12 Job No. 2669.01 Water Systems Alternative Energy Feasibility Study <br />In the evaluation of hydro turbines to make electricity from the excess pressure, this suggests that the efficiency <br />at this design flow is important, but the partial flow efficiency is not critical. <br />The monetary benefits for this project will be calculated according to the SCE rate schedules that are used for <br />each account. When a unit operated, say 23% of the hours in a month, it will be assumed that this implies it <br />operates 23% of the On Peak hours, 23% of the Mid Peak hours and 23% of the Off Peak hours. A demand <br />savings for a given month is only be included if the unit operates at least 95% of the hours that month to keep <br />the savings fairly conservative. <br />The historical flow data is converted into anticipated full load operating hours per month for each MWD <br />connection in the following table. <br />Calculated Operating Hours <br />Operating Capacity <br />MWD SA-1 <br />Connection <br />per Month <br />SA-2 <br />at Normal <br />SA-3 <br />SA-4 <br />SA-5 <br />SA-6 <br />SA-7 <br />Total <br />Jan-17 <br />0 <br />- <br />0 <br />- <br />- <br />56 <br />89 <br />145 <br />Feb-17 <br />157 <br />- <br />83 <br />- <br />- <br />323 <br />307 <br />870 <br />Mar-17 <br />186 <br />- <br />199 <br />- <br />- <br />383 <br />- <br />768 <br />Apr-17 <br />678 <br />- <br />228 <br />- <br />- <br />586 <br />126 <br />1,619 <br />May-17 <br />726 <br />- <br />321 <br />- <br />- <br />497 <br />- <br />1,544 <br />Jun-17 <br />495 <br />- <br />319 <br />- <br />- <br />502 <br />173 <br />1,489 <br />Jul-17 <br />746 <br />- <br />350 <br />- <br />- <br />497 <br />- <br />1,593 <br />Aug-17 <br />745 <br />- <br />267 <br />320 <br />- <br />616 <br />- <br />1,948 <br />Sep-17 <br />721 <br />- <br />338 <br />617 <br />- <br />730 <br />5 <br />2,410 <br />Oct-17 <br />734 <br />- <br />606 <br />417 <br />- <br />750 <br />11 <br />2,517 <br />Nov-17 <br />713 <br />- <br />673 <br />- <br />- <br />481 <br />- <br />1,867 <br />Dec-17 <br />745 <br />- <br />684 <br />- <br />- <br />495 <br />- <br />1,924 <br />Total <br />6,645 <br />- <br />4,068 <br />1,353 <br />- <br />1 5,915 <br />712 <br />The following table shows the total water flow in 2017 by connection point. Note that three connection points, <br />SA-1, SA-3 and SA-6 represent 91% of all the MWD flow for the year. These three stations will be investigated <br />for the potential to generate power from this water flow. <br />SA-1 <br />191,384,600 <br />31% <br />SA-2 <br />- <br />0% <br />SA-3 <br />117,157,800 <br />19 <br />SA-4 <br />36,531,300 <br />6% <br />SA-5 <br />- <br />0% <br />SA-6 <br />255,544,800 <br />41% <br />SA-7 <br />19,225,600 <br />3% <br />Total <br />619,844,100 <br />100% <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA Newcomb I Anderson I McCormick <br />PREVIEW Date: Nov 03, 2021 Workspace ID: WS00800354 Funding Opportunity Number: R22AS00023 <br />
