Renewable Energy SCIE90014 Assignment 1: Pros and Cons of Solar PV and Solar CSP compare small-scale roof top PV with large-scale PV and CSP. There are different types of solar energy‚ but we tend to compare the two most popular types‚ Solar CSP and PV since they are commercialised. The main difference between the two is that photovoltaic systems directly convert the solar energy to electricity‚ while concentrated CSP first convert the solar energy into thermal energy and then into electrical energy

Isaac Solar Ice Maker Solar Icemaker Up to 1000 pounds of ice per day! Low cost and reliable source of ice for situations requiring 25 to 1000 pounds of ice per day (12-450kg). "Isaac" is the acronym for Intermittent Solar Ammonia Absorption Cycle. Ammonia absorption refrigeration technology was developed in the 19th century and is still used in industrial applications. Energy Concepts has adopted this technology to a machine which uses the sun as the only energy output. The particular advances

Solar Powered Traffic Light Solar traffic lights are signaling devices powered by solar panels positioned at road intersections‚ pedestrian crossings and other locations to control the flows of traffic. They assign the right of way to road users by the use of lights in standard colors (red - amber/yellow - green)‚ using a universal color code (and a precise sequence to enable comprehension by those who are color blind). Most of the solar traffic lights have battery back-up for functioning during

Introduction "A "light bulb" now exists that does not use any conventional energy. Introducing the Solar Bottle Bulb -- an alternative source of daylight powered by the sun. It is made from an old soda bottle. By filling it with water and sealing it into the roof‚ the water refracts the sun’s rays and provides about 55 watts of light to a darkened room. This was invented in 2006 by students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). It can be built and installed in less than 1 hour

Interview Assignment People from different parts of the world have been migrating to the United States for hundreds of years. During the 1920s and 1950s‚ there was a huge wave of Italian immigrants voyaging to our country. More than four million Italians had left their country and traveled by boat for seven dreadful‚ agonizing days before arriving in America. Travelers took their first steps on U.S. soil in Ellis Island‚ the federal immigration station‚ where Italians had to pass medical and

ASTOUNDING SOLAR ENERGY FACTS What is solar energy? People often think of solar energy as solar panels mounted on roofs in sunny neighborhoods. This is only part of solar energy (“Solar energy facts‚”2012). Solar energy is the oldest energy source. Plants‚ animal and the microbial life have been using it as a principle energy source since the times of creation. It is in the form of heat and light. In the past years‚ people have tapped solar energy enabling it to be used at all times; including
