Energy Solution for San Pablo Brittney, Trevor, Jason, Steven

Review San Pablo wants to get off the energy grid They haven’t paid for their electric bill in 8 years

Problem Statement San Pablo relies on electricity for their everyday lives but due to political and financial and cultural issues, want to separate themselves from the power company.

Efficiency problem They are inefficient in energy usage heating water, lighting, & showers They don’t have enough money to pay for a cheap alternative, sustainable energy source such as micro hydro

Solutions? Education More efficient power usage Micro hydro

Education Plan Curriculum to teach the locals: - The importance of being efficient with their power - Financially (ease tensions with power company) - Environmentally - How to be energy efficient

Energy Efficiency Limit light usage: - turn off when not needed (on timers) - energy efficient light bulbs (15% more efficient) - better windows - sky lights Cut back during peak usage Better stoves Better insulation More efficient showers (solar showers?)

Micro Hydro

Estimated Micro Hydro Electricity Production -Assumptions- Wet Season Flow Rate: 200 L /sec Dry Season Flow Rate: 80 L /sec Elevation Change: 150 m System Efficiency of 50% 58.8 kw Production

Estimated Micro Hydro System Costs Development Costs = $3,500/kw Transmission Costs = $30,000 Total System Cost = $3,500(58.8 kw)+$30,000=$235,800

Payment Down Payment = $100 per family Interest Rate = 5% Expected Annual Maintenance Costs = $10,000 Monthly Payment: $1, Monthly Payment Per Family: $8.09

Knowledge is power!... no, seriously
