2. Renewable energy :-
Renewable energy is energy which comes from natural
resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal
heat.
which are renewable (naturally replenished)
Renewable energy provides 19% of electricity generation
worldwide.
3. Types :-
Wind power
Hydropower
Solar energy
Biomass
Biofuel
Geothermal energy
4. Solar Energy :-
Solar energy is the energy derived from the sun through the form
of solar radiation.
Solar powered electrical generation relies on photovoltaic.
e.g.:- Solar photovoltaic cells(solar panels), Heat Engine,
solar heat collectors
Solar energy utilization
5. Why it is required soon ?
From last century mostly the power is produced by Hydro Carbon fuel.
Conventional and Hydro Carbon energy resources are constant
in nature .
Soon conventional resource will go to finish .
Sun power is longtime and reliable , (it have very long term commitment)
8. Solar panels-
Flat plate solar collectors system
Concentrated photovoltaic's (CPV) systems
1.
CVP-
9. Concentrated solar power:-
also called concentrating solar power and CSP
systems use mirrors or lenses to concentrate a large area of
sunlight, or solar thermal energy, onto a small area.
Electrical power is produced when the concentrated light is
converted to heat, which drives a heat engine connected to an
electrical power generator
12. SSP- SOLAR SPACE POWER
Space-based solar power (SBSP) is the concept of collecting
solar power in space for use on Earth
It has been in research since the early 1970s.
The SBSP concept, originally known as Satellite Solar Power
System (SSPS),
13. SSP Built in Components :-
A Satellite
Concentrating mirrors
Photovoltaic cell convertor (sunlight to Electricity)
Microwave transmitter / LASER Transmitter
Microwave/ LASER converter (MW to Electricity) **
Power controller & distribution
14. Method:-
It use the method of collecting the Solar power in space and
then supply on to the Earth by means of transmitting power
in the form of Microwaves , LASER beam.
method of transmitting power over long distances .
(e.g., from an SPS to Earth's surface) using microwaves from a
very large antenna (up to one square kilometer) on the
satellite to a much larger one, now known as a rectenna, on
the ground.
18. • No air & clouds in space, so the collecting surfaces could
receive much more intense sunlight, unobstructed by weather
A satellite could be illuminated over 99% of the time
(Earth's shadow on satellite comes only 16 minutes)
Higher collection rate: In space,
collection in orbit is approximately 144% of the maximum
attainable on Earth's surface.
Longer collection period:
