Solar

We drive the transition to more sustainable, reliable, and affordable energy systems. With our innovative technologies, we energize society, that’s our aim!

The increase in extreme weather events and rising sea levels are unmistakable signs of climate change. Roughly 850 million people still live without access to electricity, which is the foundation of sustainable development.

How can we meet the growing demand for electricity while protecting our climate and make planet a better place?

Solar Plant on the Grid

1. Solar Panels: The solar plant consists of photovoltaic (PV) panels installed on a suitable location such as rooftops, open land, or as part of a solar farm. These panels capture sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity through the photovoltaic effect.

2. Inverters: The DC electricity generated by the solar panels is sent to inverters. Inverters convert DC electricity into alternating current (AC) electricity, which is the standard form of electricity used in homes and businesses.

3. Grid Connection: AC electricity from the inverters is then fed into the local electrical grid through transformers and switchgear. This connection allows the solar plant to supply electricity directly to consumers connected to the grid.

4. Net Metering: In many regions, solar plant owners can benefit from net metering policies. During periods of high solar generation, when the plant produces more electricity than is immediately needed locally, excess electricity flows into the grid. Conversely, when the solar plant's output is lower (e.g., at night), electricity is drawn from the grid.

5. Integration and Grid Stability: Solar plants are designed to integrate seamlessly with the grid to ensure stability and reliability of electricity supply. Grid operators manage the fluctuating nature of solar power generation through grid management techniques, storage solutions (like batteries), and complementary power sources (such as wind and hydropower).

Solar Plant Off-Grid

1. Solar Panels: Like grid-connected solar systems, off-grid solar plants include photovoltaic (PV) panels that capture sunlight and convert it into electricity. These panels are typically installed on rooftops or in open spaces with optimal exposure to sunlight.

2. Charge Controller: A charge controller is essential in off-grid solar systems to regulate the charging of batteries. It ensures that batteries are not overcharged or discharged beyond safe levels, thus prolonging battery life.

3. Battery Bank: Off-grid solar systems incorporate battery banks to store excess electricity generated during sunny periods. Batteries store energy in DC form and supply power when sunlight is unavailable, such as during nighttime or cloudy days.

4. Inverter: An inverter converts DC electricity from the solar panels and batteries into alternating current (AC) electricity, which is used to power AC appliances and devices.

5. Backup Generator (optional): Some off-grid systems may include a backup generator powered by fossil fuels or biofuels. This generator provides additional power during prolonged periods of low sunlight or high energy demand.

Hybrid Solar Plant

1. Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Arrays: These are the traditional solar panels that convert sunlight into electricity using the photovoltaic effect.

2. Energy Storage: Hybrid solar plants often include battery storage systems to store excess electricity generated by solar panels during sunny periods. Batteries allow for energy to be used during periods of low sunlight or at night, thereby increasing energy independence and reliability.

3. Backup Generator: Some hybrid solar systems may integrate a backup generator powered by fossil fuels or biofuels. The generator can provide additional power during extended periods of low solar irradiance or high energy demand.

4. Wind Turbines: In certain hybrid setups, wind turbines may complement solar panels to capture wind energy and generate electricity. Wind and solar resources often complement each other seasonally and daily, providing more stable power generation.

5. Hybrid Inverters and Controllers: These components manage the flow of electricity between solar panels, batteries, and other power sources (like wind turbines or generators). They ensure efficient energy conversion and distribution within the hybrid system.

Solar Tree Plant on Grid

1. Design and Structure: A solar tree plant combines aesthetics with functionality, often featuring a central trunk-like pole with solar panels arranged like branches or leaves. This design optimizes solar panel orientation to maximize sunlight exposure throughout the day.

2. Solar Panels: Solar panels are mounted on the branches or canopy of the solar tree. These panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity using photovoltaic technology.

3. Grid Connection: Similar to traditional solar power systems, electricity generated by the solar panels in the solar tree plant can be connected to the electrical grid. This allows for the energy produced to be used locally or fed back into the grid to supply nearby homes, businesses, or other consumers.

Hybrid Solar Tree Plant

1. Solar Panels (PV Modules): The core component of a solar tree plant is solar PV panels arranged in an artistic or functional design resembling the canopy or branches of a tree. These panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity using photovoltaic technology.

2. Wind Turbines: In a hybrid setup, wind turbines can complement solar panels by capturing wind energy and converting it into electricity. Wind turbines can be integrated into the structure of the solar tree or positioned nearby to maximize renewable energy generation.

3. Energy Storage: Hybrid solar tree plants often include energy storage systems, such as batteries, to store excess electricity generated by solar panels and wind turbines. Energy storage allows for energy to be used during periods of low renewable energy generation or high energy demand.

4. Backup Generator (optional): Some hybrid systems may also include a backup generator powered by fossil fuels or biofuels. The generator can provide additional power during extended periods of low solar irradiance, wind conditions, or high energy demand beyond what renewable sources can provide.

5. Hybrid Controllers and Inverters: These components manage the flow of electricity between solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, and the grid. They optimize energy conversion and distribution within the hybrid system to maximize efficiency and reliability.
