City of Arden Hills – 2040 Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br /> <br />Approved:, 2018 <br />10-15 <br /> <br />Calculation <br /> <br />The gross solar potential and gross solar rooftop potential are expressed in <br />megawatt hours per year (mwh/yr), and these estimates are based on the solar <br />map above. These values represent gross totals; in other words, they are not <br />intended to demonstrate the amount of solar likely to develop within the <br />community. Instead, the calculations estimate the total potential resource before <br />removing areas unsuitable for solar development or factors related to solar <br />energy efficiency. The gross solar generation potential and the gross solar <br />rooftop generation potential are estimates of how much electricity could be <br />generated using existing technology and assumptions on the efficiency of <br />conversion. The conversion efficiency of 10% is based on benchmarking <br />analyses for converting the Solar Suitability Map data to actual production, and <br />solar industry standards used for site level solar assessment. <br /> <br />Gross Potential <br />(mwh/yr) <br />Rooftop Potential <br />(mwh/yr) <br />Gross Generation <br />Potential <br />(mwh/yr)^2 <br />Rooftop Generation <br />Potentail <br />(mwh/yr)^2 <br />13,320,595 925,656 1,332,059 92,565 <br /> <br /> <br />10.6 INVASIVE SPECIES <br /> <br />While many of the open spaces in Arden Hills are of high quality, invasive species such <br />as buckthorn are a problem in many parks and open spaces throughout Minnesota. <br />Unfortunately, a number of parks and open spaces in Arden Hills contain buckthorn. In <br />cooperation with residents and service groups, the City has instituted a buckthorn <br />removal program. The City plans to continue to control buckthorn on an ongoing basis <br />as needed and as resources are available. The City will also continue to encourage the <br />removal of buckthorn and other invasive species from private land. <br /> <br />10.7 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES <br /> <br />In order to advance the protected resources goal, the below activities are proposed: <br />o Maintain tree preservation standards and landscaping requirements. <br />o Review existing and develop new policies or regulations to protect identified <br />natural resource protection areas, including historical areas. <br />o Encourage new development to respect the natural features and to minimize <br />damage to the natural environment.
