Solar Power Author Ming Zhang Abstract: this paper introduce solar power from several aspect. The situation of solar energy, the application we find in modern life. Let us to know the solar panel and two basic kind of solar farm. Finally, it illustrate the structure of PV cell, calculate the efficiency and introduce us one new kind of solar converters. Index terms: Solar Power, application Solar farm, Photovoltaic, converter Introduction As solar power
Introduction Solar energy is defined as the transformation of the sun’s rays into useful forms of energy, for instance, electricity and heat. The capacity of solar radiation a place receives depends on a variety of factors such as geographic location, time of day, season, and local weather. According to Knier (n.d.) photo voltaic and concentrating solar power cells are the two forms of sources to produce electricity. Photo voltaic cells generate electricity directly using solar cells and concentrated
Solar energy is capable of providing a cleaner energy than most forms of energy generation, and solar energy is able to be generated economically. Solar energy reduces the amount of harm to the environment from energy generation, by providing a cleaner alternative. Solar energy also provides jobs for construction and installation of solar powered technologies. The cost of installing solar panels can vary greatly, but its long term benefits outweigh the costs. Typically a solar panel system is
Solar Energy On one bright sunny day in July, as Victor was walking through the town where he was vacationing, he noticed something he had never seen before. Grid-like panels on top of a house sparked his curiosity. After returning to the hotel he was staying at, Victor asked to use the business center. He browsed the internet as he tried to figure out what the curious panels were. He eventually came across Solar panels in his search and he began to take an interest in the subject. Victor soon found
South African power crisis needs little introduction as most of us spend our nights in the shadows singing “Hello Darkness My Old Friend” and ‘’I’ve Got the Power ’’ in the hope that at some point the glorious rays of light will return. This energy crisis sees little end in sight and leaves the people of our country with a need and responsibility to find alternative sources of energy - solar power is one of these solutions. Solar power is a brilliant idea as it harnesses the power of the sun and
Solar Power I.Introduction - The Origin of Solar Energy Solar energy is a photovoltaic effect. It is the act of electricity generated from sunlight. Sunlight begins with the sun. The sun is made up of four layers which are: the core, the radiative zone, the convective zone, and the photosphere. These layers have their own purposes that creates light. Light is a form of radiation, electromagnetic radiation, which is made up of photons. The core produces the energy by hydrogen atoms(H). Then it converts
he popularity of solar power seems undiminished even after decades of its discovery. It was what everybody was raving about in the 70's. The popular frenzy over solar power continued well into the 80's too. What is surprising to note is that solar power is still enjoying tremendous popularity even today. So what makes solar power such a 'hot' idea (no pun intended) even after all these years? The first, and clearly the most important reason, is economy. If you've ever wondered if there is such a
Solar power is among the very best environmental choices within the energy sector that is accessible to everyone. This source of energy will be in existence for as long as the earth exists. However, you must determine if it's not fiscally unwise to spend money on this alternative power source resource. These suggestions can help you in your journey to utilizing solar power. Routine care helps to ensure that the solar-powered add-ons work correctly. The panel surfaces have to be cleaned, and all
thinking how important it is to us. We use it to power our homes with gas, light, and heat. The bills we receive to keep this electricity could be easily reduced by looking at an energy source that gives our environment a clean and renewable energy source. This is a simpler, cheaper, cleaner, and all-around better energy solution known as solar energy. Solar energy is energy transformed from sunlight when the sun's rays hit the solar panels.The solar panels are made up of photovoltaic(PV) cells, which
Solar energy is derived from the rays of the sun, as is evident from its name itself. Solar energy has numerous benefits for users. However, until recent years, this source of energy could be used only during the day. Presently though, the current technology enables individuals to effectively store and use solar power, even during the night. We would be discussing some of the major benefits of solar energy in this article. While it has always been customary to depend on the sun for heat and warmth
