Summary:
The analysis will be done on a data set that covers at least the time interval from October 2014 to November 2015. The following steps are proposed:
1. Pre-process of data: data quality, identification of outliers, missing data, faulty sensors.
2. Development of a working good data file.
3. Identification of the pattern of energy use such as the hourly, daily and monthly profiles.
4. Develo...

The objective of this wind monitoring proposal is to measure the wind energy potential at the Inuvik high point (approximately 6 km northeast of the Inuvik airport) for two years. This is part of an alternative energy study for the Inuvik area. Wind data will be collected using instruments on a wind tower that will be installed at the site. Two full years of wind measurements and an economic analy...

Summary:
Objectives are to:
1. Design and test zero-head hydro-electric turbines under low flow, i.e. less than 1 m/sec velocity, for the purpose of utilizing locally available renewable hydro resources;
2. Solar/Hydrogen fuel cell testing;
3. Evaluate the feasibility of an NWT-based commercial venture to manufacture and sell these turbines, and/or integrated energy systems.
In rivers where ther...
