TRANSACTIONS ON POWER ELECTRONICS‚ VOL. 24‚ NO. 5‚ MAY 2009 Comprehensive Approach to Modeling and Simulation of Photovoltaic Arrays Marcelo Gradella Villalva‚ Jonas Rafael Gazoli‚ and Ernesto Ruppert Filho Abstract—This paper proposes a method of modeling and simulation of photovoltaic arrays. The main objective is to find the parameters of the nonlinear I–V equation by adjusting the curve at three points: open circuit‚ maximum power‚ and short circuit. Given these three points‚ which are provided

The Power of Solar Storms To Our Fragile Planet Natural disasters occur when least expected all over the world. Disasters affect countless lives and cost millions of dollars. Hurricanes‚ tornados‚ and tsunamis occur with such regularity throughout the world that society has developed warning systems and is prepared to rebound from these disasters as quickly as possible. One disaster that most people do not think about is solar storms. Research shows that solar storms have been documented since the

SOLAR ENERGY INTRODUCTION SOLAR ENERGY is the radiant energy that we receive from the sun in the form of heat and light. It is an inexhaustible source of energy. Solar Energy is the ultimate source of most of the sources of energy that we use. The wind energy‚ water energy‚ energy of fossil fuels and the energy in food are due to solar energy. SOURCE OF SOLAR ENERGY The discovery of radioactivity led some scientists to suggest that the energy released during radioactive decay of radioactive

Solar Panels : Solar panels are an eco-friendly electric generator. Solar panels generate electrical power from the sun by converting sunlight to electricity with no moving parts‚ zero emissions‚ and no maintenance. The solar panel‚ the first component of a electric solar energy system‚ is a collection of individual silicon cells that generate electricity from sunlight. The basic component of a solar panel is solar cell or photovoltaic cell. Solar cell: A solar cell or photovoltaic cell

Solar Absorbers and the Future of Electricity Solar Absorbers and the Future of Electricity By James Folta Electricity is what we use to power things at home or at school. You can probably look around right now and see an electrical outlet or two. Everything that we plug into one of these outlets uses electricity. But where does this electricity come from? Right now we have a few ways to make electricity. Some are better than others. There are some scientists who are trying to find
