  1. SOLAR IMPACT ON FYI Kevin Meikle, Architect Airports Planning Manager 4995 E. Clinton Way Fresno, Ca 93727 (559) 621-4536 kevin.meikle@fresno.gov

  2. Rental Car Facility Consolidated QTA – Increased Efficiency

  3. Rental Car Ready and Return No Busing, Solar-Ready, & Increased Customer Service

  4. Nation’s Largest Airport Solar Farm 58% of FYI Energy Demand

  5. Overview • 4.2 MW Hours Per Year Production • Online June 15, 2008 • Operating at Full Capacity • 11,700 panels totaling 2.4 MW • Twenty (20) Acre Site • No Alternative Use • Over $19 Million in Projected Energy Savings Solar Project By the Numbers

  6. The Process • Research Delivery Opportunities • Minimal or No Airport Capitol = PPA • Provider Owns, Operates, Maintains System • Other Options Necessitated Airport Capitol • Evaluate Site Options • Best Use of Land • Engage FAA Solar Project Process

  7. Solar Project Process

  8. Solar Project Process

  9. The Process • Apply for CPUC Incentives • Through PG&E • Refundable Deposit • SGIP and CSI Programs • Generate RFP • Clear and Concise • Commitment to Project and Provide Project Schedule • On Street 4 weeks, Conduct a Pre-submittal Meeting • Not a Public Works Project Solar Project Process

  11. Solar Project Comparative Data

  12. Airport executes Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) • Fixed Price for 20 years • Reversionary Clause for Installed Equipment • Airport and World Water Participate in PG&E/CPUC Programs • 2006 Self-Generation Incentive Program • 2007 California Solar Initiative • 2006 SGIP • Fixed Price 20 years • $0.187 per KwH Guaranteed by PPA #1 • Projected Savings to Begin at year 7.5 (Actual at Year 2) • 2007 CSI • Fixed price 20 years • $0.1390 per KwH. Guaranteed by PPA #2 • Projected Savings to Begin at year 2.4 (Actual at Year 2) Solar Project Key Deal Points

  13. The Process • Contract Execution • PPA – Due Diligence • Board Approval • Environmental – NEPA/CEQA • Work With FAA on Appropriate NEPA Process • For Our Site – Biological and Cultural Resources Studies • CATEX – determined appropriate • Work with Local Body for Appropriate CEQA Process Solar Project Process
