Abstract :
The use of renewable energy (RE) requires a complicated design when meeting complex needs in National Parks. The design of a renewable energy system for the wolf researchers at Isle Royale National Park, Michigan provided many challenges due to location and also limitations to weather data. The paper provides and design for a RE system to meet the needs of the researchers.
