Wind with solar energy in Canada?

Posted on January 19, 2010 by admin

Hi
I am doing a project about a renewable energy.well my topic is BioOli energy (it is a fuel). anyway i am discussing this type of energy and its feasibility in Peace Region of BC with a 230 kV transmission main nearby and how likely it is to feed this energy to a network grid……to sum it up, I have completed all my research and stuff, however, the only part i am stuck at is that i have to compare this with other suitable types of renewable technologies like solar and wind in that area. This should include comparison of the maintenance/installation costs, and systems’ efficiency.

I appreciate if any one, who is familiar with this types of energy source in Peace Region of BC, could help me.

B.C. has alot of hydro-eletric dams to you might want to examine these too. Not really sure about wind power up there. You might want to do some research on the wind fields in southern Alberta (im sure there has been cost analysis done on these.) I don’t think solar power is very feasible up there, with the long, dark, cloudy winters.
