I have two solar panels I would like to use occasionally when sailing, and rather than any new hard wiring/re-wiring would like to connect the controller to the batteries using a cigarette lighter plug into a already present socket at the nav station

Is this feasible? Any risks?

I am considering having solar fitted and a friend has recommended Sustain-UK as that is the company that installed his. They say they can get 10 panels on the roof for ￡4200 but currently have a cancelled order for a 9 panel system on the van and I can have it installed all in for ￡3600.. They say it will generate just under 3KW..

￡3600 sounds too cheap to me.

Any advice if this is worth it price wise?

The solar energy is amazing

The led tube light with energy saving, environmental protection, high efficiency, long life and other characteristics, are more and more people sought after. Currently in the domestic market can be seen everywhere, domestic and foreign production of various brands of LED daylight lamp, quality is uneven, is often difficult to choose, I do not know how to distinguish each enterprise production LED fluorescent lamp quality and performance, with everybody here simply introduce?

ReneSola helps Amaize Restaurant cuts energy consumption by 80% with commercial LED lighting
BACKGROUND
The Amaize restaurant in Doral, Florida is the flagship store in a planned chain of fast casual eateries serving Latin-inspired gourmet food. Located just a few minutes from Miami, the 2,760 square-foot store serves an average of 3,300 arepas – the restaurant’s signature dish – on a daily basis. As the Amaize team developed its franchise model, CEO Karen Armando Cohen made a conscious decision to serve as a leader in environmentally-friendly restaurant design and operation. As a baseline goal, Amaize set out to cut at least 20 percent of the Doral store’s total energy use, and to use the building as a model for future locations. To support these lofty sustainability initiatives, restaurant owners first installed energy saving electric burners in the kitchen and implemented a comprehensive recycling program. The next step was to tackle one of any commercial building’s biggest energy hogs: lighting.

CHALLENGE
In the average restaurant, lighting accounts for approximately 13 percent of total energy use. To mitigate energy consumption and electricity expenses, Cohen and his team looked to commercial LED lighting solutions. Compared to traditional options, LEDs consume up to 85 percent less energy while also delivering a longer lifespan than incandescent and compact fluorescent bulbs. It was also important to find an LED supplier with the breadth of products required to achieve optimal lighting conditions in each area of restaurant. For example, the kitchen needed bright working conditions for its staff, while the dining room had to maintain a warm, inviting ambiance for patrons.

SOLUTION
In April 2015, Amaize connected with Conexsol, a Miami-based distributor/ EPC company specializing in improving customers’ profitability through energy efficiency, who recommended ReneSola’s products for the job. “With a variety of high-quality and cost effective lighting solutions in its portfolio, ReneSola was the clear choice to meet Amaize’s unique needs,” said Anthony Lopez, CEO of Conexsol. “The company’s affordable prices, coupled with its unique policy of waiving all freight charges, also allows us to pass along exceptional savings to our customers.” The Conexsol team installed a total of 111 ReneSola LEDs across the kitchen, dining and retail spaces. The installation process took just two days, and was completed with no disruption to service hours.

RESULTS
To date, Amaize has achieved as much as an 80 percent reduction in lightingrelated energy consumption. What’s more, the ReneSola and Conexsol collaboration will yield a full return on investment in only eight months. “We are thrilled with our decision to ‘go green’ with our lighting. With the help of Conexsol and ReneSola, we’ve got a cost-effective LED package that can be replicated across all our locations to conserve energy while improving our profitability,” said Cohen. “We hope our sustainability efforts help raise the bar for the restaurant industry and set a positive example for the local community.”

How is Renesola?

A 50MW solar farm will form part of the Anglesey Energy Island program, a collaboration between public and private stakeholders which is aimed at contributing GBP12 billion to north Wales’ economy over the next 15 years. The program, managed by Anglesey County Council’s economic development unit, intends to bring nuclear, wind, tidal, biomass and solar technologies together with a large number of projects having already been proposed. As of late last year a 10MW tidal array had been proposed by Siemens subsidiary Marine Current Turbines and Lateral Power had detailed plans to construct a 299MW biomass facility on Holy Island. Anglesey’s existing Wylfa nuclear power plant is to be switched off in December this year, however a new nuclear facility is to be constructed by Horizon Nuclear Power with work starting in 2018 ahead of generation commencing in the mid-2020s.

Hey guys, I have kind of the same question here too. But subjects would be good to start in understanding solar power? What mathematics and sciences would be good to become more knowledgeable in the area of Solar Power?

Hi Everyone....

Being absolutely brand-new to the idea of solar, I think my first question should be.. "Where do I begin to learn what I should know..?"

Books, voltages, wiring, charge controllers, inverters, batteries, needs.... you name it, I know nothing, and have to learn everything...

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks

I have get some advice from Renesola,it's solar powered products is good.

Hi,
So I'm looking at a solar pump. The shed roof means that I could have as many panels as necessary.
Does anybody have any experience of pond pumps, or of solar powered devices?

It's the Renesola's solar panel.
