India is a power deficit country and one third of its homes are off grid or near off grid. This paper presents an efficient and affordable Solar DC solution for powering such homes. Though several solutions have emerged in the past for powering these homes, those have been expensive and energy inefficient. These solutions rely on several DC to AC and AC to DC conversions, to feed the widely used AC...
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...
Solar energy is experiencing significant growth that is expected to continue. The forecast is that solar will make up 25% of all new distributed generation capacity growth through 2023. As solar installations continue to increase, UL will have an opportunity to partner with other industry stakeholders to develop new standards and codes that will be instrumental in developing new technologies. We believe...
This paper discussed the advantages and challenges of DC microgrid for commercial building. The data obtained from the DC microgrid constructed at Xiamen University shows that DC microgrid with rooftop solar system is an efficient way to power varies DC loads inside the building. The capacity of the solar system on the rooftop normally will be enough to power the LED light loads in commercial buildings,...
