Week 6

This week we worked more on the application of the SEC calculator on data from GREET. We also decided that it would be prudent to expand our coverage to include a larger range of years.  In addition to the 2010 data, we will also be investigating 2007, 2013, 2016, and 2019.  With these additional SEC results, an extrapolation will be created in order to establish the trends that each of these fuel sources are following.  This extrapolation will give a much more influential basis with which to justify the creation of SEC.  Our hope is to be able to present SEC as a legitimate scale to use in the analysis and comparison of any fuel system, and with these additional data points, the scale should gain rapport with it's critics.

Finally, we allocated tasks to move us toward the completion of our data, graphs, charts, write ups and presentation. Dan is responsible for tabulating the results of the SEC and projecting outputs up until the year 2019. Bryan is responsible for writing up the Fuel Systems page and finalizing it. Eric is responsible for gathering data from GREET and assisting Dan in the finalization of the SEC data. Ross and Steven will both be working on calculating the costs of implementing the alternative systems, and outlining the presentation for week 10.
