Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) Model- avail of 50% discount now
As promised in my previous blog, I will now deal with the cost of renewable energy technologies (feed-in-tariff). I will be making a special offer for the purchase of the following RE technologies:
1) Biomass Power Model (Direct Combustion, Cogeneration, Gasification of MSW)
2) Mini-Hydro Power Model
3) Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) Model
4) Solar PV Power Model
5) Wind Power Model
6) Renewable Energy Resource Assessment Model (Wind, Solar PV, Mini-Hydro) – Converts wind speed measurement, solar radiation and rainfall data into hourly power output, annual power generation and annual capacity factor) More »

Fears of price spike due to renewable energy allayed
BY JOHN LOURENZE POQUIZ
The National Renewable Energy Board yesterday allayed fears of a spike in power rates with the tapping of renewable energy, saying the added cost will only be about 12.57 centavos per kilowatt-hour. (1 US$ = 41 Pesos, 1 Peso = 100 centavos)
In its proposed feed-in tariff (FIT) rates submitted to the Energy Regulatory Commission, the NREB pegged the rates at P6.15 per kWh for hydro, P7 for biomass, P10.37 for wind, P17.65 for ocean energy, and P17.95 for solar.
This gives an average of P11.82 per kWh. More »

Evaluating Renewable Energy Potential and Project Economics Made Easy
Evaluating Renewable Energy Potential and Project Economics Made Easy
Your energy technology selection expert wishes to announce the latest release of renewable energy (RE) project finance and energy resource evaluation tools, specifically for evaluating the performance of RE hybrid combinations such as minihydro-diesel, solar PV-diesel, wind-diesel PV and biomass gasification-diesel generation for off-grid as well as on-grid systems. The model will calculate the RE resource potential, predict the annual generation, and then calculate annual average capacity factors.
For off-grid, the model evaluates also the optimum fossil fuel back-up support so that the RE (minihydro, solar, wind, biomass) hybrid system will provide 24/7 hours of affordable and reliable electricity service.
Don’t waste your time evaluating the RE potential using obsolete and un-integrated software that are site and technology specific. In just a few minutes and few hours, you could run a series of wind site evaluations which compares the wind power levelized selling price (tariff) to your country’s diesel power generation cost or feed-in tariff.
It’s now the right time to change to the fully-integrated multi-site RE hybrid evaluation tools. More »
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to Power Project
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) to Power Project
This is a power point presentation with a project finance model for calculating feed-in tariff (FiT).
The FiT is a renewable energy charge paid to renewable energy (RE) developers for providing power to the grid. It is paid for by the Transco operator who collects a renewable energy charge (REC) from all consumers of electricity in the country. By being spread out to all consumers, the burden of a higher FiT compared to the average grid rate is shared equally by all citizens and consumers alike since they will benefit from the positive impact of RE on global warming and climate change issues.
Feed-in Tariff Calculator – from simple RP MTO formula to project finance model
Feed-in Tariff Calculator – from simple RP MTO formula to project finance model
Yes, you are right. A feed-in tariff calculator using the modified US NREL formula for levelized cost of energy (LCOE) or levelized cost of electrity is available from you Energy Technology Expert – Marcial Ocampo. (Please refer to my previous articles on simplified formula for LCOE.)
In addition, we prepared a more sophisticated project finance model to calculate the feed-in tariff using the discounted cash flow internal rate of return method (DCF IRR). More »
