Solar Powered Air Conditioner | Solar AC:   You might have heard of air conditioner. But have you ever heard about Air Conditioner without power bill. Here is about air conditioner, which runs on solar. Till today our AC's were running on power grid, it means on electric power. Now we have Hybrid Solar AC , an intelligent air conditioner, which runs on solar panels. This works like our conventional Air Conditioner. The only difference is the present one runs on electric grid, where as Hybrid Solar AC has three power options 1. Solar Power 2. Battery Bank 3. Electricity Grid. Approximately a 1 ton split Solar AC costs Rs. 99,000, and 1.5 ton costs around Rs. 1,39,000 including Solar Panels, Solar Inverter and complete accessories. The price may slightly differ, depending on brand and the supporting accessories they are providing along. How it Solar AC works : Solar AC runs, directly using solar power and at the same time solar panel will charge the battery bank. Solar battery ...

What is Biosolar Roof and benefits of Installing a Biosolar Roof: Many people only think in terms of having either a green roof or solar power. The combination of these two technologies is common in other countries such as Switzerland, Germany and Austria. This combination is referred to as Biosolar roofs . Green roof and solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are two technologies that could contribute to sustainable building development and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Integrating them can enhance the way they work and their overall effectiveness by cooling and shading effects. The results of various experiments show a positive outcome from this integration: green roof surface and soil temperatures are reduced from the shading and higher power output of PV panels is achieved from the cooling effect.the PV system on integrated approach generated 8.3% more electricity than the stand-alone option. The degree of benefit gained will depend on the system design and whether the ...

Allpowers 18V 5W Portable Solar Car Battery Charger When the battery is fully drained and we cant take your car out. This is best alternative to use. This compact, portable car charger was designed with rapid battery charging in mind. It comes complete with suction cups, alligator clip connectors, and a car battery adapter. Unlike some chargers, this one is designed to deliver rapid charge, to get a car started in an emergency. Features: Wattage: 5W; 18V Charging Ports: Alligator clips, cigarette lighter.

Solarized Apartments: The Bangalore Apartment Federation (BAF) is planning to set up solar rooftop, on approximately 1,000 apartments in the next two years of time. Apartments have been at the forefront of sustainability by efficiently managing resources like water, waste & energy to help build a green, sustainable & livable Bengaluru. They are opting OPEX model , where the vendor will invest initially for the set-up, and charge the apartment on a monthly basis. This way, apartment owners need not worry about the initial investment. The charges generally work out to be cheaper than what they pay BESCOM, which charges Rs. 7.65 to Rs. 8.00 per unit. With solarpanels, it costs Rs.6.00 to Rs.6.5 per unit. Who is Bangalore Association Federation (BAF): If you are a owner or tenant living in Bangalore Apartment Federation, you can join this group https://apartmentadda.com/bangalore-apartments-federation/home and Participate in our online discussions.

Floating Solar Panels A total of 1.1 gigawatts(GW) of solar have been installed around the world as of September, according to a new report by the World Bank . That's similar to the amount of traditional solar panel's capacity that had been installed around the world in the year 2000, the report says. The World Bank expects that, like traditional solar 18 years ago, we're likely to see an explosion of floating solar over the next two decades. Floating solar is picking up in the US, China, Japan, the UK, India. In India the first floating PV plant of 10 KW was installed in a lake, in Kolkata, in 2014. Recently a 100 KW floating solar power plant was installed in NTPC Kayamkulam, in Kerala which is the largest  system in India. The floating platform was indigenously developed by NTPC’s Energy Technology Research Alliance and the Central Institute of Plastic Engineering and Technology . To grow solar farms,converting fertile agricultural and other productive land ...

Solar Bicycle Madurai based innovator M Manikandan has developed a solar bicycle that runs on a pair of 12-volt batteries, powered by a solar panel and a DC motor. At slow speed it goes at 8 km per hour, at medium speed it can touch 10 km per hour, and in high speed it can cruise at 15 km per hour. The solar bicycle offered the rider the option to set their desired speed level. “You can adjust the speed while riding, or shift to the pedaling mode while on the move. The batteries take about seven hours for a full-charge. You can ride non-stop for three and a half hours when the batteries are fully charged. Rs. 5000/- spent to modify a regular Hercules bicycle into a solar powered one. This is the starting of solar bicycles in India. In the near future we expect solar bicycles on road, with reasonable prices. Hope manufacturers come forward to workout on this project, so that it will be accessible for every citizen.

Portable Solar Panels: We have been using solar panels as it has become a cheaper alternative to fossil fuels and an environmental friendly options for homes, on space for satellites and now its the time for handy solar panels. You might be thinking how can we carry solar panels along with us. Here we are, now there are lightweight, portable, longer lifetime and offer an array of features, in market that can be used to charge power items such as tablets, cameras, GPS devices, 12-volt batteries, construction tools, picnics and medical equipment.and other mobile electronics. We could also use these portable solar panels for bicycles, as these bicycles has become a trend, going in these vehicles to offices, in cosmopolitan and metropolitan cities. India may start manufacturing bicycle's running on solar, in the coming years. Below are list of best uses of portable solar panel Charge a Laptop Charge a Cell Phone Charge a Portable Music Player Provide Electricity for a C...
