Guidelines
• Six presentations starting on April 29– Teams of 5-6 students: formed today
• Presentation in PowerPoint format– Review previous EE 563 presentations on web for
examples– Each team member presents for 5-6 minutes– Target presentation time: 30 minutes– Goal: At least 10 minutes at end for discussion
• Schedule presentations next time April 22– Lottery for dates– Random drawing for unallocated dates
Guidelines (continued)
• Seminar devoted to study of sustainable energy for San Luis Obispo County by 2050– Assumptions
• population in 2050 is 500K (doubles): a growth rate of about 1.6% per year (about half of 3% county target)
• Energy equally divided (25% each) between: residential, commercial, industry, transportation
• Energy sources:– Biomass – methanol– Biomass – algae (biodiesel)– Solar – photovoltaic– Hydrogen fuel cells (include source of hydrogen)
• Transportation: hybrid biodiesel• Based upon current distribution system
– Electrical: central and distributed– Transportation: service station– Storage: battery and others
Initial Resources
• BK Richard presentation• EE 563 Fall 2004:
– Group 1: SLO county PV estimation for 2050– Group 2: SLO county solar roofs– Group 3: Biodiesel
• Use the web– Begin with “google searches”– National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)– DOE– EPA

The Prize• A copy of Out of Gas goes to the team
submitting a spreadsheet with an model for energy independence for San Luis Obispo County using a combination of PV and biodiesel– Basic model is acceptable, but it must
include • Population number P (nominally 500,000)• Current PV technology efficiency E with a
declining cost factor C (i.e. N%/year) • Use UNH claims for producing liquid/stored
energy (e.g. for transportation); include pipeline costs estimates.
• Storage Cost estimate (S% of generation cost)
• Financing Cost (F% interest per year)• Grow to independence by 2050
– Goal is to build up intuition on what it will take to get there.
