Shading modeling using LIDAR/ GIS for the purpose of greening the city grid of Kingston, ON, Canada
The following outline is going to be updated so as to suit the title.
Chapter 1
What is a distributed energy system? Benefits of such a system for cities in Canada (drawn from as many available and applicable locations as possible e.g. a city in Ontario vs. a First Nation community in Nunavut)
Chapter 2
Background in solar energy measurement Solar energy potential for Southeastern Ontario
Chapter 3
Background on integrating PV in urban area
Rae et al (1999): Estimating the uptake of distributed energy in an urban setting
Ayoub, Dignard-Bailey and Fillion (2000): Photovoltaics for buildings: Opportunities for Canada
Chapter 4
Solar energy potential for buidings (owned by the city of Kingston - part I of the internship and extrapolated from Lindsay's paper from the summer of 2009)
Chapter 5
Integration of solar energy into the city grid (essentially part II of the internship)
Chapter 6
The economic and social dimension of the project The degree of decentralization afforded by the city grid
Chapter 7
If combined with ground mounted PV, what is the per capita solar footprint for Kingston/ Southern Ontario? How does this project improve the sustainability of the city Lessons/ experience for other cities in Ontario/ Canada
