This research paper assesses the feasibility of installing a photovoltaic system at Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii. The study begins with an analysis of the rooftop photovoltaic system installed in 2005 at Pearl Harbor Naval Station, Hawaii, which borders Hickam Air Force Base. The analysis identifies the feasibility criteria that Pearl Harbor's Energy Manager considered during project development, and reviews the performance of the array since its installation. Using the criteria and performance data from the Pearl Harbor project, the study then assesses the feasibility of implementing a similar system at Hickam. Hawaii's high electricity prices, sunny climate, and tax incentives for corporate investment in solar power combine to create one of the most favorable solar energy markets in the country. | Unearthing Hawaii's Energy Goldmine by Bradley E Bridges, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
