You want to buy electric energy. You can buy from company A, B, C, or D,but you must choose only one. You obtain past data on these four suppliers, and you then determinethat the prices for some of them have been quite volatile, influenced by the state of the economy(recession, stagnation, and inflation). You assess this data given in the table below. Assuming that you simply want to minimize your average costs over the long run, determine theexpected costs for all energy suppliers. Select the supplier based on minimum expected cost.
How can you optimize the usage of electricity at home wherein, you can still enjoy the convenience of the device/appliance but at the same time, save electric energy consumption?
How much electrical energy can be produced in a year by a conventional electrical power plant of 100 MW if the power plant functioned 80% of the time (the rest being spent on maintenance). If one small solar power plant with average W = 0.15 MWh/m2 per year is going to be built to replace that conventional electrical power plant, calculate how much area in km2 that needed?
Consider a gravity-driven LED bulb that provides 16 lumens of lighting. The device uses a 10-kg sandbag that is raised by human power to a 2-m height. For continuous lighting, the bag needs to be raised every 20 minutes. Using an efficacy of 150 lumens per watt for the LED bulb, determine (a) the velocity of the sandbag as it descends and (b) the overall efficiency of the device.

Its lifetime is 20 years. a) Determine the total energy consumed during the production of the module. b) Calculate the energy yield ratio of the PV module over its lifetime of 20 years. c) What is the energy payback period of the PV module?
e newly appointed Government of a small island, depend on the import of fossil fuels to produce electricity, has the desire to invest in one or two renewable energy technologies. The advantage of the island is the number of different renewable energy potentials. The cost of electricity on the island is $0.39 kWh. 1) Using solar radiation photovoltaic technologies, it was estimated that 500 rooftops, with a total surface area of 456 000 m2 , will be available to install the photovoltaic panels. Assume that the solar panels actually cover 90% of the available surface area. Given, the size of a standard photovoltaic cell is 156 mm by 156 mm and for a silicon photovoltaic cell, each PV cell produces a current of 2.5 A at a voltage of 0.5 V. The average daily irradiance for the island is 185 W/m2 . Assume the initial capacity expenditure evaluated on a year basis of the photovoltaic system, that covers, 90% of the available surface area is US $600 000 and the annual operating cost is US $5…
At 6 AM today, you purchased 1 MW of electricity contract for 12 PM at a price of 100 pounds/MWh. Two hours later, the forecast for solar generation for 12 PM has changed from 4 GW to 4.5 GW. The market is currently bid at 95 pounds/MWh and offered at 105 pounds/MWh. What would you do, and why? Please answer logically, stating all assumptions.
