• Community engagement and equity <br /> • Collaboration <br /> • Economic development <br /> Solar Initiatives -Action Items <br /> • Receive information <br /> • Permission to continue to develop pilot solar photovoltaic system <br /> • Permission to include pilot in 2015 Solarize Orange County Campaign <br /> Next Steps <br /> • Pursue investors <br /> • Develop agreement <br /> • Install pilot system <br /> • Manage <br /> • Assess and repeat elsewhere <br /> If the Board agreed with the Manager's recommendation, staff would move forward with <br /> the solar pilot project as a part of the 2015 Orange County "Solarize" campaigns, pursue both <br /> solar investors and development partners through the appropriate statutory procurement <br /> processes, and provide ongoing progress reports to the Board. Staff projects that the initial <br /> pilot project will be completed and operational no later than December of 2015, and that this <br /> could be the first of many facility photovoltaic solar systems providing renewable energy in lieu <br /> of less sustainable energy sources. <br /> Commissioner Price asked if the Tesla Powerwall will be a part of this process. <br /> Brennan Bouma said the Tesla Powerwall just came out last week, and the <br /> presentation is just a broad update. <br /> Commissioner Price asked if the size of the Powerwall is known. <br /> Brennan Bouma said the PowerPoint shows a picture of two of the cells, side by side. <br /> He said up to nine cells can be stacked, side by side. He said it is about 7 inches thick by 2 to <br /> 3 feet tall, and is meant to hang on the wall. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs said in the CIP, FY2017-2018 has a generator for the Rogers <br /> Road Community Center for $50,000. He said there is a total of$400,000 in the CIP for <br /> generators, over the years. He said it seems unwise to keep investing in generators when <br /> they will soon hopefully be obsolete. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs said by the time FY 2017-2018 arrives, he would like to <br /> incorporate solar batteries instead of a generator. He said he would also like for staff to look <br /> at alternative options within the realm of solar energy for the funds intended for generators. <br /> Commissioner Rich asked if there could be clarification about how the panels would go <br /> on the roof of the RRCC, and where the battery would be placed inside the building. <br /> Brennan Bouma said, in regards to Commissioner Jacobs' comment, he would like to <br /> consult the expert team regarding the possibility of solar battery back-ups in the future. He <br /> said energy storage has been discussed and the costs of it are falling dramatically. <br /> Brennan Bouma said the project could move forward in two ways: <br /> 1. Energy generated by the sun can be sold directly to the Utility Company. He said the <br /> current rate for that energy is about 4 cents per kilowatt hour. <br /> 2. Net metering, where a separate meter is on the solar panels that keeps a tally <br /> throughout the year and displaces the costs seen on energy bills. <br /> Brennan Bouma said the second option is what is mostly being considered in Orange <br /> County. He said this is about 8 to 10 cents per kilowatt hour. <br />
