Community Energy Project for Power Generation

USE OF THE INFORMATION
PROVIDED AND ASSUMPTIONS MADE
 The project is about to build community energy project for power
generation with the utilisation of wind turbines to serve the local
communities in either of the selected 5 locations. These locations
include the coastal part of North East England, Offshore in North
Sea, over the hills in the Pennines, across the formula and in the
midlands and on mountain tops in the Scottish Highlands. The
project team is a working group of about five to six people with
having mixed expertise (Kerzner 2017). The expertise include
mechanical engineering, energy or electrical engineering,
transport engineering, supply chain management and financial
accounting. The total operation life of the project is 20 years.
 The selected location is Coastal part of North east England.

THE PROJECT ASSUMPTIONS
 The resources required for the project would be available at all times
 During the period of the project development, keep liver would be available
during the rainy season.
 All stakeholders would be available for contacting at any point of time during
the working hours (Zareei 2018).
 The project team members have all the required skills for the development of
the energy project of power generation with wind turbines for serving the local
community (Mohan 2018).
 The local community would not have any problems in the development of the
project.
 The government would ensure the project team and the executives of the
organisation with a proper permission for carrying out with the development in
construction project (Jupp 2017)

OT ANALYSIS
Strength Weakness
The project is an advance project with inclusive
workforce stimulation. The project develop the
knowledge about subcontractors and at the
same time has a skilful work team which is
looking forward to providing support to the
people within the areas already discussed. It is
trying to serve the local community by building
the power generation using wind turbine.
The weakness of the project is the uncertainty
about the location in which the particular
construction is about to happen as there is
discussion about several areas amongst five
specific locations that needs to be decided
upon. On the other hand the project is lasting
over 20 years which provides an extensive
overview.
Opportunities Threat
The opportunities for this project are immense
as it requires the development of the wind
turbines for producing energy and helping the
local community which is an innovative project.
The threats for this project includes the
weather conditions that might affect the
overall working condition of the wind turbines
for producing energy and also the extensive
period of time that might also include the
