  1. All Electric Island Concept

    Graham Brennan Transport & Ocean R&D Programme Manager Promoting RE in Local Communities 12th March 2014
  2. Overview Aran Islands Energy Snap Shot All Electric Wind/Ocean Concept Aran EV Trial – Confirming Energy Balances Better Energy Communities Scheme
  3. Energy Snap Shot of Aran Islands 1,500 Tonnes of Oil Equivalent 62% Heat (% coal, kerosene) 25% Electricity 13% Transport (8,400km av) 1.2mEuro Energy Bill for Islands pa Renewable Energy Resources Wind Max Capacity = 3MW 675kW wind farm on InisMeain Special Area of Conservation Wave 17.5MW within 5km (3MW!) Tidal Current speed <2m/s so tidal energy not viable 3MW Cable
  4. Combined Primary Energy Profiles
  5. All Electric Aran Island Energy System
  6. intermittent renewables 10-G-0001 Smart Hybrid Energy System with Energy Storage energy storage reserve energy
  7. Primary Energy Consumption and Energy Efficiency Scenario (No 2)
  8. All Electric System – Primary Energy Increasing Electrification
  9. Conclusions of Study Energy Efficiency Energy Efficiency & 100% Electrification of Transport & Heat reduces Primary Energy consumption by 65% Energy Import – Net Zero High volume of Energy Storage means local Wind/Ocean can now supply 70% of this Demand Therefore Energy Imports reduce by 90%!! 3MW Cable
  10. Aran Islands EV Demonstration Project
  11. The Car – Mega ECity 220mpg or 1.3Litres/100km Annual Elect = 90-180 Euro Up to 80% fuel cost saving Range = 60km (max length of Inis Mór = 15km, speed limit 50kph) Max speed = 60kph Aluminium Chassis and ABS Panels – low corrosion Regenerative Brakes – reduced brake wear, high efficiency Minimum parts count Charging at home - not dependent on boat supplies
  12. Aran Islands EV Trial – Evidence for High Renewable Energy Potential in Transport EV Trial on Aran Islands 8 Vehicles for 3 Years Aluminium chassis with Regenerative Brakes Year 1 Results of Trial 18.5% of Vehicle Energy supplied by Wind Energy in 2011 (compares with 6% Biofuels Obligation for 2013) Average Fuel Cost savings of 78% achieved against comparable diesel (Citroen C1) 3:1 Energy Import reduction for Transport wrt diesel cars
  13. Better Energy Communities Scheme
  14. Better Energy Communities 2012 / 2013
