Focus
• Wind-diesel hybrid systems
• Integration of large wind on islanded grids
• Impacts of offshore wind on island communities
![Page 9: Chris Rose Executive Director Renewable Energy Alaska Project … · 2017. 7. 12. · Renewable Energy Alaska Project (REAP) IGRC Introductory Webinar December 10, 2014. ... •Alaska](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051812/602a93439911bb22ed5070b8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
We can help:
Put you in touch with technical experts, developers, manufacturers and policy makers as well as case studies and reports on islanded grid systems
Provide opportunities for you to meet with others working on islanded grid systems
We don’t provide funding for projects, but we can help direct you to potential resources

• Many of America’s islanded grids
are completely dependent on
diesel for electricity generation
• An estimated 5% of global oil
production today is used to make
electricity
The Situation Today

Large Islanded Grids
• Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands all either have, or could have, large wind turbines on grids that have a relatively finite capacity to absorb variable power.

Kodiak
• A very successful example of large wind on a small grid.
• Wind – diesel – hydro –battery – (flywheel)
• 99.4% renewable
