THE SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC $1 a watt DIY Solar Panel Part 2 Make your own solar panel series Bus Wire


This is part 2 and covers the basics for beginners + The cells I am using are all broken cells I purchased for a discount from Ebay. They were all fully pre-tabbed cells. They are the long tab or fully tabbed NOT the clipped tabs. This panel will cost about $60 completed and requires about 1-3 hours of work + resin embedding cure times which are best applied overnight. Part 3 will detail the embedding process and adding an optional blocking diode. How To Build A Solar Panel. Part 1 : www.youtube.com DIY solder foil: www.youtube.com

Permaculture and Solar Photovoltaic Panels


Solar panels are expensive things, both in terms of money and the energy needed to produce them. Do they fit into a low-impact, permaculture lifestyle? How do they measure up against other sources of renewable energy? A good discussion on the subject, filmed at the Hampshire Green Fair 2011

This a tour with details of an off-grid solar power installation I worked on a few years ago. I go over a system diagram, show the system itself, and then talk about the safety features including breakers/fuses, lightning arrestors, and bonding equipment to ground. This system includes 2100watts of solar panels, a 10kW diesel generator, two Outback FM-80 charge controllers, two Outback inverters, an Outback Mate, a Xantrex TMA-500 battery status monitor, and 6 4volt, 1104amphour Surrette/Rolls lead acid deep cycle batteries. Thanks to Ottawa Solar Power (ottawasolarpower.com) for allowing me to use this installation in this off-grid solar power video. For more on solar power, see rimstar.org - rimstar.org

SOLAR WEED Weedeater Weed Whacker Trimmer PV Photovoltaic Lawn Tools


All brands of rechargeable trimmers have a battery life issue because they need to remain lightweight. Over time the charge controller board does not allow for a good deep battery charge so they only last a minute. You can find them at yard sales all the time. If you have a spare panel with MC connectors this is a fun easy fix. An external charge controller (not shown) can be added for quick solar charges needed in heavily shaded areas. You can use up to a 50 ft extension cord before voltage becomes a problem. Great solution for larger yards far from power. No more burning up electric AC trimmers with 200 ft of cord. I guess you could use a gas trimmer but the exhaust is very bad for you.

Sharnbrook School Solar Photovoltaic (PV) installation


Wirsol has completed its first UK solar project, installing a 29.6 kilowatt system at Sharnbrook School in Bedfordshire. The leading German solar provider, which has recently opened a UK-based office, completed the installation in just five working days. The 29.6 kWp installation provides electricity for the school's new building and to help control energy costs in the overall expansion of the school premises. Wirsol utilised Yingli solar panels and SMA inverter stations at Sharnbrook, which is the first in a line of projects scheduled to receive solar installations by the company, for regional colleges and schools in both the public and private sector. Peter Davies, Managing Director of Wirsol UK said, "Having opened for business here in the Kettering area only a few weeks ago, and with our clients' residential and commercial premises already benefitting from Wirsol's solar PV installations, it is exciting for us now to see the completion of our first - of what we plan to be very many - education sector projects. Wirsol is expanding rapidly in the UK, hiring staff at all levels, from experienced company directors to installation experts right across the UK, as we intend to become a key national solar PV player during 2011." Kirk Sharp, Deputy Head Teacher at Sharnbrook, and the school's project manager for the all the recent construction said, "As part of the continuing expansion of our facilities here, we had been naturally concerned by the probable big increase in our <b>...</b>

Infoclip: Photovoltaic Energy


+++THIS VIDEO ORIGINATED FROM THE EUROPA AUDIO/VISUAL SERVICE WEBSITE+++ To illustrate the decisions on the energy package presented to the European Commission on 23/1/2008, the EC's audiovisual service has produced an infoclip on photovoltaic energy. The Serpa Solar Plant, in Portugal, is one of the largest producers of solar energy in the world. Its construction was completed in January 2007 and the plant's 52000 panels cover an area of 60 hectares. Enough electricity is produced to power 8000 homes and farms in the Alentejo Region which reduces greenhouse gas emissions by over 30000 tons per year. The European Union granted 3675576.63 euros to help co-finance the project. This infoclip includes the following : - aerial views of the solar plant - solar panels - transformers.
