Often it can be said that your solar system is only as good as the solar panels and inverters. You know, “higher wattage is always better”. But what if that is just a myth? Making power is only one element of the equation. You also need to manage that power intelligently. And you also need to have choices, based upon changes in public policy dictated by public utility commissions. ...

It’s that time of year again. Tomorrow is the Summer Solstice, aka the first day of summer, the longest day of the year, and the day of the year with more sunlight than any other in the Northern Hemisphere. For most of us in the U.S., we will experience somewhere around 15 hours or so of daylight tomorrow. But, did you know, more energy from the sun will reach the surface of the Earth in ...

In 2018, Dynapower deployed the first DC-DC converter in a DC-coupled PV+S (PV + storage) configuration at an existing utility-scale PV+S installation. Since then, the innovative solar-plus-storage solution has gained traction due to the ability of DC-coupled PV+S to increase PV energy capture and decrease the costs as compared to AC-coupled energy storage solutions. Recent reports from IHS ...

Lights are the most important components of security systems. Well-lit locations are generally avoided by trespassers, because such areas can disrupt stealthy movements. The isolated nature of far-flung locations, such as military bases, mining sites, agricultural operations and manufacturing plants, can be made secure with solar perimeter lighting, coupled with other security devices. Remote ...

In this paper, we evaluate the possibility of employing a hybrid powertrain to propel a light aircraft. The work suggests that the incorporation of a hybrid powertrain has little effect on fuel consumption for a light aircraft operating in a condition of straight and level cruise. However, there is a potential decrease in fuel consumption when a light aircraft operates either in climb or when ...

People are not worried about the pollution coming from the renewable energy sources, because most of them do not produce significant amounts of pollution. The supplies, the process of how the supplies come to the source and the demolishing machines used to erect these renewable energy sources are the true culprits wreaking havoc environmentally. For instance, older wind turbines have a negative ...

In this paper, harvesting vibration energy from suspension is investigated. Theoretical values for the harvested energy are calculated. Experimental evaluation of the energy is performed using vehicle road simulation facilities. An excitation signal in the frequency range of 0.5 Hz to 20 Hz is applied to the vehicle and the harvested power is calculated. Experimental results give a maximum ...

Logging residue is an inexpensive and easily accessible source of biofuel, but to improve the energy content it must first dry on the ground and after that it can be stored in piles for several months. To shelter the piles from moisture through rain, snow and ice, Walki has developed a paper-based, waterproof cover that can be chipped and burned together with the residue. The importance of ...
