Solar Energy Technical Research Proposal
This team project was chosen to highlight what I learned from the entire class regarding technical research, it does not always have to be boring. We chose a real-world issue to solve with this project – Solar Energy. How would the City of Colorado Springs benefit from our project? Develop a partnership with two entrepreneurs who wanted to start a 290 MW Solar Energy Photovoltaic Farm Array in El Paso County on land that was perfectly suited for it. With this project, I learned that I needed to develop connections with those who would be able to help make this a reality due to the benefits of this concept. I met the following PTW outcomes:
Identify reader/user expectation
Evaluate and use appropriate strategies for production and editing
Analyzing, navigating, and synthesizing research data
