DESIGN AND COST ANALYSIS OF A SOLAR POWER SYSTEM FOR BASIC ELECTRICITY LABORATORY

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background of the study

Energy is the total of force or power when applied can move one object from one position to another or Energy defines the capacity of a system to do work. Energy can be found in a number of different forms. Energy exists in everybody whether they are human beings or animals or nonliving things. Input or output of work changes the energy content of a body. Energy can have many forms such as: electrical energy, radiation energy, mechanical energy, potential energy, kinetic energy, chemical energy, thermal energy, magnetic energy and nuclear energy. As example sunlight can be converted to heat thus light is another form of energy [1, 2].

Mainly the energy resources are two types which are nonrenewable and renewable energy, nonrenewable energy resources is a natural resource which can’t be produces or used more than first use, these resources are consumed much faster than natural can create them, for example oil, coal, natural gas and uranium also this type it can’t be last forever [3, 4]. Nonrenewable sources are not environmental friendly and can have serious effect on our health [5, 6]. They are called nonrenewable for the reason that they cannot be re-generated within a short span of time [7]. The world is looking forward to find and make available alternative resources of energy, this is because it is expected that supplies of oil and gas will face shortage in the near future [8]. Renewable energy is energy which comes from natural resource which can be produced and grow or used like more than one time its unlimited resources such as a sunlight, wind, rain tides and geothermal heat [9]. They are available in plenty and by far most the cleanest sources of energy available on this planet [10]. For example energy that we receive from the sun can be used to generate electricity [11].

Similarly, energy from wind [12], geothermal [13], biomass from plants [14], tides can be used to fulfill our daily energy demands [15]. Solar energy is a promising resource and can be obtained easily [16]. However to let the solar energy compete with oil and gas better and high efficiency equipment are required to be developed [17]. Solar cells or photovoltaic have recently become available at acceptable price [18]. However, to enable better performance a tracking system can be developed to follow sun light [19]. Tracking system needs to be designed in a way to use minimum energy. The tracking system is can be design in one axis or more. Nevertheless, if more than one axis used more energy are required to run the system [20, 21].

1.2 Statement of the problem

The rate at which the energy is being produced and consumed can damage our world in many ways. In other words, it helps us to save the environment [22]. We can reduce those impacts by consuming less energy. The cost of energy is rising every year. It is important for us to realize how energy is useful to us and how can we avoid it getting wasted.
