Introduction
TerraGreen founders and team has been involved in the renewable energy
industry for more than 15 yearsof time. During this period, we have seen
desires for neat, healthy and safer life were growing exponentially. Tons of
people now realize the need to embrace energy generations via renewable
energy resources. However, the current market scenario does not allow the
growth of renewable energy industry to take place rapidly, mainly due to
bottle-necks in the financial sector.
1
Given the rapid progress of fundamental research on efficient product
conversion, we look forward to adapt and improve the existing working
technology.
Managing resources is not a simple task and given the abysmal state of
waste resources management in most countries, TerraGreen will help model
an ideal system. For a foolproof system, effective decentralization and
robust micromanagement are the underpinning. This is where the
blockchain technology and several sub-programs offered by TerraGreen
Coin comes into the picture. Our goal is to create a truly sustainable, clean
community development around the world while directly allowing
consumers to directly participate in the renewable energy industry.

Global Waste – Solvable Problem
as a Renewable Energy Resource
However, if properly managed, the global waste can be of high value in terms
of renewable energy production. Figure 1, 2 and 3 below show the global
waste is an abundant renewable energy sources and conversion of waste to
renewable energy products such as electricity, heat, syngas, biofuels and
chemicals potentially reduces fossil fuel usage and GHG emissions.

Global Trends in Renewable
Energy & the Challenges
In the recent times, the renewable energy has been noticeably accepted as
a commercial alternative to fossil-fuel based energy production. The
transition to clean, renewable energy - away from fossil fuels is well
advancing with a tremendous range of developments as shown below:

Global energy demand from 2006 – 2017 (Source: Global Energy & CO2
Status Report 2017)
7
Agreement has already obtained the instruments of ratification,
acceptance, approval or accession from more than 55 7 countries who are
cumulatively responsible for 55% of the global greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions. This is expected to act as a catalyst for the renewable energy
projects.
8
Since the year 2014, the number of nations with sustainable energy targets
and policies has increased and made their targets more promising,
including those who set their renewable energy / electricity targets at 100%.
There are more than 170 countries that have sustainable power source
targets, and an expected amount of 150 countries have policies in favor of
sustainable power.
Fossil fuels who have dominated the energy generation for a decade long,
now see a decline and we can dependably foresee the future development
and potential of renewable energy. Additionally, renewable energy sources
such as biomass, wind and solar are also able to support decentralized,
mini grid and off-grid solutions. These can be utilized for powering remote
telecommunications, solar-powered irrigation kits and rural scale biomass
in many developing countries

Biomass gasification technology leads to production of producer gas
which in turn will be used in Fischer-Tropsch process to generate
biofuels.
c. Synthetic Natural Gas
e. Hydrogen Production
The biomass steam gasification process, coupled with syngas
purification, is used to produce pure hydrogen from biomass. A
hydrogen production at concentration of 99.99%-v can be achieved.
This increases the well-to-tank efficiency and contributes to a
sustainable energy portfolio.
f. Mixed Alcohols
Synthetic alcohols from biomass gasification technology can either
be used directly as fuels, added to fuels as octane-boosters or as
basic substance for the chemical industry.

plants, energy grid and distribution market to the end users. With the
integration of TerraGreen, Bigdata and Internet of Things (IOT) Apps with
TerraGreen decentralized App, the whole process of exchange of energy as
a basic layer of the digital energy world becomes transparent and
henceforth TerraGreen Coin will lead the global digitization of renewable
energy from waste material. TerraGreen platform shall contain data of the
renewable energy produced, exported, the energy price sold to the local
grid and the biomass waste supply chain management in a transparent
manner. Once a renewable energy producer is connected to TerraGreen
platform, their future renewable energy generations are converted into
digital currency based on energy unit of Joule. The value of One TerraGreen
Coin is equivalent to 10 MJ that will be produced and injected into the grid
& market at a certain time in the future. In this way, any renewable energy
producer is able to raise part of capital required to finance the renewable
energy project through selling of a portion of Joule that will be produced in
the future, on the Terra Green network, in a form of energy currency. This
energy currency could be purchased by investor or buyer and it is backed
by green energy asset and standardized smart contracts. Each energy
currency coin is based on smart contract that has the following information:
a. type of renewable energy products
b. type of biomass waste material
c. commercial operation date of renewable energy plants
d. equivalent MJ and price
TerraGreen platform, in addition to helping solve the current global
problem of biomass waste by innovation of renewable energy technology
and financing of the renewable energy projects, has the opportunity to
become the leading digital energy platform based on the principle of waste-
to-energy, carbon-neutrality, and decentralization of the industry. With the
combination of blockchain technology, Apps related to decentralization,
IOT and BigData, smart contract, biomass supply chain, state-of-the-art
technology and machine learning, TerraGreen platform shall be ready to be
develop into a virtual green energy company, fully self-managed and
decentralized. This will provide the possibility for waste-to-renewable
energy projects to be developed at a higher success rate, thus giving
substantial positive impact to climate change and environmental pollutions
caused by wastes generated from the activities of the human being.

TerraGreen Platform – Innovative Blockchain Algorithm
17
Types of Blockchain
The idea emerged that the Bitcoin blockchain could be in fact used for any
kind of value transaction or any kind of agreement such as P2P insurance, P2P
energy trading, P2P ride sharing, etc. The Terragreen project decided to create
their own blockchain, with very different properties than Bitcoin, decoupling
the layer from the core blockchain protocol, offering a radical new way to
create online markets and programmable transactions that are as following.
Public Blockchain
Public blockchains are just that, public. Anyone who wants to read, write, or
wish to connect a public blockchain can do so. Public chains are
decentralized meaning no one body has control over the network, ensuring
the data can’t be changed once if it is validated on the blockchain. It Simply
indicates, anyone, anywhere, can use a public blockchain to input
transactions and data as long as they are connected to the network
18
With the public blockchain technology used in terragreen, all the nodes
connected in the network can see the transaction of each other and the
entire activities taken by the individuals among the network.
Private Blockchain
Private blockchains can only be used by those who has been invited by the
network’s administrators. Users include companies that are seeking to
make investment in blockchain technology; for example, integration into
record keeping procedures without exposing sensitive data on the internet.
19
Centralized Blockchain
Centralized blockchains offer much more customized and control over the
network to the organization deploying it as they can decide who gets to
participate in the network. This signifies that not as much resources have
to be invested in competing to secure the network which makes Centralized
Blockchains more environment-friendly compared to their Decentralized
counterparts.
20
However, in a centralized network, only known and identified parties can
transact on the ledger. Therefore, their transactions can be audited.
21
Figure 11: Figure Representation of blocks as a chain
Each block also has a hash. This hash is a value generated from a string of
texts using a mathematical function. A hash can be compared to a
fingerprint, as because each hash is unique. Its major role is to identify a
block and the block’s contents too. Once a block is created, a hash is
calculated accordingly. Making changes inside the block causes the hash
to change. So, a hash too indicates changes to a block. Also, every block
contains a hash of the previous block. For instance, if there consists three
blocks in a blockchain, block 3 will contain the hash of block 2, and block 2
will contain the hash of block 1. If anyone make changes to the data in a
single block, the hash of that particular block changes, but it also makes
the whole chain as invalid. A hash is a tremendous tool for identifying
attempts to change data in blocks. Although, a hash algorithm alone is not
enough to ensure the security of a blockchain. To mitigate attempts to
corrupt the blockchain and to ensure security, blockchain technology also
uses a process called proof-of-work (POW).
22
SHA-384 Algorithm and its use
1. the initial hash value H (0) is based on the fractional parts of the square
roots of the ninth through sixteenth primes:
H (0) 1 = cbbb9d5dc1059ed8
H (0) 2 = 629a292a367cd507
H (0) 3 = 9159015a3070dd17
H (0) 4 = 152fecd8f70e5939
H (0) 5 = 67332667ffc00b31
H (0) 6 = 8eb44a8768581511
H (0) 7 = db0c2e0d64f98fa7

TerraGreen Business Model
Case
TerraGreen renewable energy business case will begin in South East Asian
Nations (ASEAN). This is because of the unique regulatory framework in the
form of feed-in-tariff (FiT) provided by most of the ASEAN countries. By
guaranteeing access to the grid and setting a favorable price per unit of
renewable energy, the FiT mechanism would ensure that renewable energy
becomes a viable and sound long-term investment for companies and
industries. There is already a memorandum of understanding signed by the
ASEAN energy ministers in 2007 covering the formation of ASEAN power
grid. The ongoing and proposed power grid interconnection projects
shown in Figure 3. The aim of the project is to interconnect ASEAN countries
in order to promote power trading and exchange across the South East
Asia.
25
There are three important factors of TerraGreen growth:
1. Energy production
2. Energy consumption
3. Market liquidity
TerraGreen network will grow with greater transparency and security to the
renewable energy market and delivering best value and experience to both
the energy producers and energy users directly. TerraGreen has secured
several renewable energy producers and the combined power generation
is more than 100MWe biomass power plants spanning across ASEAN
countries.

over the country, but large concentrated scale can be found in the Island
of Kalimantan, Sumatera, Irian Jaya and Sulawesi. The power generation
estimated from the about 150 million tonne of biomass residues produced
per year to be about 50 GW or equivalent to roughly 470 GJ per year. The
main source of biomass energy in Indonesia is rice residues with a technical
energy potential of 150 GJ per year. Other potential biomass sources are as
follows:
As shown in Figure 12, by 2040, renewables account for the largest share of
installed capacity (nearly 40%), but coal takes the most prominent role in
the generation mix (40%) and 70% of the new coal-fired capacity uses high
efficiency super critical or ultra-super critical technologies. Output
obtained from natural gas-fired plants rises by 60% in absolute terms, but
the share of gas in the power mix falls back from the current 43% to 28% by
2040. The large penetration of renewable and wider deployment of more
efficient coal-fired plants results in the carbon intensity of power sector
declining by almost one-fifth, but it remains significantly higher than the
world average.

2040 in ASEAN

TerraGreen shall initially target ASEAN market before entering into other
world markets. TerraGreen will play critical role in terms of facilitation of
investments into the renewable energy and trade of energy. This is done by
allowing a direct interaction between renewable energy producers and the
end user and/or investors globally. In this way, TerraGreen network acts as
a platform to help renewable energy producers to attract capital directly
from energy end users and/or investors.
The word energy crop plantations apply to softwood plantations that are
growing fast in their juvenile phase. Through intensive cultivation, this
property is utilized for the production of biomass that can be used for
renewable energy production. In this proposed project, Acacia mangium
has been identified as the principal species based on past experienced and
recommendation by forestry agencies. Acacia trees are renowned for their
robustness and adaptability, which make them good plantation species as
shown in Figure 1. It is a fast growing, nitrogenfixing tree, and has shown
adaptability to a wide range of environment conditions. It is also suitable
for rehabilitating difficult site such as tin-tailing areas.
Initially, through Special Purpose Vehicle company, 2,500 acres of land will
be acquired and planted with Acacia mangium species. Management
practices of Acacia mangium plantation for energy crop are similar to
practices adopted by forestry department of south east countries. In brief,
the management practices can be divided into four stages as follows:
i. Nursery
ii. Site Preparation
iii. Silvicultural Treatments & Harvesting
The thinning process are carried in stages. The first thinning (removal of
300 stems/ha) and second thinning (removal of 200 stems/ha) when the
average stand height is 10 m and 17 m are carried out about 2 years old and
about 4 to 5 years old, respectively. A final thinning of up to 200 stems/ha is
carried out when the average stand height is 25 m (about 8 to 9 years old)
leaving about 200 stems/ha for final harvesting at 15 years. The harvesting
of the whole trees is carried with following cycle:
32
th
c. On the 10 year – 400 trees (above 30 diameter)
The harvested energy crops will be used as fuels for renewable energy
plants in South East Asia.

TerraGreen Blockchain &
Apps Tools
Big data in general refer to collecting and storing large amounts of data in
order to extract useful information which enables smart and effective
decision making in real time and/or future. TGN-BD collects, stores vast
amount of data and suggests as well as initiates execution functions in
areas related but not limited to, process route optimization, supply chain
34
improvement, reliability and maintenance schedules, report assessment,
renewable energy growth projection, carbon foot-printing and carbon
offsetting, optimization of the energy production and distribution etc. The
key in renewable energy sector is not one of the specific data tool but using
a combination of several different data techniques. TerraGreen will actively
leverage different sources of renewable energy products. Even though
biomass waste could be used to generate different types of sustainable
green energy products, it comes with its own set problems. The problems
associated with sustainable energy have mostly involved with the type of
biomass feedstock and the distribution mechanism as well as the cost
involved. TerraGreen platform since holds tremendous amounts of
information but will be useful only when analyzed well. The integration of
blockchain SHA 384 along with TGN-BD helps improve decision-making
processes to target renewable growth. The following are four ways the Big
Data App support TerraGreen renewable energy plants:
One of the main advantages of big data is the optimization of the renewable
energy production and its distribution. In the past many renewable energy
projects have experienced intermittent or frequent energy production
disruptions due to unpredictable resources and unexpected supply chain
challenges. As a result, it becomes difficult for renewable energy plants to
operate at their maximum potential. However, the use of big data rapidly
changing this scenario. Historically, the biomass waste generations from
agricultural and forestry sectors have always collected data. With the use
of TGN-BD predictive analytics, and machine learning, this data can now be
combined with weather and satellite data. In short, the feedstock supply
availability and supply chain mechanism can be predicted well in advance,
allowing renewable energy plants to increase their production significantly.
Instead of increasing the number of gasification modular system, the idea
is to increase the efficiency and reliability of existing plant infrastructure
and thus, power plant owners no longer has to spend more money on the
additional infrastructure costs.
35
Streamline Operation & Maintenance Processes and Production
Distribution
The big data and predictive analysis technology can be used to control
many multi-layer process from the supply chain to operation &
maintenance of facilities and distribution of renewable energy products,
TerraGreen can ensure the production of more energy without yielding
additional infrastructure costs. This will also ensure the plant efficiency
always maintained at optimum level. The ability to extract useful
information from big data is one of the reasons behind the gradual decline
in the renewable energy prices in the world. In the next coming decade or
so, renewable energy will be a cost competent with its conventional
counterparts.
With big data tools, TerraGreen can forecast renewable energy generation
based on past performance, weather, and other parameters accurately. It
can also help determine the precise quantity of biomass waste required to
36
produce the desired output. Thus, TerraGreen big data can use make the
renewable energy projects highly profitable.
There are many challenges with renewable energy plants such biomass
waste availability, supply chain management, optimized process flow and
maximum production output etc. However, these variables highly fluctuate
depending on circumstances and external factors which are beyond
control. TGN-ADI rightfully address these challenges with a higher level of
accuracy and detail. This means, that greater precautions could be taken
to harness and preserve the renewable energy that was generated. TGN-
ADI algorithms driving data from various sources of data sets are trained
to identify patterns and make predictions based on those data points. This
will ensure more renewable energy plants could be planned for execution
in the region.
37
variability in biomass that arises from differences in species, genetics,
relative crop maturity, agronomic practices and harvest methods, soil type,
geographic location, and climatic patterns and events. This variability some
of which is avoidable and some of which is not, presents significant cost and
performance risks for renewable energy plants. Feedstock preprocessing is
a key first step in the biomass waste-to-energy supply chain, so reliably pre-
processing feedstocks will result in more efficient biomass conversion,
distribution, and end use down the line. Optimizing how biomass waste is
collected and pre-processed, and decreasing the cost in doing so, is a key
step in reducing the overall cost of biofuels and electricity generated, and
hence increases the company profit.
38
transaction records on the open and distributed ledger. TerraGreen aims
to inherit all the core fundamental characteristics of blockchain into its
ecosystem. Some of the core characteristics of blockchain that will be of
pivotal importance to TerraGreen are:
a. Decentralization
b. Security
c. Distributed Storage
d. Transparency
e. Fault Tolerance
f. Elimination of Middleman
The data processed and stored on an open ledger in TGN Ecosystem will be
divided into two parts. First one is the data such as transaction record
which are stored for record keeping purposes and retrieved as and when
required. The second type of data is the data such as the machine log,
prescriptive analytics report which are generally not used for managerial
purposes by employee. The data of the former type will be stored on the
open ledger in the presence of a user interface that allows storage and
makes retrieval of data easy. The latter kind will have no user interface due
to the absence of such a need. All the transactions happening in a factory
on TerraGreen model will be on blockchain SHA 384. This will ensure about
complete transparency, easy auditing and many more benefits.
39
predictable model under a given set of circumstance and constraints. TGN-
APP is the one of the main requirements for a user to be able to actively take
part and be associated with the community. The primary objective of DApp
creation is to build a user interface to ease the process of disposing of
waste for industrial contributor. Another important fundamental objective
of deep is to aware the community users about the possibility of Biomass
around them and bring about a change in their routine activities and
influence the way that people perceive waste in a positive manner. The
similar can be done in various ways by introducing users to, facts, articles,
news, etc. about the impact waste is created on the environment.
The TGN App will have basic fundamental characteristics of DApp namely:
Some of the features that user community will be able to exercise with the
help of TGNApp are:
Participate and Vote for various community and project related Integrated
TGN Wallet, to ease sending receiving and storing TGN Coin.
40
Community users can also raise a proposal for new collaborations and talk
initiations.
The list of provided features are not final and mandatory. Many different
features may be added along with the development of project and also,
some of the features may be removed for reasons like, but not limited to,
technological changes, conflict of interest, community demand etc.
Nevertheless, an implemented DAO will take community opinion and
majority authorization in account before any fundamental change is
implemented.
Mobile Wallet
Mobile wallets are usually much smaller & simpler than desktop wallets
because of the limited space available on a mobile. Wallet stores your
public and private keys and interface with various blockchain, so users can
monitor their balance, send money and conduct other operations. When a
person sends you TerraGreen coins or any other type of digital currency,
they are essentially signing off ownership of the coins to your wallet’s
address. To be able to spend those coins and unlock the funds, the private
key stored in your wallet must be matched to the public address whom the
currency is assigned to. If public and private keys matches, the balance in
your digital wallet will increase, and the senders will be decreased
accordingly. There is no actual exchange of real coins. The transaction is
signified merely by a transaction record on the blockchain & a change in
balance in your cryptocurrency wallet.
Web Wallet
Web wallets are managed by third parties in general - that is they hold the
private keys and the public keys of the user - means that the process of
accessing TerraGreen coin or any crypto currency is significantly lower -
you don’t have to download the full client or acquaint yourself with various
41
forms and methods inherent in wallet software. The trade-off though, is that
the third party who is responsible for maintaining the integrity of your wallet
and keeping secret the private keys - you need to trust them as they could
just run off with the money - Mobile Wallet Web Wallet 39 and there is no
Government based insurance scheme to guarantee deposits. The
advantages of web wallets - apart from the general simplicity - is has ability
to bundle transactions together before pushing them onto the blockchain
and therefore lowering transaction fees. They also perform internal
transfers for zero fees as an attraction to pull in customers and increase
their user base - a bitcoin ecosystem within the bitcoin ecosystem - again
TerraGreen is the perfect example of this, whilst offering wallet, exchange
and Point of Sale services - they have garnered a very large market share
pushing other payment services such as to adopt the same strategy and
vertically integrate into wallet services from Point of Sales and exchange
provision.
Blockchain Platform
42
completed information about different user addresses and their balances
right from the genesis block to the most recently completed block. The
blockchain was designed so these transactions are immutable,which means
they cannot be deleted. The blocks are added through cryptography,
ensuring that they remain meddle-proof: The data can be distributed, but
cannot be not copied. However, the ever-growing size of the blockchain is
considered by some to be a problem, which creates issues of storage and
synchronization.
Our platform provides users the flexibility to pay their bills directly
from their TerraGreen wallet. The platform boasts immediate
transaction between times and even allows you to use a combination
of crypto and fiat currency to pay your bills. There is 0.0001 TGN flat
transaction fee for their services; which is far less than fiat-based
payment systems and despite the payment limits, TerraGreen is
expanding quickly.
43
TerraGreen Token Module
The token module of Terra green has an enhanced GUI features which
are more convenient to the users to create its own token using terrageen
token module.
All these tokens are properties of entities. And if we add new field in node
then these field will be available as token. Terragreen token module
would require token generation and its return value properties. Token
properties will comprise of the following:
These terragreen token will be issued to the public through a crowd sale
which is known as a terragreen Coin. The creators of the token will issue the
token to others in exchange for Terragreen and sometimes bitcoin and
other digital currencies.
44
Generally, There’s no requirement that tokens should be well distributed,
although it is a decentralized application so the tokens should be owned by
as many people as possible.
Smart contract are defined by their main creators, but their execution, its
extension provides the services they offer. This is done by the Terragreen
network itself.
45
They will exist & be will be executable till the time where the whole network
exists, and will only disappear if they were programmed to self-destruct.
After creation of the smart contract the user can build his own crypto token
to send whomsoever he likes. Once he’s mastered, then he’ll raise the funds
through crowd funding process. If successful, will supply a thoroughly
transparent & autonomous organization that will only obey its own citizens
and will never swerve away from its constitution and cannot be censored or
shutdown.
Smart contracts define the penalties & rules surrounding an agreement just
like all traditional contracts. Unlike traditional contracts, however, smart
contracts also enforces the rules.
These smart contracts have the functionalities, on which user can relay on.
They are as follow:
Well, in present, the word “ blockchain” is one of the phrases that gets a lot
of hype which helps to make a smart contracts using public keys & private
keys.

Revenue Sources
TerraGreen Coin will have two major and constant sources of revenue
starting from first platform deployment. TerraGreen Coin will receive 1.5% of
the total reward distributed by the Biomass waste processing industry to
the generator or perhaps to any waste disposer. Additionally, TerraGreen
Coin will also receive 4% of the total amount paid by any Coin holder for
advertising contents. TerraGreen Coin will introduce other sources of
revenue as below:
48
revenue. The prime objective of such preset criteria’s is to verify and
ascertain that no significant changes in the working of platform is done
without taking all the steps to ensure it doesn’t hamper our growth and
expansion. TerraGreen Coin aims to become profitable by the end of Q3
2021. TerraGreen Coin believes that the widespread adoption of platform
will need better financial scope of profitability and that too as soon as
possible and the same will be taken care of, enabled and catalyzed by
TerraGreen Coin.
Dividend Declaration
Income generated from activities conducted under fund flow activities will
accrue dividends to all coin holders of TerraGreen, depending on the
quantity of purchase and tenure filed by coin owners. The higher the
quantity and tenure, the higher the dividend.
TerraGreen will have the following classification of incomes:
1. Harvesting Activities:
Every acacia plantation will have three harvesting seasons: i.e. on the
second year, 6th year and 10th year. The harvested trees are sold to
timber mills or biomass-based power plants for a commercial value
depending on the types of species and quantity harvested.
2. Profit from activities of renewable energy plant:
Income registered from profits derived from financially supporting
renewable energy plants will be accrued every three years. This
income is either for supporting the renewable energy plants for
equipment purchasing for supporting them to avail operational
expense support from TGN.
3. Income from full-scale biomass units:
TGN will, over the time conduct many research and development
activities for availing increased efficiency in the following activity:
a) Activated carbon from wood waste
b) Cellulose and Hemi-cellulose extraction from biomass.
c) Hydrogen Enrichment
Technology evolution is always factored with efficiency. Such
technologies will be value for commercial value at the 3rd year from
commencement of R&D, on each above technology.

Funding Goals
In order to build this platform and scale it to the planned level, as per our
estimate, we do not require more than 11 Million USD. Hence, the hard cap
for the sale will be 11 Million USD. Also, if we are not successful in raising 11
Million USD, we will still be efficiently able to launch this project by raising a
minimum of 5 Million USD. In case we do not reach our soft cap, board
meeting will be organized to discuss if the project cannot be launched with
the raised amount. If the raised amount is not enough to launch the project,
all the contributions will return to the investors within the period of 10 days
after the end of the Coin Sale.
Coin Economy
TerraGreen platform main purpose is to develop a renewable energy
ecosystem that uses the blockchain technology to deliver and exchange
green energy with no central authority or trusted third party controlling the
platform. Hence, this provides the possibility for individual and/or investors
to take possession and control of their future energy use. Additionally, the
TerraGreen platform allows monetize energy-related work. The tokenization
of renewable energy production makes TerraGreen token a viable option
as the digital currency as defined by DeKo thesis. TerraGreen token is
generated by renewable energy producers and thereby sell these tokens
within the TerraGreen platform.

Value Appreciation
After the end of Coin sale, the raised fund will be allocated as mentioned
below.

The above-mentioned allocations have been finalized after proper
research and evaluation and can be assumed to be followed under all
circumstances. Any unlikely marginal deviations will be made public as
per our transparency policies

Challenges
Additionally, we’re aware of the challenges which may come along in using
the technology(s) mentioned in the paper as most of these have been
developed recently and have not been tested as much as they should have
been globally. The deployment also involves dependencey on program
which are open for updates from time to time. We are aware of this marginal
possibility of hiccups resulting from these and will strategically work to
avoid any advers effect on our platform, all because of these changes.

Conclusion

Our Dedicated Team
The success of any building design depends on bringing the right team
members onto the project. For projects with integrated renewable energy,
any successful design team must bring specific renewable energy
experience to the table. Team experience should not be limited to
knowledge of the relevant renewable energy technologies, but should also
include how to integrate these systems into a building project, how to
properly assess renewable energy, how to incorporate renewable energy
into energy simulations, how to leverage policies, incentives and project
funding for renewable energy, and how to design successful measurement
and verification systems. In addition, the design should be accomplished
using an integrated design process.
The project goals identified during planning and programming must be
disseminated to the team members. The information on renewable energy
gained from the screening can inform the early discussions on the potential
mixes of technologies that could be integrated into the design. A design
charrette facilitates these discussions and allows the entire project team to
discuss the options for ensuring that the goals will be met. The charrette is
also an opportunity to define team member roles, facilitate coordination,
and clarify who has responsibility for particular renewable energy issues.
