 | | The Tellus study describes itself as the first regionwide efficiency/renewables assessment since the Council's 1998 power/conservation plan, which incorporated much of its data and analysis from earlier in the 1990s. |
 | | The Tellus study examined prospective wind, biomass and geothermal resources, "which are likely to be the most abundant, cost-competitive resources for large-scale grid applications in the region during the timeframe of this analysis." Solar photovoltaics, small wind, fuel cells and other distributed renewable technologies were excluded from the study. |
 | | Tellus projected a 20 percent share by that date (of the envisioned reduced demand) and came up with 2,512 aMW of new wind, 1,221 aMW of new biomass and 191 aMW of new geothermal. |
