  • Solar Power in Building Design
    Endorsements for Solar Power in Building Design Dr. Peter Gevorkian’s Solar Power in Building Design is the third book in a sequence of compre- hensive surveys in the field of modern solar energy theory and practice. The technical title does little to betray to the reader (including the lay reader) the wonderful and uniquely entertaining immersion into the world of solar energy. It is apparent to the reader, from the very first page, that the author is a master of the field and is weav- ing a story with a carefully designed plot. The author is a great storyteller and begins the book with a romantic yet rigorous historical perspective that includes the contribution of modern physics. A description of Einstein’s photoelectric effect, which forms one of the foundations of current photo- voltaic devices, sets the tone. We are then invited to witness the tense dialogue (the ac versus dc debate) between two giants in the field of electric energy, Edison and Tesla. The issues, though a century old, seem astonishingly fresh and relevant. In the smoothest possible way Dr. Gevorkian escorts us in a well-rehearsed manner through a fascinat- ing tour of the field of solar energy making stops to discuss the basic physics of the technology, manu- facturing process, and detailed system design. Occasionally there is a delightful excursion into subjects such as energy conservation, building codes, and the practical side of project implementation. All this would have been more than enough to satisfy the versed and unversed in the field of renew- able energy.

  • Development of an Expander for Residential Solar Thermal Power Generation
    Development of an Expander for Residential Solar Thermal Power Generation Undergraduate Honors Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation with Distinction at The Ohio State University By Matthew Rowan Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering The Ohio State University 2011 Defense Committee: Dr. Yann Guezennec, Advisor Dr. Igor Adamovich Copyrighted By Matthew Rowan 2011 ii ABSTRACT Currently, the U.S. is heavily dependent on the use of fossil fuels. In recent years, there has been a large push for increased implementation of renewable energy sources. Solar power is an attractive alternative energy source because of the virtually limitless supply of sunlight. Solar thermal power is created by concentrating sunlight to heat a working fluid and implementing the Rankine cycle to generate electricity. The systems are less suited for residential scale power generation because turbines that are used to expand the working fluid and turn the generators on a utility scale are do not scale well for small systems. The lack of a good option for a small-scale expansion device has led to the development of a new expander design originally proposed by Dr. Cantemir at the Ohio State University’s Center for Automotive Research. Dr. Cantemir’s concept was explored in this project by creating a solid model of his design. Next, a practical design for the expander was created based off of the concept and its six main parts; top cover, base, piston, joint, follower, and output shaft. The sizes, shapes, and positions of the inlet and outlet ports on the top cover were optimized to increase the expansion ratio of the device from 1.18 to 17.2.

  • Testimony of Mr. Mark Culpepper Sunedison, LLC Before the U.S
    Testimony of Mr. Mark Culpepper SunEdison, LLC Before the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works “Green Jobs Created by Global Warming Initiatives” Tuesday, September 25, 2007 Mr. Chairman, members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity to testify. My name is Mark Culpepper, and I am the Vice President for Strategic Marketing at SunEdison, LLC. SunEdison, based out of Beltsville, Maryland, is the nation’s largest solar energy service provider. We offer a unique perspective on solar energy; we sell our customers electricity, as a service. Renewable electricity, generated through photovoltaic power plants installed and maintained at their facility. This gives them the benefit of clean power at predictable price, without the upfront cost and hassle historically associated with going solar. We’re proud to count among our many clients Kohl’s, Staples, the California State University System, the City of San Diego, Wal-Mart, Sacramento Municipal Utility District, and Xcel Energy. They’re driven by a desire to make their energy costs predictable, and to address what many of them perceive as a growing climate concern. SunEdison created the model for the solar energy service provider industry, and the results speak for themselves. SunEdison has gone from roughly 15 employees in early 2006 to just under 400 today. That does not count, of course, the manufacturing jobs upstream from our industry. However, we feel that increased attention to the climate issue is necessary to continue to send the market signal that the domestic solar industry needs to continue this strong growth and regain US leadership.

  • Increasing Investment and Capital Flows in Ohio
    Increasing Investment and Capital Flows in Ohio Why Ohio Policy Matters – Opportunities to Grow Renewable Energy Markets February 2016 Executive Summary Ohio’s Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) and other policies helped create a robust market for renewable energy generation. Over 430 megawatts (MW) of wind power and 100 MW of solar power have been constructed since the 2008 enactment of the RPS. Ninety-eight percent (98%) of Ohio’s renewable energy generation has been constructed since the enactment of the RPS. Ohio currently ranks 26th in the amount of installed wind capacity in the country and 20th in the amount of installed solar capacity.1, 2 Due to Ohio’s traditional manufacturing strength, Ohio ranks 12th for the number of wind-related jobs (as of 2014)3 and 10th for the number of solar jobs.4 The scale up of renewable energy in Ohio has attracted more than $1.3 billion in asset finance, private equity and venture capital to Ohio since 2008.5 AWEA estimates that over $2.5 million in annual lease payments are made to Ohio landowners, providing additional income to rural communities.4 Renewable energy development has also created domestic supply chains that support domestic manufacturing, construction, and technology sectors and have created tens of thousands of jobs. Ohio is currently home to over 280 companies that are involved in the renewable energy industry, with 119 of those involved in manufacturing.2,3 In addition, the technologies and products developed and manufactured in the U.S. help support the global energy industry and are exported around the world.

  • Economic Development Manual – 2017
    Ohio Economic Development Manual – 2017 Dear Fellow Ohioans, Economic development is the engine that helps power Ohio’s prosperity. A variety of economic development tools — from tax incentives, loans, and grants, to transportation, zoning, and land-use planning — are useful for retaining and spurring the growth of large and small Ohio businesses. Working with economic development professionals from throughout the state, my office has created the Ohio Economic Development Manual to help current and prospective business owners, local governments, and economic development practitioners better understand the legal landscape of economic development in Ohio. We hope the manual will be a valuable resource for anyone with questions about the legal framework for economic development in Ohio and for those who are looking for innovative ways to use economic development tools to retain established businesses and lure new ones. The manual contains practical examples of how various economic development tools have been used in projects throughout the state. I hope that the Ohio Economic Development Manual is a useful reference as we work together to foster the growth of the state’s high-performance economy in the 21st century. Very respectfully yours, Mike DeWine Ohio Attorney General About this Manual The Ohio Economic Development Manual is a legal primer on economic development in Ohio. It provides readers with the legal foundation for many of the State’s most useful and powerful economic development tools. It was developed as a resource for economic development professionals, business owners, elected officials, and other interested persons. This manual addresses some of the biggest issues in economic development, covering everything from the constitutional authority for economic development to the specific incentives themselves.
