Impacts of Array Configuration on Land-Use Requirements for Large-Scale Photovoltaic Deployment in the United States: Preprint

Conference Denholm, P ; Margolis, R M

Land use is often cited as an important issue for renewable energy technologies. In this paper we examine the relationship between land-use requirements for large-scale photovoltaic (PV) deployment in the U.S. and PV-array configuration. We estimate the per capita land requirements for solar PV and find that array configuration is a stronger driver of energy density than regional variations in solar insolation. When deployed horizontally, the PV land area needed to meet 100% of an average U.S. citizen's electricity demand is about 100 m2. This requirement roughly doubles to about 200 m2 when using 1-axis tracking arrays. By comparing thesemore »« less

Identification of subsurface structure in United States Gulf Coast using remote-sensing imagery

Conference Walker, D A - AAPG Bulletin (American Association of Petroleum Geologists); (USA)

Interpretation of remote-sensing imagery can identify surface indications of deep subsurface structures in the US Gulf Coast. Structural growth can cause subtle changes in surface geology, topography, drainage patterns, vegetation, and soil moisture that are identifiable with Multispectral Scanner (MSS) Landsat and National High Altitude Photography Program (NHAP) images. Structural growth associated with salt diapirs, listric normal faults, and rollover anticlines has been identified in southeast Texas and southwest Louisiana with remote-sensing imagery. Interactive computer manipulation effectively enhances such imagery. It enables the accurate integration of surface and subsurface data. By stacking geographically correlated data, explorationists can examine anomalous featuresmore »« less
