system draws from the pool ‘System’ has diversity of sources 150 computerized control centers to dispatch generators as needed An electron is an electron!

13 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Power Plants Old Coal 35% New Coal 60% Wind 45% Solar PV 15% T&D 6-8% loss $20 billion/yr

14 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Base-load Power plants – run all the time (nuclear) Peaking power plants – run to meet peak loads (old coal or oil fired) Intermediate power plants – meet constantly changing loads (Nat gas)

15 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Renewable vs. Non-renewable power Climate Neutral power

16 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Source: U.S. EIA, Monthly Energy Review (March 2012)

17 C LIMATE C ORPS B AY A REA 2012 T RAINING Source: U.S. EIA, Annual Energy Review 2010
