Module 6B: Renewable Power Production and Distribution (Optional)
Outcome
Examine power production from renewable sources.
Indicators
(a) | Compare the characteristics of various renewable power sources (e.g., residential photovoltaic solar, commercial solar and wind). |
(b) | Research different options (e.g., net metering, grid tie and off-grid battery storage and off-grid power sources) associated with renewable power generation. |
(c) | Explain how power generated from renewable sources can be made available to the electrical grid, considering technologies such as DC solar, power inverters, grid tie devices, islanding devices and bi-directional meters. |
(d) | Analyze the economic benefits of generating power from renewable sources, considering factors such as payback period, technology costs and efficiency. |
(e) | Design and/or construct a model of a power system that incorporates renewable sources. |
(f) | Investigate the current and potential future status of power production from renewable sources in Saskatchewan. |
