Data

[1] Panel(s) rating (max gross) per site/panel/panel group. Ref only, not part of calculation.
[2] From takebacktheheat.org/CalcPanel: enter [1] as 'Watts/panel', retrieve 'CO2e tonnes / y / p'
[3] Quantity of these groups (not panels per group)'

Results

Global 1 degree Celsius change will require removal of approx. 3.6E+12 (3.62874 Trillion) metric tonnes of CO2e.

Total 'heat' removed from the atmosphere is equivalent to removing 0 tCO2e

0 % of 1 Degree Celsius Target.

Strategy 80 year temperature reduction (Celsius)
Transportation Electrification 0.1

Instructions

Data grid shows simplified list of classifications of AHR units, along with calculated tonnes of CO2e per year per panel or group, with quantity and results for single year. This is a partial list of possible AHR solutions.

The graph shows the results over years selected (first selection group). Update the data grid as desired, using 'show' checkbox to remove from calculations and graph as desired.

Utilize first grid row ('what you are doing') for entering AHR details you are implementing, changing the description, panel/group watt description, and settings as desired.

Utilize the https://takebacktheheat.org/CalcPanel/ calculator to determine tCO2e/y/p values, where raw (max watts) panel rating is used along with load factors etc. to estimate tCO2e per year per panel/group specific with location specific details.

General estimate (Calgary, Ab, Canada) including daylight estimates, solar radiation strength, and efficiency factors ('catch','dispatch conversion', 'dispatch') is load factor of 23.4% for .74 GJ/y per panel; 4.47 tCO2e/y per 100 Watts Pmax.

The 'posts' rows show basic count of posts and acres involved (typical fence lines).

Observe the results, with the last table showing the comparison to other climate initiative strategy results.

These solutions will affect vicinity area only, do not expect the 'global average' temperature to change quickly or from concentrated installations. Reducing atmospheric heat around cities, farms, ice areas and more can have additional benefits beyond the global warming impact.

These calculations represent an all-at-once implementation the first year, which is not realistic. For a staggered schedule with additional solutions please see https://takebacktheheat.org/model/.
