Grid-connected integrated community energy system. Phase II, Stage 1 final report. Finance plan and institutional analysis
Notification has been received that gas will be very limited at the Minneapolis Campus Heating Plant after 1978. Therefore in order to extend the coal firing capability (with oil as standby fuel) at this plant while maintaining stack emission levels in compliance with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's requirements, the installation of bag filters on the boilers indicated is required. Further, in order to eliminate the need for utilizing oil, a ''critical'' fuel, as the standby fuel at the Minneapolis Campus Heating Plant, it will be necessary to acquire and convert the Southeast generating plant. The funding that would be followed for the University of Minnesota Grid-ICES are identified. After the University's review of its draft Stage 1 report, DOE requested additional resolution of Stage 1 issues. In particular the University was to resolve the following: a firm financial plan with an opinion from a competent authority on financing; and consideration of using the by-product electricity internally with the excess electricity sold to Northern States Power Company to make the project economically viable. This volume presents the University's resolution to these issues. (MCW)
