Enhancing Park Sustainability through Renewable Energy Solutions and Funding Strategies

This estimate outlines the potential for integrating renewable energy solutions in various parks, with a focus on funding strategies to improve energy efficiency and conservation. The estimate, conducted by Randy Farley in 2005, emphasizes the importance of reducing energy consumption through solar power installations in visitor centers and other park facilities. The case study from Point Reyes National Seashore exemplifies successful financial management and collaboration, illustrating how parks can leverage grants and rebates to implement sustainable energy solutions effectively, fostering climate-friendly environments.

  3. MAJOR CONCEPTS • Whatever happens uses power, fuel, or water • Whatever is planned, uses power, fuel, or water • Be careful, power, fuel, or water may be consumed without a park employee!

  4. More BTUs are used in vehicles than in facilities

  5. Emission control successes: stationary sources Off-grid sites Diesel Solar SOLAR Yosemite – Wolf Creek/Crane Flat Mt. Rainier – Sunrise Lassen – Drakesbad Alcatraz Pinnacles Joshua Tree – Cottonwood Mt. Rainier – White River Mojave – Hole-in-the-wall Pinnacles Joshua Tree – Cottonwood Mt. Rainier – White River Mojave – Hole-in-the-wall

  6. A TRUE STORY • The following events involved • A real NPS unit (Point Reyes NS) • A real maintenance staff • A real contracting officer • A real contractor • A real utility • An Interagency Agreement • A GSA Areawide Utility Agreement

  7. Add PV to your Visitor Center Grid-tied, designed for power and double financial benefits

  8. Add PV to a Science Center Grid-tied, designed for power and financial benefits

  9. Add PV to an Office Building Grid-tied, designed for power and financial benefits

  10. Add PV to an Education Center Grid-tied, and designed for power and financial benefits

  11. Magic • Appropriated Funds = $100,000 • Actual Cost (all 4) = $140,000 • Rebate for PV = $70,000 • Final Cost to Park = $70,000 • Leaving $30,000 to fund another PV project! Magic makes #5! This Is a True Story

  12. Making Magic Happen – Part Two : Renewable Energy Credits

  13. YOU HAVE THE POWER
