Technical Guidance for Evaluating Selected Solar Technologies on Airports Federal Aviation AdministrationOffice of Airports Office of Airport Planning and ProgrammingAirport Planning and Environmental Division (APP-400)800 Independence Avenue, SWWashington, DC 20591 November 2010 Federal Resources Chapter 5THE FEDERAL ROLE IN AIRPORT SOLAR DEVELOPMENT

  21. Findings on Federal Resources • U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is lead agency • Several Executive Orders on Energy Management and Sustainability • FAA Flight Standards Interagency Solar Group • FAA Airports • AIP and PFC Programs • Building design eligibility • 10 AIP Sustainability Pilot Projects • VALE Program offers limited eligibility for stand-alone projects

  22. Albuquerque Airport owned, parking garage roof-top Phase I (146 kW); Phase II (438 kW)

  23. Guidance Recommendations • More R&D on solar reflectivity and communications interference, including measurement standards, analysis requirements, and assessment tools • Development of a supplemental 7460 form for solar • Development of a Catex for small solar projects • Benefit-cost analysis of solar technologies and airport site designs
