WPAFB Peak-Shaving Generator Study

As part of a 5-year, $3.5M IDIQ contract with Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, AEC was tasked with conducting a peak-shaving study for the Air Force Research Laboratory. The purpose of this study was to investigate the needs of AFRL, examine the feasibility and costs of installing a new generator, provide probable maintenance and operating costs, compare the costs versus purchasing additional electric power from the local utility, and list any additional benefits of installing a new genset. The study also made a final recommendation for or against. This study also included a list of intangible benefits with some value assigned to them.
