1. Use the CES Low Carbon Power database to make a bar chart with the energy payback time on the y-axis for power systems that do not burn fossil or nuclear fuels. How many years on average would it take a Solar Power—PV, single crystal power plant to payback its energy of construction?
2. Use the CES Low Carbon Power database to plot a bar chart of Area Intensity. Which power system uses the most land area to generate 1 kW of actual delivered power? (Remember to divide the Area intensity by the Capacity factor (%/100).
