Implementing a Block-level Microgrid: The Intersection of Utility Policy, People, Tech and Economics
No full textThis presentation, provided by the Building Efficiency for a Sustainable Tomorrow (BEST) Center, is from the BEST Center's 2023 Annual Institute. This presentation is about the Ecoblock research project and "... developing a prototype EcoBlock in order to demonstrate the social, legal, financial and technical feasibility of renovating a residential block with efficiency, electrification, and shared ownership of a community solar microgrid." This presentation covers "... the process of working with PG&E to design the microgrid, helping the block residents form a governance structure to co-own the systems, prioritizing efficient retrofits, and figuring out how to pay for it all."This video runs 33:11 minutes in length
Municipal Solid Waste-to-Energy: Traditional Ecology and Environmental Justice
No full textThe Bioenergy Research and Education Bridge Program (BRIDGES) creates case study curriculum. BRIDGES is "focused on topical, authentic case study scenarios in the bioenergy field." The cases studies explore "... solutions for a more secure energy future using bioenergy technologies while addressing cultural responsiveness and issues surrounding diversity."This case study, from the U.S. Department of Energy, introduces "the challenges of managing municipal solid waste, opportunities for turning these products into usable energy sources, and exciting careers in the bioenergy field." During the activity, students are introduced to the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation in Idaho. Students assume the role of a chemical engineer at Idaho National Laboratory and assist the Tribal Youth Council in finding sustainable waste management solutions. The activity is designed for high school, community college, technical institute, or university courses and can be taught in-person or online.A .zip file includes all case study materials, such as a fact sheet, instructor guide, and supplemental materials. Users may download the materials for one or all four case studies
