ASSESMENT OF RENEWABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES (SOLAR THERMAL AND WINDMILS)
Abstract: The development of
renewable energy technologies (RETs) has moved forward significantly; while the
current environmental problems that some attribute to, among others, the
combustion of fossil fuels to produce energy has contributed to the
attractiveness these technologies. In some instances, governments support RETS
and have put in place subsidies to encourage people and companies to implement
or use them. Companies have responded to this as it not only brings monetary
savings from using energy efficiently but can also be valuable for their image
as more and more consumers are becoming environmentally conscious. Many
companies have decided to take a similar route and is interested in using RETS
and other environmentally friendly technologies to meet its energy
requirements. The report has addressed the issue of looking at the technical
and financial feasibility of installing some or all of the identified renewable
energy technologies (wind energy and solar thermal), and has been structured in
line with the following approach. In this report, the following
approach/preliminary assessment method based on Investment Costs, O & M
Costs, Operational hours/year, Ease of Installation, O&M Procedures, Social
Acceptability, Greenness of technology.
