30 Case Studies Paul Gipe & Assoc.

31 Distributed (Self) Generation Schafer Systems: Taking a Gamble Adair, Iowa, 1995 V27, 225 kW, 480 VAC 5.8 m/s Site ~$300,000 500,000 kWh/yr Net Metering 75% of Load

32 Schafer Systems No Tax Credit $3,000/yr Insurance (2X projected) 8 yr. Payback Abuts I-80 R-o-W Rezoned for Height Ice Throw to Roof Lightning

33 Case Study-Altamont Pass Paul Gipe & Assoc. Peak Development 81-88 ~5,000 Turbines ~550 MW (Capped) ~1 TWh/yr Early Turbines ~20 Years Old Aging High Maintenance Slated for “Repowering” Since 1998!

34 Case Study-Altamont Pass Paul Gipe & Assoc. ~$2 Billion Invested Birds Remain an Issue Good Match w/ Load Peak Winds Summer Evenings When Convective Heating Greatest USW/Kenetech Dominated Yields Good on Later Turbines 650-850 kWh/m 2 /yr
