Net Zero Energy Concepts

Definition of Net Zero Energy
NET ZERO SITE ENERGY
-100% energy is produced at Site
NET ZERO ENERGY COST
Net zero cash transaction between owner
and utility
-Does not account for conversion loss
-Does not track emission
NET ZERO SOURCE ENERGY
-Accounted for at the source, used
energy equals produced energy
-Accounts for conversion and
distribution loss
Can take advantage of pick hour cost
structure
NET ZERO EMISSIONS
Emission free energy equals all emission
caused by building energy use
Focused more on environmental aspect
than price or security concerns

US Coast Guard Puerto Rico –
At a Glance
• Some of USCG’s big energy consumers
– Sector San Juan – 15 highest
– Air Station Borinquen – 19 highest
•
•
•
•
•
Total of 6% of overall facility energy cost
2% of total facility energy consumption
360 buildings
964 kGSF
Two different operational missions, one project
17
Other Driving Factors
• Borinquen housing designated “inadequate”
• Roofing is largest O&M item for both locations
• Condensing units on roof
• Non‐functional solar domestic hot water (SDHW)
• Local O&M resource constraints
18
US Coast Guard Facilities
• Wide variety of building types and use
19
Project Intent

• Entire project self‐funding but not comprehensive
23
Leveraging Investment
• Use of US Treasury Grant for solar PV
– Financer maintains ownership
– $6.3M grant reduced total cost
• Capital contributions
– $10.5M for roofing and insulation
– $3.3M for planned replacement of HVAC
24
Pilots – Proving the Theory
• Testing the variable refrigerant volume (VRV) system – new technology to the region
– Occupants increased temperature set points (better humidity control at lower energy consumption)
25
Cool Roof and Insulation
• Buildings experienced a ~5F temperature drop
– No leaks were additional benefit
– SDHW (non‐functional) was removed to make way for solar PV
– Warranty maintained by contractor

Data Center Energy Economics Can Drive Facility Efficiency
Cost of physical space used to be the primary consideration in data center design……Not Any More!
Costs of power and cooling has risen to prominence. Power costs are growing exponentially and outpacing all other growth factors.
Data center managers must ensure close alignment of technology and facilities while prioritizing investments in efficient power and cooling systems to lower the total cost of operations (TCO). Multiple systems manage energy in facility data centers

ENERGY SECURITY
• “…Energy Security: a critical Army mission. • Our Army must have sufficient power and energy – Forward edges of today’s battlefields
– At every corner of our installations, or at our desks
– Without energy, the Army would stand still and silent
Without secure energy, the Army is vulnerable to fuel and energy outages
• Most everything done in the Army across the full spectrum of operations requires energy…”

SOLAR‐GEOTHERMAL POWER OVERVIEW
• Solar energy can boost the turbine inlet steam temperature of geothermal plants, thereby improving overall plant efficiency
• Significant global and US geographic areas with coincident solar and geothermal resources
• Combining resources increases design and operational complexity
SOURCES: GEOTHERMAL AND SOLAR
Geothermal hot spots
Thermal Energy Areas
According to Emerging Energy Research’s (EER) market forecasts, globally more than 9GW of geothermal power projects are under development. Geothermal power generation will increase from its current installed base of 10.5 GW to over 31 GW by 2020. The solar thermal power is scaling rapidly with 1.2GW
under construction as of April 2009 and could reach more than 25GW by 2020.
US SOLAR & GEOTHERMAL RESOURCES
US Geothermal Resource
US Solar Thermal Resource
• Current geothermal power generation capacity in the US is roughly 3GW, with around 6.5GW of additional power capacity under development. • On solar side, enough electric power for the entire US consumption could be generated by covering about 9 % of Nevada desert—a plot of land 100 miles on a side. SOLAR POWER TECHNOLOGIES
• PHOTOVOLTAIC
– Direct conversion of solar energy into DC electrical Energy
• CPV
– Mirrors or lenses Concentrating sunlight onto multi‐
junction PV cell
• Size: 0.001MW - 500MW Cost: $8000-3500/KW
SOLAR POWER TECHNOLOGIES
•
SOLAR THERMAL
– SOLAR DISH
• Mirrors Concentrating solar energy to drive Stirling engine to produce AC electrical Energy
– LINEAR FRESNEL
• Flat Mirrors Concentrate solar energy onto linear tube generating vapor to drive turbine
– SOLAR TROUGH
• Trough shaped Mirrors Concentrate solar energy onto linear tube generating vapor to drive turbine
– SOLAR TOWER
• Mirrors tracking sunlight and focus solar energy onto central receiver on tower to generate vapor to drive turbine • Size:0.025MW ‐ 1000MW

Additional costs will also be needed for:
● Development fee
● Permitting
● Insurance
● Financing
● Switchyard
● Transmission Solar Thermal & Geothermal Power Integration
•
•
Potential benefits:
– Solar thermal can produce temperatures up to 1000 ºF, providing higher turbine inlet temperatures and a more efficient overall power plant. – Share transmission and distribution, balance of plant system, utility, admin building, cooling system and operation personals may reduce overall renewable energy cost.
– Combined resources may reduce risk of future geothermal reservoir performance decline.
Potential issues:
– Diurnal, intermittent nature of solar energy creates complexity when introduced to geothermal base load power
– Co‐firing with fossil fuels may be necessary to provide operational consistency and levelling
– Limited number of suitable sites with solar, geothermal, transmission, and cooling water

• EO 13514‐ starting in 2020 all new federal buildings planned NZE by 2030
• US Army‐ 5 Installations by 2020/25 by 2030
• US Navy‐ By 2020 50% of Navy Installations
EO 13514 Definition for Building
• "zero‐net‐energy building" means a building that is designed, constructed, and operated to require a greatly reduced quantity of energy to operate, meet the balance of energy needs from sources of energy that do not produce greenhouse gases, and therefore result in no net emissions of greenhouse gases and be economically viable. DOE Definition for Building
• In general, a net‐zero energy building produces as much energy as it uses over the course of a year. Net‐zero energy buildings are very energy efficient. The remaining low energy needs are typically met with on site renewable energy.
