Applied solar electricity in buildings

UNIVERSALITY OF THE SUN

In an attempt to present solar power to you all in an attractive,
inspiring, and comprehensible manner, I have designed the following standard solar power systems, for domestic and light industrial purposes, and named them after the planets in our solar system. " The Planets Suite" They are based on my quarter century of practical experience in designing and installing such systems..

The average daily solar energy delivery is calculated at the "equinox" ( mid season) with a daily average solar insolation level of 5.5 peak sun hours, as typical of Mediterranean climates, such as Perth, Western Australia, Lat 32 deg South. The watt-hours produced are nett,ie, genuine energy available for use, after system losses.

So That 1000 watt-hours = 1 Kilowatt-hour = 1 unit of electricity, as you would be familiar with on your power bill.

The "Planets Suite" is designed to be used in conjunction with the existing mains supply. If you wish to use them as "stand alone" then battery capacities will need to be increased by a factor of 3 to 5 times depending on latitude and cloud factor.

Grid switched

"Grid Switched" is the term I have coined, to describe the operation of my proprietory solar energized, building scale, Uninteruptable Power Supply. (U.P.S ) Thus it becomes a Solar Uninterruptable Power Supply (S.U.P.S) !

It is a "Non grid feeding system", which value adds the precious solar resource, by it's intelligent and selective application within the building. As well as generating energy, it substantially enhances the lifespan of valuable and sensitive appliances. These are often mysteriously damaged over time, by a corrupt and volatile mains supply, contaminated with harmonic distortions, surges and voltage spikes, induced by high power, neigboring equipments, such as air conditioning compressore, arc welders etc.

Grid switched systems supply certain power points with solar electricity, and other power points from the mains. Non priority appliances automatically revert to mains power depending on weather conditions and state of charge of the energy storage system ( battery), leaving priority circuits such as computers, lighting, office equipment, communications etc continuously on pure, stable solar power. Grid switched systems, because they can be electrically isolated from the mains, provide an "electrical firewall",in "solar mode", protecting sensitive, valuable appliances from damaging mains borne disturbances and outages.

Which panel ?

As environmental and fuel crises deepen with every passing month, and fossil based society begins to convulse, renewable energies will take their rightful place at centre stage.
As far as photo-voltaic power generation is concerned, it is the "Thin Film" technologies that offer the greatest advantages.

The factories that produce them, can be built at a small fraction of the cost of factories producing 50 year old crystalline types, and consume comparatively miniscule amounts of raw materials and energy.
Thin film panels offer the ultimate in sustainable, mass production potential, and this will prove critical, for to stabilise the environment, time is of the essence. If you unwittingly purchase crystalline solar panels, sadly, you are merely grafting wings onto a brick ! Click on the following link and arm yourselves....with knowledge and truth, and make a difference ! Manufacturing processes. Please see page 16 and 17 of the Solar Technology Designers Manual.

STOP PRESS :

If you study the "History archive" section, you will observe the natural evolution of Photo-Voltaic technology, which was mono-crystal cells dating from the 1960's, then poly crystal in the early 1980's, through to advanced multi-junction, amorphous thin film in the mid 1990's.
The overwhelming superiority of the best amorphous panels is amply demonstrated in the case studies of the "Solar installations" section. We have used nothing else but Uni-Solar US-64's for the past 12 years, and have never regretted it. Out of many thousands sold, not a single report of degraded performance or failure, or a single warranty claim. Now we move on to the third generation of thin film technologies, with even better performance, exemplified in our latest price lists.
Thank you for reading this far...Well done ! Now listen ! I am a scientist not a technobabbling salemen ! Unfortunately, most operators in this industry will try and sell you anything, and justify it with pathetic excuses. They don't care about contributing towards technological advancement, or the emancipation of society
from the "Barons of Fossildom", and their bankers and shareholders. Wake up ! If you have a mind to invest in the future, then for goodness sake support the development of superior technologies, for they are the key to the widepread and meaningful inplementation of solar generated power on our beleagured mother Earth !!!

Rebate's

And now I will teach thee of the Sun. For the will of the masters are as one !
Firstly, cast thy eye around, the band of the rainbow makes no sound,
yet there, within its ethereal glare, a Virtual Reality is laid bare !

So, watt does this wonderment mean ? In essenes, if you want a good result, and you want a rebate, better you pray to God, for he was a good carpenter.

Alternatively, If you want an advanced, Organic and Sustainable energy solution, for your home or business, no matter watt it may be, stay tuned, and study Revelations,
( and this site ) they may do you good. That is it's intent.

More revelations to follow soon.

Energetically yours.
