The solar electric system includes solar panels that consist of photovoltaic cells. These solar cells are made of silicon semiconductors. When the sun rays hit the solar panel, the solar heat knocks electrons out of their atoms. The released electrons flow through the panel to generate electricity.
Eco-Sun-Wind provides various types of solar power generation systems that are suitable for small homes. The Eco S-80 watt DC small home system, offered by the company, includes an 80-watt photovoltaic panel. The solar panel converts the solar energy into electricity. Other components of the solar power system include a battery and a charge controller. The sealed lead acid battery of the solar electric system features 110 ampere hours. This deep cycle solar battery stores the electricity produced by PV panel.
The Northwind 100 wind turbine is designed for isolated and remote areas. Its power converter design offers power to local grids. This wind generator incorporates fiberglass reinforced blades with an aerodynamic design.
The Nordex N100 (2.5MW) wind turbine is constructed for moderate and low wind conditions. The N100 is grid compatible and is available in 50Hz and 60Hz version. This wind turbine can be mounted on a 100m steel tube towers.
Magnum Teknologies supplies Lakota wind turbines. The Lakota SC wind turbine is equipped with low inertia blades, which are made of aerospace grade and uni-directional carbon fiber. These low inertia blades are designed with “Stealth-Acoustic” technology, which helps the blades to operate without any noise. The helicopter leading edge tape on the blades are stiffer than steel. With these leading edge tape and “Stealth-Acoustic technology, the blades provide smooth and quiet operation than plastic, injection molded, wood or fiberglass reinforced blades.
Hush Wind Power manufactures 1.5m wind turbine. This wind turbine has a compact design and is tolerant to harsh wind conditions. It requires minimal maintenance and has the capability to operate smoothly even during low wind conditions. It generates about 5 to 6 kilowatt hours of power on a daily basis. The round-shaped 1.5m wind turbine consists of smooth outer edges and is suitable for commercial and residential applications.
TXU Energy in partnership with SolarCity has launched an innovative solar program in North Texas that will provide the homeowners in the region with solar power systems that may enable them to save money from day one on energy costs.
Nevada Geothermal Power has restarted its operations in the Faulkner 1 power plant. A temporary solution to resume operations in the plant has enabled the company to restart two of three generators, but at reduced levels of output. Due to engineering considerations related to the interim repair plan, the output has been limited to 13 MW. The plant is expected to operational fully by March, after the permanent repair plan is completed.
Bloom Energy Corporation, a company based in Silicon Valley, has launched Bloom Energy Server, which uses solid oxide fuel cell technology. This fuel cell is more reliable, cleaner as well as affordable. It is a cheaper alternative to grid electricity as well as conventional renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and biomass. The Bloom Energy Server can be used by clients as a clean energy source for distributed power production onsite.
The Energy Alternatives division of Cupertino Electric has completed the installations of 360-kW and 36-kW solar photovoltaic systems in the cities of Pleasanton and Novato, respectively. The systems were designed and built as per the needs of these cities by Cupertino Electric. The solar power systems are installed on the cities corporate yards’ rooftops.
