FOCUSES ON: EDUCATION, RESEARCH, AND OUTREACH IN RENEWABLE ENERGY AND TECHNOLOGY HARDWARE: WIND TURBINES, OFF-GRID POWER SYSTEMS, AND SOLAR CELLS System Modeling and Renewable Technology (SMART) Ingram School of Engineering

I wonder… How efficient are the solar panels in the SMART lab? Are they taking in all of the sun’s energy possible?

A little background Reaching Earth: 1400 Watts/m 2 Solar spectrum: Ultraviolet, Visible, and Infrared “The amount of solar energy that falls on the Earth’s surface in 40 minutes = the total annual energy consumption of all the world’s people.” –Texas Solar Energy Society

How do we measure effectively? Area of material intended to absorb light (m 2 ) Ascertain the amount of energy that reaches that specific surface. (AKA Irradiance) But… Light can be at different intensities at different times of the day. the answer is… Insolation = Power x Time / Area

What is out there? APRS World: $ $30 Apogee Instruments: $ Campbell Scientific: Request a quote Solar-Log: $277.00

Our approach We found: Robotshop: $10.45Rohm Semiconductor: $0.51 Osram: $0.82 UltravioletVisible Infrared

Our approach 3 sensors to implement Record and average data at certain time interval Transmit data over Freescale’s THREAD protocol to server and upload data to web page Budget (for one array):  <$50

Non-technical constraints Environmental: None Social: None Manufacturability: Opportunities to be explored
