Design Methodology
The RES design and installation process can be divided into these steps:
-
Initial discussion and understanding your system's requirements
-
Evaluation of your site and its renewable energy potential
-
System design and quotation completed
-
Project initiation
-
System installation and startup
-
System walk-through and briefing
-
Ongoing service and support as required
Design Process
The process of system design begins with understanding the requirements for your renewable system. This is key to determining the best system for you both for performance and cost. This requires us to understand several things:
-
Your electrical usage requirements
-
For on grid systems, we like to take a year’s history of your usage, which can be obtained by reviewing your past bills
-
For off grid systems, it is necessary to complete a load calculation worksheet to provide the usage demand requirements
-
The available renewable resources at your site
-
What are the limitations or opportunities at your site
-
How much wind is available, what are the terrain limitations, what are the sun exposures
The answers to these questions and the analysis of your site, will impact the proper design solution. A site survey may be necessary for the final determination of the proper system.
The available budget for renewable energy and your goals for the system. Budget limitations may require designs with expandability or backup capabilities from non-renewable energy sources.
A quote will be prepared for your system including all required materials and installation costs. Quotations will include a financial analysis detailing average annual energy savings, payback period, estimated rebates/credits, net costs, and return on investment.
Installation
After you order your system, RES will order the required materials and components, coordinate their arrival at your site, assemble the system components, and install the system as quickly as possible.
We will take care of the building permits and coordinate with the local building inspectors to make sure everything is properly installed and meets code requirements. After we are satisfied that your system is operating to specification, we will demonstrate how the system works and answer any questions about its operation.
Alaska’s cost of power is twice the national average in major city’s and can be more than 8 times more expensive in the
remote Villages of Alaska. Every year the cost of power goes up, in the next 10 years you will pay someone for your
power, why not pay yourself? The average payback is less than 8 years, and over the lifetime of your solar system it will
pay for itself more than 5 times over. No moving parts, no maintenance, no batteries, no reason not to go solar today.
