the economic viability of a PV system as an alternate energy sourcewhen compared to electricity from the grid. The economic analysis will consider a number offactors such as system location, wattage cost, loan interest rates, and government incentives. Theeconomic analysis is facilitated by developing user friendly Microsoft Excel based tools. Thefollowing procedure is used to perform the economic analysis.ProcedureThe following steps are involved:1. Calculate the energy requirements. The daily amount of energy, Q, required to meet house energy needs can be read from Page 25.1201.3 past utility bills.2. Estimate the Effective

reputation for his research in the areas of computational fluid dynamics, fluid particle systems, and fluidization. His computational work has shortened the time lag from laboratory- to commercial-scale for fluid/particle and fluidized bed systems. He currently serves on the editorial board of the Powder Technology Journal. He has received several AIChE awards includ- ing the Donald Q. Kern Award in Heat Transfer and Energy Conversion, the Fluor Daniel Lectureship in Fluidization and Fluid/Particle Systems, the Ernest W. Thiele Award, and the Fluidization Process Recognition Award. He is also a Fellow of AIChE.Mr. Mohamed Shahidehpour, Illinois Institute of TechnologyMr. Joseph Clair P.E., Illinois Institute of Technology
