Poles along the length of the SolarWalk are topped with unique, hand-made pole toppers. Each topper is fitted with an LED light inside the colored bulb.

Some notes about the components.

D1 is a generic signal diode, which prevents the capacitor from discharging through the solar cell. I use some re-cycled parts in my projects - this came from a faulty power supply.

T1 is a PNP transistor, the type isn't critical. They are less common than the NPN types.

The 100R resistor limits the current to the joule thief.

T2 is an NPN type transistor, again it is not critical which you use. I've found most compact fluorescent lamps have at least one NPN transistor which can be harvested after the lamp fails.

The inductor needs to be hand-made, the ferrite ring also came from an old CFL.

D2 is a white LED.

{Solar Hot Water} Carringon Middle School, located in Durham North Carolina, houses over 1000 students from grades 6-8. The 8-panel solar hot water system was designed with the school’s cafeteria as its central focus. The cafeteria is the campus’s main source for hot water use, rolling out thousands of meals a week. Our structure now supplements their demand with water that has been heated by the sun, and stored for on-demand use in the cafeteria kitchen. BRE’s solar thermal structure is expected to save the equivalent of about 400,000 gallons of natural gas in 2010, as well as reduce over 8,500

A nice fresh installation at home.. This will keep the thumbscrews on the power bills :))

I still cant get over watching the electric meter not moving at all, while we have 2 computers, a washing macine, etc running in the house.. I really should know better, being an electrical engineer, but it still looks magic ;))

Beauty break in the weather for another fantastic Great Climate Race event.

On Thursday, May 3rd, 2012, 46 people from the Mahtomedi Area came together to learn how they can add a solar system to their own home.

Beauty break in the weather for another fantastic Great Climate Race event.

This is part of a series of photos, Google satellite images and Google street-view images of the Solar Powered FKP Building at 120 Edward St (corner of Edward St and Charlotte St) Brisbane. The FKP Building is Australia's first "Building - Integrated Solar Power Project".

 

The FKP Building is the first integrated solar power generating building in Australia and it is the hope of the "Infinity Club" that many more projects like this will be started in the future.

 

With the introduction of new polymer based solar power generating technologies, it is now possible to generate 3 to 5 times as much power as is currently generated on Earth... If all buildings, structures and houses are outfitted with solar panels.

 

The technology is now here to make the move from a fossil fuel based economy to a solar based economy and make a real impact on global warming and climate change.

IVANPAH, CALIFORNIA, APRIL 04 2013: Tower 2 and its heliostats at sunrise at the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility.

 

Located in the Mojave Desert 40 miles southwest of Las Vegas, The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System is a solar thermal power project, currently under construction, with a planned capacity of 392 megawatts gross, enough to power approximately 140,000 houses. It will deploy 173,500 heliostat mirrors spread over approximately 3,500 acres, focusing solar energy on boilers located atop three solar power towers, generating steam to turn a conventional steam turbine. The project – owned by NRG Solar, Google and BrightSource Energy – is currently the largest solar thermal plant under construction in the world. The project is being constructed by Bechtel.

Inspired by the traditional all-night concerts along India’s Ganges River, Sun to Stars evokes the traditional durbar and bethak-style concerts where performers and audiences interact in an informal setting to create an intimate artistic experience. With a backdrop defined by both natural and urban elements, the performers present work that grapples with the environment, be it through mythological folktales or a particular raga connected to nature.

 

The Sun to Stars festival is solar-powered by the energy collected by the photovoltaic panels on the Solar 1 roof. The event also features a market place that includes regional South Asian cuisine from local chefs, Indian style seating with floor rugs and cushions, and information about important local South Asian and environmental nonprofit organizations.

Bold Nebraska and Pipeline Fighters installed solar panels in the path of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, on Diana and "Stix" Steskal's Prairierose Farm near Atkinson, NE on Saturday, Sept. 16.

 

Donate $25 now to put solar in the path of KXL: bit.ly/solarxl

 

This second Solar XL project installation follows the first solar panels that were installed on the farm of Jim and Chris Carlson on the KXL pipeline route. Details for the 3rd Solar XL installation site announced soon!

 

The families partnered with Solar XL project sponsors Bold Nebraska, 350.org, Indigenous Environmental Network, CREDO, and Oil Change International to put renewable energy directly in the pipeline’s path. Solar XL underscores the need to center solutions to climate change while rejecting the Keystone XL pipeline and resisting the expansion of the fossil fuel industry.

Do we have to choose just one?

Peng Zhou, a postdoctoral research fellow, conducts an experiment on the roof of the Wilson Student Team Project Center on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Friday morning, October 14, 2022. In the background are PhD students Ishtiaque Navid and Yuyang Pan. Pan is a first year PhD student and is learning from Zhou and Navid.

 

Zhou and other members of Zetian Mi’s research group are using the large magnifying glass to focus the sunlight directly on a small semiconductor covered in water. The solar energy is used to separate the hydrogen and oxygen into individual elements. “Basically, we’re using green energy to extract hydrogen from water,” said Professor Zetian Mi.

Sketchnote of Dr David Jones' Printed organic power cells from TEDx Melbourne at Swinburne University Sunday 26 May 2013.

There is as yet no electricity in the Phobjikha valley, and you can see small solar panels in many places. Gangtey monastery is famous for it's elaborate woodcarvings
