Ua kōkua lōʻihi ka ʻikepili o ke aniau i nā mea wānana e wānana i nā ao, ka ua a me nā ʻino. Makemake ʻo Lisa Bozeman o ka Purdue Polytechnic Institute e hoʻololi i kēia i hiki i nā mea nona ka ʻōnaehana lawelawe a me ka ʻōnaehana solar ke wānana i ka wā a me kahi e ʻike ʻia ai ka lā, a ma muli o ia mea, e hoʻonui i ka hana ikehu lā.
"ʻAʻole wale ke ʻano polū o ka lani," wahi a Boseman, he polopeka kōkua i loaʻa iā ia kāna Ph.D. ma ke ʻenekinia ʻoihana. "E pili ana hoʻi i ka hoʻoholo ʻana i ka hana ʻana a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka uila."
Ke noiʻi nei ʻo Bozeman pehea e hiki ai ke hoʻohui ʻia ka ʻikepili o ke aniau me nā ʻikepili ʻē aʻe i loaʻa i ka lehulehu e hoʻomaikaʻi i ka pane ʻana a me ka pono o ka pūnaewele aupuni ma o ka wānana pololei ʻana i ka hana ikehu lā. Kū pinepine nā ʻoihana lawelawe i ka pilikia o ka hoʻokō ʻana i ke koi i nā kauwela wela a me nā hoʻoilo hau.
"I kēia manawa, loaʻa nā wānana a me nā hiʻohiʻona hoʻonui lā palena ʻia i nā pono hana e pili ana i ka hopena o ka ikehu lā ma ka pūnaewele i kēlā me kēia lā," wahi a Bozeman. "Ma ka hoʻoholo ʻana pehea e hoʻohana ai i ka ʻikepili e kū nei e loiloi i ka hanauna lā, ke manaʻolana nei mākou e kōkua i ka pūnaewele. ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o nā mea hoʻoholo hoʻokele e hoʻokele i nā kūlana ʻino loa a me nā piko a me nā awāwa i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka ikehu."
Nānā nā keʻena aupuni, nā kahua mokulele, a me nā mea hoʻolaha i nā kūlana o ka lewa i ka manawa maoli. Hōʻiliʻili ʻia hoʻi ka ʻike o ke aniau o kēia manawa e nā kānaka e hoʻohana ana i nā mea pili i ka Pūnaewele i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ko lākou mau home. Eia kekahi, hōʻiliʻili ʻia ka ʻikepili e nā satelite NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) a me NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration). Hoʻohui ʻia ka ʻikepili mai kēia mau kikowaena aniau like ʻole a loaʻa i ka lehulehu.
Ke ʻimi nei ka hui noiʻi a Bozeman i nā ala e hoʻohui i ka ʻike manawa maoli me ka ʻikepili wā mōʻaukala mai ka National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), ka hoʻokolohua aupuni mua a ka US Department of Energy i ka ikehu hou a me ka noiʻi a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka pono o ka ikehu. Hoʻopuka ʻo NREL i kahi ʻikepili i kapa ʻia ʻo Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) e hāʻawi ana i nā waiwai radiation solar i kēlā me kēia hola a me nā mea meteorological no kahi makahiki maʻamau. Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka ʻikepili TMY NREL e hoʻoholo i nā kūlana aniau maʻamau ma kahi wahi kikoʻī i kahi manawa lōʻihi.
No ka hana ʻana i ka ʻikepili TMY, ua lawe ʻo NREL i ka ʻikepili o ke kahua aniau mai nā makahiki 50 a 100 i hala, ua helu ʻia a loaʻa ka mahina kokoke loa i ka awelika, wahi a Boseman. ʻO ka pahuhopu o ke aʻo ʻana, ʻo ia ka hoʻohui ʻana i kēia ʻikepili me ka ʻikepili o kēia manawa mai nā kikowaena aniau kūloko ma ka ʻāina holoʻokoʻa e wānana i ka mahana a me ke alo o ka radiation o ka lā ma nā wahi kikoʻī, me ka nānā ʻole inā kokoke a mamao paha kēlā mau wahi mai nā kumu ʻikepili manawa maoli.
"Ma ka hoʻohana ʻana i kēia ʻike, e helu mākou i nā hoʻopilikia hiki ke loaʻa i ka grid mai nā ʻōnaehana solar ma hope o ka mika," wahi a Bozeman. "Inā hiki iā mākou ke wānana i ka hana ʻana o ka lā i ka wā e hiki mai ana, hiki iā mākou ke kōkua i nā pono hana e hoʻoholo inā e loaʻa iā lākou ka nele a i ʻole keu o ka uila."
ʻOiai ʻo ka maʻamau, hoʻohana nā ʻoihana lawelawe i ka hui pū ʻana o nā wahie fossil a me nā mea hou e hana i ka uila, hana kekahi mau mea nona ka home a me nā ʻoihana i ka mana o ka lā a i ʻole ka makani ma kahi ma hope o ka mika. ʻOiai ʻokoʻa nā kānāwai ana ʻupena ma kēlā me kēia mokuʻāina, koi pinepine lākou i nā ʻoihana lawelawe e kūʻai i ka uila keu i hana ʻia e nā panela photovoltaic o nā mea kūʻai aku. No laila, i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ikehu lā ma ka grid, hiki i ka noiʻi a Bozeman ke kōkua i nā ʻoihana lawelawe e hōʻemi i kā lākou hoʻohana ʻana i nā wahie fossil.
