South Jersey Industries announced the functioning of its solar panel projects at its two local facilities. These solar panel projects have started to generate electricity. The commissioning of these projects is part of the company’s goal to reduce carbon footprint.
A wind turbine on-site has been installed at Heritage Aviation, the newly constructed General Aviation Facility at the Burlington International Airport. This 100kW wind turbine is a Northwind 100, manufactured by Northern Power of Barre VT. A solar hot water system and a 25kW solar electric system have also been installed by Heritage Aviation to complete its on-site portfolio of renewable energy generation.
Puget Sound Energy has seen a rapid growth of its customers connecting their small business or home solar system to the utility in 2009, making it as the fastest-growing year for renewably energy. With the addition of nearly 200 solar systems installed by its customers, the total number of grid-connected systems has increased to 516 making it the largest producer of renewable energy from customer’s solar arrays in Washington. In the year 2007, the total number of customers connected to the PSE grid was only 100. The total generating capacity from the customer’s solar systems has increased to 2 MW.
The EnviroStor solar water heater incorporates 1½ inches single coil. However, dual coils are available with models having 80 to 119 gallon capacity. The solar storage tank and coil feature Cglass porcelain enamel glass lines. The storage tank and coil offer high resistance to aggressive water. Due to the presence of enamel glass lines, the storage tank and coil are not prone to damages caused by chlorides present in the water.
Oxford Solar provides the Sunny 28 flat plate solar collector from SolarFocus. The solar thermal collector is made from a material that is resistant to both rust and corrosion. Materials like wood, plastic, or rubber seals are not used in the manufacture of solar collector. The surface absorber of the flat plate collector is fully featured with selective blue line. The solar collector includes a glass cover made of 4mm solar safety glass that offers 92 percent solar transmission.
Northstar Energy designs and installs solar heating systems for domestic and commercial applications. The solar hot water heating system offered by the company is designed to provide hot water every day using solar energy, and to reduce carbon emission up to 1 ton per year. It offers free hot water all through the year. This solar heating system reduces energy bills, and produces 60 to 75 percent of hot water.
LBI Solar designs and installs photovoltaic systems. The company provides solar panels from Sanyo and BP Solar. The system designers at LBI Solar can also provide customized solar panels as per the requirement of the customers.
JBS Solar and Wind installs solar panels for commercial, agricultural and residential purposes. Collectors are the important component of any solar system. Apricus collectors available from JBS Solar and Wind help the solar panels to convert solar energy into heat for heating water and space heating during winter.
SunEdison and Southwestern Public Service Company, Xcel Energy’s regional operating company, have signed a 20-year solar power services agreement (SPSA) for five solar installations that are to be installed in New Mexico. The total generating capacity is 50 MW with each installation capable of generating 10 MW of solar power.
The grid-tie PV system interfaces with the utility meter and transfers the extra energy to the utility grid. The process of converting DC power into AC power and then transferring the extra power to the utility grid is done with inverters. The inverters without batteries operate through utility power or with the battery backup system.
