Contrary to the outcome of the “history of war of currents”, the local generation of direct current (DC) power has the technical and economic advantages of emerging as the ultimate choice of power in the 21st century. Local DC power generated by photovoltaics (PV), batteries, electric vehicles (EVs), situational intelligence, intelligent loads, real-time monitoring of grid, cyber security, internet...
The challenge of meeting the corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standards of 2025 is leading to major developments in the transportation sector, not the least of which is the utilization of clean energy sources. Solar energy as a main source of on-board fuel has not been extensively investigated. This paper reports on the usage of solar energy for transportation and investigates the extended driving...
With the advent of low-cost solar photovoltaic (PV) panels and our ability to generate, store, and use electrical energy locally without the need for long-range transmission, the world is about to witness transformational changes in electricity infrastructures. The use of DC electricity enhances systemwide efficiency. DC microgrids and nanogrids powered by solar PV systems and gigawatt batteries for...
