Park Presents Unique Energy Challenges for Student Project, continued
While the alternative system
won't be able to produce enough power for all the refrigeration needs,
the photovoltaic panels coupled with recommended energy conservation measures
and more efficient generators, would allow the diesel generators to consume
50 percent less fuel, Johnston says.
He will present his final
design and analysis, based on weather data for the extreme alpine environment
and monitoring of the building's electrical loads, in May — just
before Trail Ridge Road reopens for the summer season.
