TCAAP JDA MEETING 11/3/2014 – ERAB comments <br />There is a big challenge of how to design, show the economic benefits and implementation of a <br />TCAAP Sustainable Energy System. <br />• Energy savings come from efficient building design and construction. <br />• Energy savings can also come from thermal or geothermal for heating and cooling and <br />from ground mounted solar installations for electrical supply. <br /> The white paper explains options to meet those challenges. <br />Minnesota law requires Xcel Energy to install 300 MW of solar by 2020. Xcel’s goal is to install <br />100 MW by the end of 2016. To achieve electrical energy savings with ground mounted solar <br />installations at TCAAP, there needs to be joint cooperation between TCAAP, AHATS and Xcel. <br />• The AHATS land would allow large ground mounted solar which is less than one-half the <br />installation cost of rooftop solar. <br />• Thermal and geothermal also benefits from cooperation with AHATS. <br />The Energy Integration Resiliency Framework (EIRF) needs to show how sustainable building <br />design, solar and geothermal/thermal energy use, can be a win-win for TCAAP, Xcel, AHATS, the <br />City, County, developers and customers. <br />The combination can produce a win-win for all and make TCAAP a model energy sustainable <br />community. <br />Lyle Salmela – ERAB Chair
