|
Bioconversion References: Instead of being restricted to 239 city locations,
Version 2 allows the user to select a specific location (based on a 40 km grid cell)
by using NREL's Internet Map Server (IMS) at http://www.nrel.gov/gis. Because PVWATTS
Version 2 uses additional input data, the results may differ slightly from those for
PVWATTS Version 1. Version 2 can be run only for the 48 contiguous states, Alaska and
Hawaii. The use of the Internet Map Server increases the complexity of PVWATTS, but
provides additional information for locations. |
|
Btu Calculator: Version 1 is the original PVWATTS. The user chooses a state
from a map or a text list, and then the city of interest. The calculations may be done
using the default system parameters, or the user may specify the PV system size, local
electric costs, whether a fixed or tracking PV array, and the PV array tilt and
azimuth angles. PVWATTS calculates monthly and annual energy production in kWh and
monthly savings in dollars. The user may also choose to output hourly AC power data,
which can saved to a text file. Version 1 can be run for Guam or Puerto Rico as well
as the 50 states. |

Energy To Carbon Dioxide Converter From National Energy Foundation: new link
-- The Home Energy Saver is designed to help you identify the best ways to save energy
in your home, and find the resources to make the savings happen. The Home Energy Saver
asks for a detailed description of your home, and then quickly computes energy use
on-line. Results are provided in dollars, kilowatt-hours and CO2 emissions for your
house and the most energy efficient house. By changing one or more features, you can
estimate how much energy and money you can save and how much pollution you can prevent
by improving your home's energy efficiency. In addition, the Home Energy Saver's
"Making it Happen" and Energy Librarian" modules connect users to an expanding array
of "how-to" information resources throughout the Internet. |
