23 Q PV installations by market segment by state

24 Advantages and Challenges Advantages of Solar Power Significant, locally available resource Proven, highly reliable, low maintenance No fuel cost, fixed long term cost No greenhouse gas emissions Challenges for Solar Power Requires high upfront capital Architectural integration Jackson water system, Karns meadow

25 Case Study: Energy conserving home, Sheridan,WY 2.8 kw grid connected PV system Generates 305 kw-h per month Total project cost $18,536 After tax credit cost: $12,975 Solar meets 110% of current energy use

26 Case Study: Large home, Jackson,WY 18 kw grid connected PV system Generates 2,200 kw-h per month Solar cost is less than 2% of total project cost (before tax credit) Customer motivated to offset the impact of building a large home. Hawtin Jorgensen Architects

43 Energy Mitigation Program (EMP) Over 200 permits issued to date 50% choose mitigation (50% just pay the fees) $900,000 collected ($500,000 nonrefundable)

44 EMP Fees $10,000 for a 5,000 sqft house up to $50,000 for 10,000 sqft Installing energy reducing systems generates credits to be used against fees. Solar PV, Thermal, Heat pumps, Insulation and other systems provide significant credits ($5,000 per kw PV) Non-essential building elements add fees, that can not be reduced by credits. (heated outdoor hardscapes, pools, extra decorative fireplaces, etc.)

46 Incentives and funding opportunities. 30% Investment tax credit for: solar electric and solar thermal systems. wind power systems. Accelerated depreciation of renewable energy assets No sales tax on grid-connected solar and wind systems in WY WY Business Council Solar Grant - discontinued

47 Net-metering Utility grid interconnection is made possible by net metering rules "Net-metering" means measuring the difference between the electricity supplied by an electric utility and the electricity generated by a customergenerator Wyoming legally requires utility companies to accept net metered customers.
