  5. Rationale • Wind • For the summer • Keeps the school cool • Solar • Don’t have to waste electricity • Heats the pool • Consumes electricity • Free • Geothermal • Heats the school • No heaters • Also to air condition the school

  6. Forms of energy in Ocean Ave • Takes sunlight and exchanges it for alternative energy • Saves energy and provides natural habitat for humans • Lighting will save money and provide no wasteful energy at the same time • Dual flush toilets, low flow sinks, which reduces water use by 50% • Solar Panels • Green roof • Energy Efficient lighting • Water efficiency

  7. Solar power Geothermal Wind

  8. Solar • Produced by collecting sunlight and converting it into electricity • Can be converted directly using photovoltaic's • Needs • Panels • Sun • Rationale • Heat the pool • Produce electricity • Locations • On the roof above the pool • On the whole roof • Converted/captured • Solar radiation • Energy to electricity

  9. Geothermal • Energy generated by heat stored under the Earth’s surface • Needs • Water • Steam • Rationale • To heat the school • Air conditioning • Electricity • Location • Heaters • Throughout the ceiling • Converted/captured • Heat from underground • Large amounts of electricity

  10. Wind • Caused by the uneven heating of the atmosphere of the sun • Needs • Wind • Wind turbines • Outside of the school • Used as an air condition for the school • Also can be used for electricity. • It will save $337,608

  11. Floor Plan • School will face east to get the whole days worth of sunshine

  12. Floor plan continued

  13. Recycling plan • There will be recycling trash cans in each classroom, and hallway • Different dumpsters placed outside for paper, bottles, cans, etc. • Placed in cafeteria • Use laptops, dry erase , or chalk pads for in class work • Scrap paper for class displays or projects • Reusable trays at lunch

  14. Conclusion • We think Ocean Avenue high school is a great school because it has a very green environment. Since a lot of our school is powered by alternative energy it makes the school a better place and it also would be less expensive. Having a green school is simple and cheaper so more schools should start to go green. We think our school would work because we have solar power and geothermal energy so if we ever need a back up there is one.
