Portable Integrated Solar Energy System for Cluster Power Applications

总结

Most commercially available portable solar panel kits are meant for individual or family / single household use. For a post disaster environment, the population tends to group together and help each other thus pooling resources more effectively. Post-Disaster clusters can be evacuation centers, relief camps, temporary health zones, and other ad-hoc community zones. Most Solar Kits (or Renewable Energy kits) are either too small to power such clusters or too bulky and complex to transport and install.The technology described herein is related to the development of a a portable, integrated solar photovoltaic (PV) energy system which is designed primarily for cluster electrification, providing power for areas with no direct access to electricity (e.g. households, villages, communities, rural areas, camps, Post-Disaster Use: preparedness, response, & rehabilitation). The integrated energy system consisting of the foldable PV panels, charge controllers and lead acid batteries generates DC output power which can be used to enable lighting, mobile phone charging, small device and appliance power use. The technology may be used for applications including but not limited to disaster preparedness, relief, response, & rehabilitation, households, communities, military/defense, agriculture, aquaculture, fishing, outdoor recreation, and other off-grid applications. Prototypes have been developed and deployed in multiple disaster relief operations. Aside from the technology know-how in developing the integrated power system, the technology provider also possesses rich experience in deploying the system in remote areas and is seeking for industry partnership to commercialise the technology. 

技术优势

For each integrated solar energy system used, one saves approximately USD 0.90 per night worth of kerosene for lighting, approximately USD 0.20 - 0.40 per mobile phone unit fully charged, and mitigates security risks and enables clustered populations to survive post-disaster situations more bearably. During normal periods, an investment in such a product can be recovered in < 3 years if used on a daily basis.
