Grid-connected System

Grid-connected system was applied to many urban areas housing, existing electricity network. The purpose of using solar panels, to save the cost of excessive electricity consumption and help reduce the greenhouse effect caused by the use of fossil fuels which cause excessive air pollution. Electrical energy which is in turn, channeled into the electricity networks that already exist and can be stored in the electricity network. This term is called the Hybrid System, which combine solar power plants with electricity network. Solar systems can also be combined with other power plants such as PV-Generator Hybrid, Hybrid PV-Microhydro, Hybrid PV-Wind and can even be combined into 3 systems of different power to Hybrid PV-Wind-Generator.

What To Expect From Solar Power Home?

Many people, especially those who are beginners in solar technology may wonder how solar panels work. But first, what is the home solar panels? This is a solar-powered gadget that collect and use the energy from the sun through its rays and convert it into power.

Some people use solar panels home gadgets to act as an alternative source of energy for their small household, effectively complements the consumption of electricity from local utilities.

There are still homeowners who invest in residential solar panels are fully able to provide power to the house, run all appliances, water heaters and swimming pool. However, the cost is very expensive if you intend to own and install your own home solar panels that will work as the only source of daily strength. A solar panel unit actually has a very high price from a few thousand dollars.

How solar panels work can be answered simply. He has a photovoltaic cell in a panel that primarily works by collecting energy from sunlight that falls on them, then solar energy is converted into electrical energy for use at home.

You may very well consider this gadget as an investment, because you need to shell out large enough amount of money to buy and install them as your resource. It is a serious investment even if you only need to spend the money early, the amount needed is really great. After purchase you do not have to worry about this as the sun runs his own gadgets, making endless supply of electricity to your residence with the help, of course, the sun.

Many supporters of a clean environment and recommended the use of green house solar panels, if only because the energy that collects and converts power from the sun. Therefore, the power generated is clean and not harmful to the environment of the world. Likewise, you do not have to worry about running out of the sun’s energy for endless supply. Solar energy is a clean renewable energy, and is considered the best alternative energy is there.

How Solar Power Plant Installation

Solar Power Plant is a system of clean energy and produce electricity from sunlight. Also support the issue of global warming. Because energy is widely used by State Electricity Enterprise is the energy that can not be renewable (fossil) fuel such as kerosene, gas, coal, etc. Whereas current cost of fuel has begun to become dearer. If using the sun is free energy available abundant.

Installation and Operation is very easy, enduring long and a very inexpensive investment option to be public at this time. Can be used to meet electricity needs anywhere, especially in rural areas or areas that do not (not yet) reached by State Electricity Enterprise network.

Various Benefits of Using Solar Power Plant:

Source of energy that never runs out and is very environmentally friendly
Can be used anywhere, especially areas that have not yet reached by State Electricity Enterprise network
No need to pay State Electricity Enterprise
Without fuel and pollution-free
Not require special treatment
Free from all treatment
Can be used to light a variety of electrical equipment, especially for lighting the lamp, radio, cassette, TV
Can be used for emergency lighting when electricity of State Electricity Enterprise, have extinction (power off)
And so on

Principles of Sun Power Plant

In the daylight the solar panel receives light (rays) of the sun and then converted into electricity through the Photovoltaic. Electricity generated by solar panels can be directly channeled to burden or stored in Electric Box System (EBS), before use to load, light, radio, TV etc.

At the night, where the solar panel does not generate electricity. Electricity that has been collected (stored) in a Electric Box System (EBS) will be used. To turn on electrical equipment, especially the lighting, etc.

Components of Solar Power Plant

1. Solar Panel:
Change the sunlight into electricity. Modular form of the solar panel provides the ease of the electricity needs for various scale of the needs.

2. Electric Box System (EBS):

Set of traffic from the solar panel to the load
Saving electric current generated by the solar panel before used to drive the load. Burden can be a lamp, electronic device and other equipment that requires electricity
Very flexible in placement, you can take shift about.

The Design of Solar Power Plant – The Practical and Flexible

With a flexible design that can be possible to increase the capacity of electricity with solar panels only add (maximum 2 solar panel) for each package.

Installation HOW VERY EASY

Place solar panel outside the house (roof, roof tile, or make your own tower, etc.) directly to the sunlight adjust with the situation / place / situation you secure place
Pull cable from solar panel, and enter plug to EBS IN DC (There are DC IN and DC OUT) Plus ON-OFF if you use (do not forget to note the ON-OFF key If you use ON if not used right OFF). For a cable if less in length you can add/connect your own. Set EBS & cable installation neat and safely out of reach of children etc.
If solar panel at work, on the EBS have red indicator lights, when charging energy from the panel to EBS will be full, red indicator light will turn on flicker, if it is full will be off. Green indicator lights mark the flow you are working.
In the EBS (Electric Box System) have stop contact Out AC is useful to set the electronic equipment appropriate with watt and energy saved. You can also make your own plug combination for parallel needs. (Many stop contacts that have sold in the market with 2 holes, 4 holes, 6 holes, etc.) find the high quality.
Ready to use to set the lights, tv, radio, etc

Solar Powered Racing Car

June 11, 2009 By: Admin Category: General

Cambridge University Loves Races

You have heard about the proverbial hairdryers, have you not? Those noisy types of mopeds sprawling the streets of suburbia?

Now the Cambridge University students have created a solar-powered racing car that travels at 60mph speed, using the same power as a hairdryer. The car is to be completed by summer 2009, in time for the World Solar Challenge, an annual gruelling race across the Australian outback, from Darwin to Adelaide. The Cantabrigian creation, the Bethany, is highly tipped to win the competition.

The Bethany’s power source is collected via silicon cells that cover the car’s top; under this top, the car will be an efficient electric device. The car itself looks sleek and shiny, and, thanks to such design, weighs mere 170kg, has a battery management control system in place, an energy generating braking system, and an energy-efficient hub motor. The team behind the car’s creation estimates that the car will take 50 times less power than a normal car running on petrol.

Cambridge University may be the second oldest in England, but it is likely to be the first when it comes to devising new ideas for cars. At least, they definitely hope to show how future green vehicles can be generated based on the Bethany model. To quote their spokesperson, “at a time when the automotive industry is being forced to look at a low-carbon future, our vehicle demonstrates the enormous potential of energy-efficient electric vehicle technologies”. About 75 students from across the Cambridge University have been working on the vehicle’s design and build. Their efforts were supported by a network of corporate sponsors, academics, and specialist advisors.

In the next months the racing team of four students will be testing the car across the Outback, working in four-hour shifts, to cope with the heat. During the race, though, the Bethany will be fitted with an advanced cruise control system. It will be automatically adjusting speed, depending on the changes to road conditions and weather. The only thing the drivers will be left to do will be to steer the car and stay alert.
