SGIPce User Guide 9.3 Manual Changes to Inputs There are other inputs that can be changed, but no formal method of changing them has been developed. As the user looks through the comments made above they will see more closely the structure of the model and how the inputs are stored. This section discusses a few potential inputs that might be of interest to the user for further analysis. The section will show the user how to manually make changes to a few of these inputs. As the user discovers more of these inputs it may be desirable to more formally develop a method to change inputs as part of the scenario runs. Requests for these changes should be forwarded to the CPUC for evaluation and possible inclusion into future versions of this software. One example of a possible concept that must be manually changed has to do with sites that use on-site biogas. This change along with other inputs are discussed next. 9.3.1 On-site Biogas (OSBG) SGIPce is set up to handle the capital costs and CO2 benefits for on-site biogas (OSBG) projects in two distinct ways, depending on the size of the project. OSBG-powered projects greater than 500 kW in size are assumed to be associated with facilities where biogas is already captured. Examples include landfills and waste water treatment facilities. These facilities are required by environmental and safety regulations to capture and flare methane generated at the site. In these instances, SGIPce does not allocate capital costs to a biogas digestion system as these systems are assumed to already be in place. Additionally, SGIPce does not allocate CO2 benefits associated with capture of methane in these projects as the biogas is assumed to be flared. As such, the power generation project cannot be credited with capturing methane that is already being captured and sent to a flare as a “baseline” condition. For OSBG-powered projects equal to or smaller than 500 kW we have assumed they are associated with facilities where biogas is not already captured. Dairies are a good example of this type of facility. Unlike landfills and waste water treatment facilities, dairies are not currently required to capture and treat the biogas produced from open lagoons. As a result, the methane contained in the biogas is vented to the atmosphere, thereby acting as a potent greenhouse gas. Consequently, OSBG-powered projects for these smaller facilities incur the cost of installing a digester system in order to capture the biogas that can then be used to power the electricity generator. Similarly, these facilities are credited with CO2 benefits associated with capture of methane. In these cases, SGIPce allocates the project with the increased capital cost associated with the biogas digester system but also allocates the project with the resulting CO2 benefits. The way this is implemented in the system is through a toggle in the technology workbooks. In the technology workbooks with the suffix _OSBGas the user can find a field on the Constants tab labeled “Is this technology installed at a Dairy”. This field is set to Yes if the technology is to be Itron, Inc. 9-7 How To Change ItPDF Image | Cost-Effectiveness of Distributed Generation Technologies
