The Ukrainian parliament adopted Draft Law No. 10183 which amends the country's feed-in tariff scheme for supporting electricity production from renewable energy sources. Some key changes include establishing fixed minimum "green" tariff rates for different renewable technologies that decrease over time. It also introduces local content requirements for renewable energy projects, mandating a certain percentage of components, materials and labor come from Ukraine. If projects do not meet these local content thresholds, the tariff rate will be set at the wholesale electricity price instead of the higher feed-in tariff. The law is awaiting signature from Ukraine's president and could face a potential veto.
Optimizing energy yield in multi-MW power converters for wind” by Mikel zabal...Ingeteam Wind Energy
Great conference last week in Bremen: 6th International Conference Drivetrain Concepts for Wind Turbines. Mikel Zabaleta, Ingeteam Wind Energy Product Manager, presented “Optimizing energy yield in multi-MW power converters for wind”.
The document analyzes the life cycle costs of geothermal heat pumps (GHPs) and three conventional HVAC systems for an elementary school in Lincoln, Nebraska. It finds that GHPs had the lowest life cycle cost, about $230,000 less than the next most economical system, due to lower initial, energy, and maintenance costs. The results confirm that for this school, GHPs provided significant energy reductions while having comparable or lower costs than other common HVAC technologies.

The document discusses current policy drivers for increasing the use of onsite renewable energy in the UK, including legally binding targets to reduce carbon emissions and increase the share of energy from renewable sources. It outlines financial incentives for renewable energy installations, such as Feed-in Tariffs (FITs) and the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI). FITs provide generators a fixed payment per kilowatt-hour of renewable electricity generated over a period of 10-25 years depending on the technology. The RHI will similarly incentivize renewable heat generation.
The document discusses the UK photovoltaic (PV) market and the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme. It provides background on previous renewable energy policies, describes the key aspects of the new FITs program including eligible technologies, tariff levels and durations. It also covers administration of the scheme, potential issues, and projections for significant growth in small-scale PV capacity and generation due to the incentives provided by the FITs.
In urban area, sitting renewable energy (RE) can be a challenging issue because only few spacious land is available but the demand of the energy is high. Hence the proper selection of RE technology is important to ensure plenty of energy are delivered from limited site area. This paper present how does the local climate condition in typical urban area, Auckland Central Business District, affect annual electricity production and energy production of PV or Wind Power system. The analysis is then extended to find the energy density for respective RE system.The result are strategic to advise which renewable energy system can actually optimize energy production in the small land area.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

1. The ‘new’ - micro renewable energy and
refurbishment incentive schemes
Green Deal
Renewable Heat Incentive
Feed in Tariff
Nick Tune, Director BRE Wales
3. Introduction
• The UK Government have developed 3
schemes for micro renewable energy
and low energy refurbishment
– The Feed in Tariff – finance scheme
for electricity generating renewable
energy
– The Renewable Heat Incentive –
finance scheme for heat generating
renewable energy
– The Green Deal – ‘pay as you save’
scheme for building refurbishment
4. Feed in Tariff
• Started April 1st 2010 Tariff is RPI linked and guaranteed for 25 yrs
• Highest generation rate available until 2012, then decreases for new entrants
• Tariffs paid by a utility company, administered by Ofgem
• Electricity not used can be exported
• You do not need to be the building owner to claim the generation tariff
• Significant alterations in market conditions since introduction
10. Some important issues to consider
• Site orientation and shading
• System specification
• Financial assumptions on technical performance
• Pre-payment meters and metering
• Replacement of components over time
• Output drop over time
• Fixing methods
• Resident engagement
• Financial Models and Insurance
12. Feed in Tariff for PV – Site and Shading
Site Selection:
• South facing
• Essential to consider over-shading to calculate generation yields
3D – Shading Analysis
15. Feed in Tariff for PV
Consultancy for PV
•Identifying the most suitable sites
•Accurate predictions of energy generation
•Modelling of shading
•Modelling Module/Inverter configurations
•Support tender evaluation
•Confirm specifications
• Support investment case
16. The Renewable Heat Incentive
• Payments for renewable heat generation similar to FIT for
electricity
• An incentive based mechanism with intention of creating a
bigger market for renewable heat
• RHI will be funded from general Government spending,
not through the previously proposed RHI levy
• Due to go live from ‘Summer 2011’
• Two phases of implementation
17. Two-Phase Approach
• Phase 1: Non-Domestic Sector
» Targeting large energy users
» Businesses, industrial, public sector
» Communal systems included, e.g. sheltered
housing
• Phase 2: Domestic
» Long-term support aligned with Green Deal
(i.e. will support ‘whole house approach’)
» October 2012 for implementation
18. Confirmed original proposals
• Installations between 15 July 2009 & introduction of
scheme eligible for tariffs
• Long term support (adjusted for inflation) to compensate
for:
– Capex and opex of renewable heating compared to a gas fossil fuel
alternative
– Additional barrier and financial cost (assuming a 12% rate of return for a
reference installation, apart from solar thermal);
• Support for technologies classed as renewable
• MCS for installations <45kW
• Ofgem E-Serve will administer the scheme
19. New policy
• Value for money is key
• Two phase approach –second phase of the scheme from 2012
• Domestic included from 2012 –initial support through Renewable Heat
Premium Payments
• Fewer technologies supported in phase 1 to allow further evidence
gathering
• Two-tier tariff for biomass <1MW
• Funded from Government spending

• Approximate capex = £15,000
– Its "Tier Break" can be determined by multiplying 30kW x 1,314h =
39,420 kWh. It will receive:
• The Tier 1 tariff for first 39,420kWh,
i.e. 39,420kWh x 7.6p/kWh = £2,995.92
• The Tier 2 tariff for the remaining 5,580kWh,
i.e. 5,580kWh x 1.9p/kWh = £106.02
Total RHI payment = £3102 /yr

30. Green Deal
• Pay as you save scheme
• Whole House Approach
• Companies e.g. British Gas, B&Q, M&S,
Tesco etc will pay for and install energy saving
measures
• No upfront cost
• A percent e.g. 80% of energy savings made
by the measures will be used to pay off the
cost of the measures (must within 25 years)
• Measures must provide greater energy
savings than the repayments over the 25 yr
period
31. What measures will be funded?
• Phase 1 - energy saving measures
– Solid Wall insulation,
– Double glazing
– Cavity wall
– Loft
• 2ND Phase - Micro renewables
– PV
– SHW
32. Who will implement Green Deal?
• Licensed Assessors – energy model the house (similar to
the EPC certificate) suggest measures
• Home owner signs up to scheme and pay back period
• Registered companies install measures to set standards
e.g. MCS etc
• The loan is against the house not the individual i.e. the
repayment is passed onto the new home owner
