Time to Replace Petroleum An OTEC Solution for sustainable electrical power in Hawaii
Agenda 1. Introductions 2. Today’s Energy Challenges 3. The OTEC Power Solution 4. Pure Hydrogen via OTEC
Hawaii’s Challenges Oil & Energy Impacts Hurdles Resolve • CO2gas • Emissions • Ecosystems • Water • Air quality • Economic • Growth • Funding • Innovation • Regulation • Efficiency • Technology • Consensus • Legislation • Motivation • Cooperation • Incentive • Resolution • Dependence • Escalating • Price • Disruption • Volatility
SOLUTION • OTEC Power • Big Island Co-Op • HB3222 • Credit Based Funding • Strategic Alliance • 18CFR Part 292 & 210 of the Public Utility Policy Act 1978
The Process • The Platform Group • Build, own, operate • Sell Power • To Co-Op at cost • Excess power to HECO at avoided cost • Hawaii Mandate – hydro-trans policy • New Hydrogen Corp Formed • Production, Storage Delivery of Hydrogen – OTEC power for production • Lease funding for buses and cars
OTEC Energy Cycle Sustainable Energy Legislation Power Agreements Produce Hydrogen The OTEC Project OTEC Delivery Retire Oil plants
The Innovation of Enabling Technologies 1984 - Dr. Alfred A. Yee develops the Concrete Island Drilling System (CIDS) platform, utilizing reinforced concrete in a honeycomb structure 1991 - Float, Inc. develops the Pneumatically Stabilized Platform (PSP) 1985-1995 - Dr. Hans Krock and his associates at OCEES International, Inc. and their corporate partners developed patents and proprietary information for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion 2004 - Offshore Ports facilitates the integration of the CIDS and PSP technologies for the creation of large floating structures and ocean real estate
Credit Based Financing • 100% Debit Financing Utilizing Credit of Off-Take Partner, Co-Op, Investor Group • Irrevocable Cash Collateral Pledge • Specialized Performance Based Insurance • Balance Sheet Neutral • 5 M Upwards 25 Year Project Life
Ingredients for Success OTEC Technology HECO Partnership Funding/ Insurance Government Partnership Co-Op Partners PSP Technology
