What is the Integrated Renewable Energy System (IRES) and how Australia’s energy system can benefit from it?
In an Interview, the interviewer has expressed his interest in establishing renewable energy project for his company premises located in the Sohar Industrial area. The company involved in melting of metals which needs more thermal energy. Also, more electricity bill is being paid for their operation and maintenance activities. What are the possible renewable energy techniques would you suggest by considering all the factors like energy, social and environmental? What could be your conclusion on the use of renewable energy...
1. A renewable energy system delivers 120 kW of three-phase power at 400 V (line-line) to a load with a 0.9 lagging power factor. If each power line has a resistance of R = 0.03 Ω and reactance of X = 0.04 Ω, determine the sending end voltage (line-line) of the three-phase power line connected to the renewable energy system for supplying power to the load. 2. A network service operator found that the voltage rise in a network due...
Swifty Corporation has decided to invest in renewable energy sources to meet part of its energy needs for production. It is considering solar power versus wind power. After considering cost savings as well as incremental revenues from selling excess electricity into the power grid, it has determined the following. Solar Wind Present value of annual cash flows $52,608 $129,765 Initial investment $38,400 $105,500 Determine the net present value and profitability index of each project. (If the net present value is...
