ICSC staff showcase the latest models of the TekPak, a portable solar power generator, at the Manila Mini Maker Faire 2019 at the Mind Museum on June 22. The maker faire will be held until 6 PM of June 23. The TekPak is a sustainable and renewable solution to communications, lighting, medical, and other energy needs. TekPak 4 was designed by ICSC, Frederick Espitola of Solar Pilipinas, and Haiyan survivors. TekPak 5a and 5b were designed by ICSC, RE-Serve volunteers, Solar Scholars and Haiyan survivors, with support from Tuklas Innovation Labs. The units were assembled by Tacloban City Solar Scholars. The TekPak is the key component in the Solar Scholars training program of RE Charge Pilipinas. The program trains residents from disaster-prone and survivor communities to assess their energy needs and to utilize and maintain renewable energy systems, including the TekPak, during emergency and peacetime situations. RE-Charge Pilipinas, a post-Haiyan initiative of the Institute for Climate and Sustainable Cities, has reached seven provinces and continues to work with organizations and communities from all over the Philippines.

Mosman Council is trialling a new solar-powered compactor waste bin. The system automatically compacts rubbish at the point of disposal, dramatically increasing capacity by 5 times the footprint of ordinary bins. It is hoped the new bin will reduce the incidences of litter overflow and waste ending up in our waterways, particularly over the summer months. The increased capacity reduces collection trips and can cut related fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions by 80%.
Safe, easy to use, and designed to keep out pests, the BigBelly has already proven its worth in a variety of environments and will come into its own by keeping out birds and other pests.
You can view this little wonder at Balmoral, where it was installed today.
Grass plus new shoots coming up , by a pathway beside the Trent & Mersey Canal footpath , simple as that , plus sunlight with that extra special magic ! Happy Dragons Day 2018
Washington's largest new solar farm ready for operation.
The solar array in Lind is situated on 200 acres, is the result of a partnership between Avista Utilities and Strata Solar. Strata Solar developed, owns, and operates the solar facility in Lind, which is within Avista’s service area. Avista has a power purchase agreement with Strata Solar to provide the energy generated from the solar array to Avista customers.

15th December. Our first day in India.
I'm surprised solar power isn't used more in India. I guess the capital cost is the problem.
This is a project consisting on a photovoltaic plant of 34 MW divided into four phases using different technologies: one axis tracker, fixed structure and adaptable solar structures in summer and winter.

Kyle and Cory Wilson of Samuel Grossi & Sons Inc. install steel beams while building a solar power car charging station at the General Electric plant on Woodford Avenue in Plainville on Wednesday afternoon.
A solar-powered night light I made recently. It uses:
(a) The Joule Thief circuit from here:

(b) A Super Capacitor (100 Farads !)
(c) A flexible solar cell (ebay)
(d) A PNP transistor to hold the joule thief off, while light is falling on the solar cell.
Energy Secretary Moniz checks out Sunfolding an innovative solar technology launched by ARPA-E awardee Otherlab. Sunfolding offers a novel approach to the design of heliostats -- the mirror devices used to reflect sunlight as part of a concentrating solar power system. Sunfolding’s heliostats are made with cheap, easily accessible materials like soda bottles and have the potential to dramatically reduce costs associated with concentrating solar power technologies. | Photo by Sarah Gerrity, Energy Department.
Although the DIY Solar Panels are working, the current angle of the sun's arc is passing through a lot of very tall pine trees, blocking most of the sunlight. It is however enough to see the grid-tie inverter is working, and goes to sleep every evening. I can unplug/turn off the breaker the inverter is tied to, and the inverter shuts off it's output. Look at the note on the photo, it'll show you where the DIY Solar Panels are located temporarily.
Here's the formula for mounting solar panels in your area:
Tilt Angle of the Panels = Latitude(your location) + 15degrees , Locate the array in an unshaded area facing the equator (true south) and tilted as described in the formula above.
Anxious for "SPRING" in order to build more panels, and mount them all in a better location
The sound systems for live entertainment at the festival were powered by solar generators. Yay for alternative energy!

When the sun shines, the gears whir and the prism revolves, casting light about the room. No sun today.
