Renewable Energy in Rural Alaska
Author: Jesse L. Logan
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electric power distribution
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
"This thesis argues that the costs of electricity in rural Alaska are ecological, economic, and social, and asks whether or not renewable energy can reduce these costs. Two case studies are examined: a wind-diesel hybrid system in Kotzebue, Alaska, and an Organic Rankine cycle geothermal system in Chena Hot Springs, Alaska. In both cases it is found that when compared to the status quo (fossil fuel generated electricity), renewable energy technologies have reduced these costs. Historically, the funding for energy projects in Alaska has shifted from private enterprise investment to state and federal support. This is important in the debate regarding funding for a transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. The Power Equalization Program is also examined and found to be a paradoxical subsidy that provides economic relief but does not solve the problem of high electricity costs and may act as a disincentive to the deployment of renewables"--Leaf iii.

Power Systems Integration
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Kodiak (Alaska)
Languages : en
Pages : 4
Book Description
"The rising demand for clean, renewable energy has propelled research on how to integrate renewable energy resources--such as wind or geothermal-- into the existing electric grid. Power systems integration (PSI) is the process of integrating diverse energy sources, which are only useful if they can be harnessed, into a coherent system. PSI, then, is both a challenge and necessity, and it generates substantial need for continued research. This research briefing provides background on PSI and the PSI Lab at the University of Alaska Fairbanks and explores three Alaska case studies that look at the integration of diverse renewable power sources."--Introduction.
