Background
• 2 Shore Stations – each able to individually power to the network, although with possible reduced capability
• West Coast of Vancouver Island– Planned visitor center at Victoria– Existing cable stations at Port Alberni,
Bamfield
• Oregon Coast– Existing cable stations at Nedonna Beach,
Rockaway, Pacific City, Bandon

Local Utility Power Reliability
• 2 Substations, each located about 8 miles away
• Station currently served by 1, possibility of connecting to both substations with a switch
• Several outages of 30-60 minutes per year can be expected – mostly from trees/branches

UPS Alternatives
• DC System– Typical for Telecom Systems– Most equipment requires 48 VDC – AC-DC rectifiers supply power to batteries
and equipment – If utility power fails, batteries are always on-
line– 3-8 hour battery life typical, generator optional– DC-AC inverter for critical AC loads (minimal)

UPS Alternatives
• AC System– Typical for Information Technology, Network,
Hospital, Commercial and similar facilities– Most equipment requires 120VAC– If utility fails, run on battery until generator
starts– 10 minute battery life, typical– One or more generators for AC backup

Load Power Requirements
• Expected NEPTUNE Shore Station Load is mostly AC equipment
• Power Estimate – 120 kW total– 100 kW seafloor cable load– 20 kW terrestrial load
• Current Estimates– 48 VDC → 2500 A– 480 VAC, 3Ф → 144 A
![Page 13: Shore Station UPS Requirements for the NEPTUNE Power System Tim McGinnis UW/APL.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022083007/56649e365503460f94b25c5e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Cost
• For Loads < 25 kW– Batteries cost less– Batteries have smaller footprint
• For Loads > 25 kW– Generator costs less– Generator has smaller footprint
