We reached the cap for the utility where we work for renewable energy interconnection until there is Rhode Island State legislative action to raise the cap. I am going through the utility records as they are not completely accurate. Does anyone know of a reference that can point to what percentage of dc capacity actually comes out as ac power. Looking at various inefficiencies and the battery load, I am estimating about a 15% "loss". I realize a lot depends upon the design, and the state of the batteries, but I am just looking for sounding board opinions, or a reference if available. Thank you, Chris _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
