Solar Electricity

Electricity supply has gained importance with the increase of electricity demand in the world. The energy that the sun can accept forever provides great convenience for electricity generation. In regions where the sun's rays are steep, it is easier to generate electricity from the solar energy, whereas in regions where the sun's rays are horizontal, the electricity production from the solar energy remains at a lower level. In this study, Istanbul and Adana are compared in the northern and southern regions of Turkey. These two cities were examined for daily sunshine periods, daily and monthly radiation amounts. The effects of air temperatures and sunshine durations on the average radiation amounts have been investigated. The province of Adana has an annual total of 1568.49 kWh, whereas the province of Istanbul has a total of 1327 kWh radiation. When the annual sunshine periods are examined, it is 97.13 hours in Adana and 78.99 hours in Istanbul. It is seen that less electricity production can be done year round in Istanbul province and the hourly production is more than that in Adana when compared to sunrise times. When the average annual temperatures are examined, Adana province is 19 °C and Istanbul province is 13.8 °C. Although the province of Istanbul has a lower average temperature, it has been found that it has a higher yield than the province of Adana.

This paper analyses the impacts of electricity generation from solar energy on the Thai electricity industry. In this paper, three scenarios (REF, Solar2015 and Solar2018) are developed to represent an increased levels of electricity produced from solar energy. A Low Emissions Analysis Platform (LEAP) model is employed, in this paper, to assess the impacts for the period 2019–2037.This paper assesses and analyses the scenario impacts in terms of diversification of electricity generation, fossil fuel requirement and emissions of CO2 and SO2. The analysis reveals that increased electricity generation from solar energy would help diversify energy supply for electricity generation, reduce fossil fuel imports, and therefore help improve energy security of the country. Furthermore, it would help mitigating CO2 and SO2 emissions – an issue of environmental significance. Despite several benefits, there are a number of emerging barriers for promoting electricity generation from solar energy in Thailand. These include the intermittency of solar energy, high-capital cost, unsupportable grid infrastructure and unfavourable regulatory framework. This paper, therefore, suggests that the implementation of energy storage system, provision of financial incentives to potential investors, improvement of grid flexibility and the revision of the regulations to support solar energy business could be effective strategies in order to address the barriers facing the Thai electricity industry.

Solar power is the burgeoning method of continual energy. The assignment is designed and carried out the use of dual axis sun tracker system. In order to maximise power era from solar, it’s important to introduce sun ray monitoring systems into solar electricity production. A dual-axis tracker can boom power through monitoring solar rays from switching photovoltaic cells in various directions. These photovoltaic cells can rotate in all directions. The LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) have been used to feel the depth of mild at 30 degree every or at 180 degree general and ship the information to microcontroller. This assignment also can be used to experience rain drop, temperature and humidity using sensor and they may be displayed on LCD. We can save the Solar energy in battery.

Heat and cooling stands out with the great potential in decarbonisation since they have a large share in the final energy consumption. Power-to-heat technologies may contribute to the heat sector decarbonisation as well as the integration of renewables if they are sufficiently flexible. They are also shown to have a good effect on the system costs. This work will analyse the potential of seawater heat pump system for the utilization of high share of electricity production from the renewables. The Old City of Dubrovnik is selected as a case study because of its specific situation. A large number of the outdoor units are not well approved by UNESCO since the Old City is under the protection of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre. The results of the study showed that the combination of wind and solar electricity production can cover 67% of load for stand-alone seawater heat pump system based on hourly time step. Utilization of renewable electricity generation, for this case, resulted in 433.71 tCO2/y emission reduction. System based on 10 minutes time step gave poorer results by 6%. System with the additional energy storage gained best results in the case of combined wind and solar electricity generation, as well. It resulted in storage capacity reduction by 78% ac-cording to the case of solar electricity generation and by 60% according to the wind electricity generation. Battery energy storage resulted in 40 times lower volume and 13 times higher investment costs and levelised cost of heat in comparison to the thermal energy storage.

Solar Panels

In recent years the use of solar energy is found to have grown by a large amount. Solar energy is renewable energy and the demand for it as clean energy shows its growth by nearly 50 percent in the past decade. It is estimated that the sun is able to generate energy within 24 hours that the entire population of the world could consume in 27 years. Solar power is the energy from the sun that is converted into thermal or electrical energy. The energy harnessed from the sun's rays is used for a variety of applications like electricity generation, to provide light for the interior environment, and many other domestic, commercial, and industrial purposes. Usage of fossil fuels for electricity production results in increased pollution and this mandates many governments to encourage moving to electricity generation using solar power. The large amount of solar energy that is available is found to be the most appealing source of electricity. Solar panels form a major part of the solar energy setup. Hence in this article let us review the various types of solar panels. This paper also deals with comparing the merits and demerits of the different types of solar panels that are available in the market. A section that presents the efficiency of the different kinds of the solar panel is also present in this paper. The role of temperature coefficient, fire rating, and hail rating in the performance of the solar panel is also addressed in this paper.

The World Bank Study," Water and Power Resources of West Pakistan" [1], is one of the most thorough-going and sophisticated of its type. In re¬reading it we have been struck by a curious argument related to the real benefits to be expected from the construction of the Tarbela dam. It was designed to produce electricity as well as to irrigate land and it was necessary to estimate the benefits that the electricity would confer. One way of doing this was to estimate the saving that would be made by using hydro-power instead of natural gas or imported fuel, for electricity generation. This meant that an appropriate set of prices had to be estimated for Pakistan's supply of natural gas. The way in which this was done was, to say the least, unusual. The relevant passage justi¬fying the approach adopted is as follows:
