Introduction
Airport facility (A) operated by State
agency (B)
Undergoing a full renovation
Environmental state mandates + own
sustainability plan
Economic analysis concerning:
Lighting
Vertical wind turbines
Solar panels
EMGT-6225
Economic Decision Making - Project

Scope
Economic analysis
Using record data and manufacture
technical data
Investment alternatives to be considered
mutually exclusive

EMGT-6225
Economic Decision Making - Project

Assumptions
12Mph wind speed average is considered
as an annual constant
Solar panels are installed at most
efficient angle
Shipping, Installation included in initial
investment
MARR = 5%, or 10% for finance options
composed of:
Expected rate of inflation 5%
Traditional inflation-free rate of
interest for risk-free loans 3% - 5%
Maintenance is negligible

Qualitative
considerations
Wont be quantified until a detailed
design is done
Size implications of different turbines
Quantity implications of different
turbines
Angle of the panels (engineering
considerations)
These are not good investments (were
looking for the option that costs us least
(
Cost shipping and installation has been
factored into the initial investment cost.
LED has to be replaced more often
HID fixtures need to be replaced often?
