Typical Commercial Kilowatt Usage: 6.51 KwHour/sfTypical Residential Kilowatt Usage: 8.8 KwHour/sf
Total Power Required of Site: 20,000,000 MKwHourTotal Commercial SF: 40%: sf x 20,000 MkwHour = 8,000 Mkw/HourTotal Residential SF: 60%: sf x 20,000 MkwHour = 12,000 Mkw/Hour
Total sf of Roofing with Solar PV: 318,900 SF = 29,626 M^2 * 3.4 kW/M^2/Day (Average Insolation Value) = 100,728.4 * .20 (20 % efficient Solar) = 7,353 Mkw/Hour = 33% of energy is Solar.
Wind Power Generates: 1.5 Mkw per Turbine * (7) = 10.5 Mkw/HourTotal Renewable Power: 7,363 Mkw/Hour = 7,363 Mkw/Hour/20,000 Mkw/ Hour = 36%
Because Renewable Accounts for around a 1/3 of Energy the project proposes to ex-ploit Higher R Value Insulation, using either VIP (vacuum Insulation Panel R35) or Aero-gel (R35) which may offset by 5%. The project strives for the Vertical Gardens to not be conditioned by exploiting light in summer and winters. Along with Exploiting Ground Source Heat Pump, the Project strives to reduce energy bills by 5% creating a 46% en-ergy reduction.
