A complete Hybrid System Source of Power • Solar Array • PHCN • Fuel Generator
|
Hello my name is Charpell and i am a Solar Energy Consultant. As electricity bills and price of fuel increase around the country, solar panels are increasingly being installed by homeowners wishing to take advantage of a system that produces greener energy and insulates them from rising energy prices. If you are building your house and you have not factored solar energy into your budget then you need to go back to your drawing board. No one can run away from electricity needs, because it drives the economy. Only smart individuals understand that they can spend less on solar energy in the long run than using fossil generators. Solar energy needs no introduction, with the abundance of sun in Nigeria; we still are not harnessing the energy. With the current price of fuel, every smart individual knows that solar energy is the way forward. The major challenge of solar energy in Nigeria is the cost but what people have failed to factor is that these system has a life span of 25-30 years. It has no moving parts, it needs no maintenance. When building a new home, you have the opportunity to build it right from the get-go, saving yourself thousands of naira in utility bills over the decades (as well as offsetting the associated fossil fuel emissions). High efficiency appliances make the most of the energy they consume. Electricity is appealing because you can generate it for free with solar panels on your roof. However, the amount of electricity generated at a particular site depends on how much of the sun's energy reaches it. Thus, PV systems function most efficiently in the northern part of the country, which receives the greatest amount of solar energy. Before selecting system components and sizing a PV system for an existing home, you should evaluate your energy consumption patterns and try to reduce your home's electricity use. You can start by performing a load analysis with the help of a good installer. By understanding your "energy habits" and becoming more energy efficient, you can reduce the size of the PV system you'll need, lowering both your capital and operating costs. If you're designing a new home, you should work with the builder and the solar professional to incorporate your PV system into your whole-house system design -- an approach for building an energy-efficient home. There are 3 types of Solar Energy Installation 1 Back-Up System This is the cheapest form of Renewable energy. Back-Up Installation are essentially UPS that provides uninterrupted electricity when the power from PHCN goes off. They mainly consist of Inverter and batteries. The batteries sustain power for a give number of hours at a time before recharge. A Back-Up installation can later be upgraded, by adding solar panels. Who needs this Installation? This system of installation is suitable for people who have at least 10 hours of electricity per day. If you are not sure of the number of hours, you can still install now and later upgrade to the hybrid system. The most important thing is you have started. 2 Stand alone system This is the most expensive form of Solar Installation. A Stand alone system solely relies on solar energy and does not require PHCN for charging the battery. It isn't connected to a electricity distribution grid operated by a utility. When considering Stand alone system, you should hire an expert solar engineer to help you calculate the energy audit of your appliance, positioning of solar arrays and number of panels required to let your system run for 24 hours otherwise your batteries may not be getting charged. Who needs this Installation? This system of installation is suitable for people who want some part of their appliance in their home or all of their appliances be totally independent of National grid. 3 Hybrid Systems In a hybrid Solar Installation, there is always electricity round the clock because more than one source is required and available for battery charging. For example, there is the presence of at least two of the following: • PHCN • Solar array • Wind energy • Fuel/Diesel Generator Hybrid Installation provides the highest form of power efficiency and availability. Who needs this Installation? This system of installation is suitable for people who can't afford the stand alone installation, so the number of solar array is reduced to let other source cover up for the time charging. There are 3 factors everyone needs to consider before coming up with a budget. I Energy Load 2 Number of Hours the Battery can sustain without charging 3 Price of each system Component I have prepared a current quote that describes the design and cost analyst for all size of solar setup ranging from 1.2kva to 15kva for both backup and stand-alone system. With a consultant fee of N5,000, you get the quote sent to you and regular update for any change in price In the quote I will be sending out, you get the: 1 The Total wattage of all your house appliance 2 Current price of every component, that makes up the solar generator. 3 1.2kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 4 2kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 5 2.5kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 6 3.5kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 7 5kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 8 7.5kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 9 10kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 10 15kva Quote for back up and Stand alone system 11 We also compare the price of the solar installation to the cost of each system fuel/ Diesel generator for a period of 2 year.

tfezify: To upgrade to solar for 2 Batteries You need 4 units of 200watts panel You need a 30A MPPT Charge controller To upgrade to solar for 4 Batteries You need 7 units of 200watts panel You need a 50A MPPT Charge controller 200w panel goes for 35-40k 50A Mppt charge Controller is 50k Hope this helps |
initiate:All inverters are dependable if the offer 1 year warranty and offer good service center, however it differs from every company smilinguy: cheezy4whizy: Zico4real: trendyprettygir:Sorry for not responding on time. |
lecturerdabo:Thanks bro. You right, that is why I always let it run on low, so I can get 8 hours |
The heat at night get worse daily, this has forced people without alternative energy to look for solution Two months ago, while I was surfing the internet looking for cheap alternatives for people who cant afford inverters in this heat period, I came across a store on kaymu where different brands, types of rechargeable fan were sold. The fans came with mouth-watering features for their prices, I checked online for experience from users to know if the fans were worth the price, but I couldn’t find any. So I decided to take the risk, I went ahead to the market to give it a trial, the experiences so has been nothing short of awesomeness. I planned to buy all 3 fans the sake of review The 3 categories of fans I want to review are · Rechargeable Water Mist Fan · Lontor CTL-CF030 16 Rechargeable Fan · Havic Portable Rechargeable USB Fan 1 Rechargeable Water Mist Fan aka Water Fan This fan is far superior and unique from other rechargeable fan I have known. It works like air-condition due to its ability to control the humidity of its environment. When the weather gets too hot, an ordinary fan will to emit hot air normally. But this fan provides an air cooling effect through its automatic water atomization function. It cools the air by drawing water from the inbuilt 2.1ltrs water can and provide the much-needed humidity in the home. It is sleek and beautifully designed, providing more esthetics for the home. This is a great cooling appliance for home, store and lecture venues. I didn’t buy this fan because the small size of it was out of stock. So I cant give review because I haven’t used it yet Price As of 2 months ago, it was sold for N17,000. 2 Lontor CTL-CF030 16 Rechargeable Fan The Features Some of the basic features and specification of the Lontor Rechargeable Fan includes – 3-speed control 16″ max height Easy oscillation and height adjustment Built-in LED night-light AD/DC function (auto-switches) Over-charge and over-discharge protection Retailed with 2 piece 6v 4.5Ah rechargeable battery Charging and operating indicator 12-16 hours charge time The Review 3-speed control The fan comes with 3 speed mode (low, medium and fast) to help regulate your desired temperature. Battery Life In all, the battery life is good as it will help keep your room cool and comfortable from the moment you turn off your generator until the morning. Its expected that the more faster the fan, the faster the battery runs down. Fast 3.5 hours Medium 5 hours Low 8 hours LED Night-Light The built-in LED night-light is awesome and works even when the battery can no longer power the fan. It can go for as long as four days without issues. For students, this could add more juice to the lifespan of your reading lamps, saving you the stress of running now and then, looking for a place to charge your lamps. Charging time It takes long hours to full charge the battery. I cant give a correct figure, but I’d say it takes between 10-12hours for charging Oscillatory Movement The oscillatory movement is awesome; it covers every angle in a room Pros Excellent features and value for money Build quality is okay Battery duration is great Addition of Night life Cons It takes longer hours to charge Addiction of a USB port (power bank) would have been a kill Price N8,000 Watch Videowww.youtube.com/watch?v=tOBGlYnHjP0&feature=youtu.be 3 Havic Portable Rechargeable USB Fan. This mini Handheld Portable USB Fan is powered by Lithium Rechargeable Battery. It can also be powered by any PowerBank or Micro USB Cable via USB Port of Notebook/ Computer. It can also be used to for cooling Computers. The Features Intelligent control system with 3 power modes to choose; Output power 4W Battery charged by USB and portable Small sound lead out, won't disturb your good rest; There are easy remarks for 3 power degrees. And with a green power on button and a red power off button. Portable mini fan powered by lithium rechargeable battery, convenient to take anywhere and anytime, keep you cool on hot days. Its expected that the more faster the fan, the faster the battery runs down. Fast 2.5 hours Medium 6.5hours Low 8.5 hours For longer hours, it is expected to run in the lowest mode Whats in the Box? 1 x Rechargeable USB Fan 1 x Adapter Cable 1 x 1500mAh Rechargeable Li-Lion Battery Pros Very Portable Different Source of charging Last Longer Hours 3 Speed Control Batteries Can be Easily Replaced Cons No Oscillatory Movement Price N2,500 With the current heat in Nigeria, I think everyone should have any of this affordable fan in their home.

[quote author=uchiha250 post=45236782][/quote]You didn't mention Shikamaru.
What are the odds Konohamaru over Shiamaru? |
Lordaweezy:When Minato died, the 3rd hokage resumed the hokage title. You can't rule kakashi out beside he is still young. konohamaru is only 3 or 4 years younger than Naruto |
newguy1:Black zetus was the smartest person in the series |
Naruto is an Uzamaki and would probably outlive all the listed character below, however lets assume naruto was to die early maybe he sacrificed himself for the village or he retired early, who among this character is likely to succeed him? 1 Shikamaru Shikamaru is the second wisest character in the series and once taunted to be a hokage by his sensei. He is currently the adviser to the 7th hokage, which makes him Naruto's right hand man. If we're going by resume, I'd say Shikamaru would be next in line. Shikamaru, I think, certainly has the judgement, political savvy, and shinobi intelligence to be Hokage, a vital skill for a hokage material. https://www.wall321.com/thumbnails/detail/20120327/naruto%20shippuden%20shikamaru%20nara%201920x1200%20wallpaper_www.wallpaperto.com_13.jpg 2 Sasuke He is the strongest in the world besides naruto. Sasuke is intelligent and thinks logically.Though he took a wrong path because of many circumstances, he is skillful. But people in konoha may not accept him as Hokage. Sasuke is next in line. He wanted to become hokage just as bad as naruto. If naruto dies, i dont think there is anyone in the village that can stand up to him if he insist on becoming the hokage. We all know that power is an important factor when considering hokage title https://www.borutomovieuk.com/images/stills/14.jpg 3 Konohamaru Konohamaru is the Honorable grandson of the third hokage and probably the only student of Naruto which makes him an hokage material. Konohamaru doesn't have anything special. Although like Hiruzen the third hokage, both of them were simply strong without anything exceptional about them. For example, in the battle Pain invaded Kooaha, he took down a Pain as a genin. The same battle Pain killed kakashi He also mastered the Rasengan probably faster than Naruto did. I think he could do it. [img]http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/naruto/images/4/4b/Konohamaru_p3.png/revision/latest?cb=20151226162830[/img] 4 Kakashi Kakashi was the sixth hokage, what i dont understand is why he retired so early? But if Naruto dies early Kakashi will definitely pull a "Hiruzen" stunt. He might rollback as an intermediate Hokage if there is conflict in choosing the above 3 characters. Kakashi was the Third Division Commander, is a war hero and has already been a Hokage for close to a decade so he knows the ins and outs of the job. https://img08.deviantart.net/4fb5/i/2015/090/d/f/kakashi_hatake___6th_hokage_by_cclaire110-d8nxq3g.png 5 Sarada Sarada is the daughter of Sasuke and the only candidate not in Naruto generation All of the Hokages after the first two brothers were trained / mentored by previous Hokage. The only exception to that rule was Minato, but remember that Jiraiya was offered the Hokage position before Tsunande, so in my opinion that still follows the same pattern. Considering it was never mentioned that Naruto was a squad leader of any kind, that would make Konohamaru his only disciple and therefore a prime candidate to follow in his footsteps. Then, since Konohamaru is Sarada's sensei, it would further justify the belief that Sarada could become Hokage. That is why I believe that if the story continued, we would eventually see detailed story on Sarada becoming the 8th Hokage [img]http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/naruto/images/9/91/Sarada_Boruto_Movie.png/revision/latest?cb=20150703193931[/img] |
You write well, kudos |
ollyboy009:Thanks |
Tplklaw:Alright since its just a month old, you can 2 more batteries to your system. For the (types, model and number), I recommend mono, simbad, 200watts(4)unit for you 2 batteries. The problem with simbad panels is the cost as per Germany product. If you cant afford it, you can opt for the china ones. but the keyword is mono crystalline. Charge Controller, 30 amps will do. Hope this helps |
Tplklaw:Whats the model of your inverter? If you want to increase it to 4, you have to buy 4 new set of batteries. I dont recommend mixing old batteries and new ones |
How I wish more platform like this could be available to encourage employment through knowledge and skills |
successincentiv:Hello Whats your email address? |
I think what you trying to say is you want to create a forum, right? |
TheWebDeveloper:Thank you very much sir this was really helpful. When i first contacted my host this was their response. "Since resources are shared among all websites on the server. And this effects performance of websites on the same server if one website is consuming more resources than others. Hence we distribute it equally among all websites. The values that you are asking us to change is not possible as it can effects performance of other websites hosted on the same server." Is there any side effect of using custom php.INI? Thanks again |
Hello webmasters, I got a script i want to install in a new hosting plan but my server didnt meet the script requirement. Here are the parameters. how do i effect the changes in php.ini file? max_execution_time = 30 (It need to be in 0 in both the local and master value) max_input_time = 60 (It need to be in 6000 in both the local and master value) memory_limit = 128M (It need to be in 512M in both the local and master value) post_max_size = 8M ( It need to be in 100M in both the local and master value) upload_max_filesize = 2M ( It need to be in 100M in both the local and master value) display_errors = Off (It need to be in On in both the local and master value) Let me know , once you have updated above changes. Thanks |
