Shading. The design is based on existing visual conditions on site. Removal of trees or other obstructions to install the solar arrays and system components is included as reflected in the Tier 1 array layouts. Trees and/or other obstructions identified for removal or trimming by Customer must be removed or trimmed prior to substantial completion or performance expectations/guarantees will require adjustment which will be handled as a change to the contract. At Substantial Completion an as-built shade study and performance simulation will be completed to ensure accuracy of initial shading assumptions.
Shading. For south-facing windows, at least 50% of the window needs to be shaded by June 21.
Shading. Bridges or ferry ramps would partially shade littoral areas, reducing primary productivity and possibly limiting the distribution of some algae, while extending the distribution of other taxa. Examples of the effects of partial shading on steeply sloped rocky intertidal areas were reported at Stations PEN-4 and PEN-4A (see Phase II Marine Reconnaissance Survey; Pentec, 2001), where the middle and upper intertidal elevations were relatively devoid of macroalgae. However, below MLLW (and out from under the influence of overhanging trees), a typically lush kelp-dominated flora was found. The presence of over-water structures (bridges, causeways, and ferry docks) might partially shade portions of the adjacent beach and subtidal bottom areas. The area under a dock or causeway would likely receive full- time shade, whereas the area under an elevated bridge section would not, because the shadow cast by structures high above the water would move across the water as the sun traversed the sky. Because the upper limits of many intertidal species, including eelgrass, are set by the degree of desiccation experienced (shading would reduce desiccation) shading by project structures would allow some species to extend their ranges upslope. However, since lower limits of vegetative growth are set by light level, net loss of eelgrass or kelp productivity would result from the project if deeper portions of beds were shaded. If this occurred, eelgrass or kelp bed habitat area would be incrementally reduced, reducing the area of refuge and rearing for juvenile salmonids during their migrations as well as for other aquatic organisms such as Dungeness crabs. Reduced eelgrass productivity would also decrease the eelgrass blade area available to support epiphytic crustaceans, which are an important food source for juvenile salmon.
Shading. For the arrangement of the Radiants on the ground, the Studies & Research Office of Ecoware has concluded that the best available position on the ground is that resulting from the following formula: File: R.01 - Technical report - Radiant 36 - Xxxxxxxxxx Project for a photovoltaic power plant equal to 734.40 kWp
Shading. Mounting a cooler in the shade or the sun makes little difference as to temperature of the air produced by the cooler. However, placing the cooler in the shade will deny algae the sunlight it requires to grow and may extend the life of your pads.
Shading. Offeror shall avoid excessive shading on modules to the extent possible. Where shading losses are encountered, Offeror shall perform a shading analysis justifying the basis for their design, including any proposed tree removal, and explaining why shading does not create an adverse performance and/or economic impact.
Shading. Contractor shall adhere to the following requirements in order to avoid excessive shading on modules. For any object near an array that is higher than the lowest point of that array by height H, Contractor shall locate the array farther from the object than: 3H to the North of the object 3H to the East or West of the object 3H to any non-cardinal direction of the object Any Contractor whose system design does not adhere to these rules shall perform a shading analysis justifying the basis for their design, including any proposed tree removal, and explaining why shading does not create an adverse performance and/or economic impact. Any trees that are in the footprint of systems to be installed by the Contractor shall be removed by the Contractor at their expense, subject to the approval of the City. A tree shall be considered to be in the footprint of a system if its canopy would extend over any part of the system, including structural components or modules. The City will remove or prune, at its discretion, trees planted outside of the Work area that shade PV systems (at present time or in the foreseeable future), provided the Contractor identifies these trees during the design process. The Contractor shall be responsible for any required tree remediation efforts resulting from tree removal that is deemed the Contractor’s responsibility. The Contractor shall review as part of the RFP response, and provide a formal assessment and feedback to the City at the Design Development phase as described in “System Design”, Design Review Process/Phases, Design Development section above in this Scope of Work and Design Specifications. Warranties
Shading. Continuous horizontal window shading shall be provided on the exterior above the windows as appropriate, and color of the material should be consistent with the simple, monolithic building style.
Shading. Each System’s output expectations are based on current site conditions. Introducing new shade onto the solar modules will have a negative impact on performance. Design-Builder will not be responsible for loss of production due to shade that is introduced after the System has been installed. Building alterations, new structures, satellite dishes and new tree growth are examples of objects that cause shade if placed in close proximity to the solar array. With the exception of managing vegetation that affects the performance of any ground-based System, which is the Design-Builder’s responsibility per the terms of the O&M Agreement, the District is responsible for maintaining the current site conditions or notifying Design-Builder of any new shading at which time Design-Builder will incorporate new shading into a revised SETMC, which will have a corresponding effect on the SEAMC.
