Abstract:
<abstract> <p>This research presents a method for improving a conventional solar still to produce potable water during adverse conditions where there is low or no solar radiation. Summer and winter conditions in the Western Cape province of South Africa were considered. A comparative experimental study was conducted between a conventional solar still and the developed solar still. The developed solar still incorporated a photovoltaic powered thermoelectric heat pump. The purpose of the thermoelectric (TE) heat pump was to accelerate convection inside the developed solar still assembly. The coefficient of performance (COP) of the thermoelectric heat pump installed in the developed solar still ranged from 0.4 to 1.9 at an input current of 5 A. The results indicated that the developed solar still was able to produce 2300 mL per day of drinkable water during a good day in the winter, but the conventional solar still was only able to produce 650 mL per day. The developed solar still produced 2180 mL per day, whereas the ordinary solar still produced 1050 mL per day, during a mild summer day. The developed still had an accumulated water production of 1180 mL during a night with mild temperatures. This significant improvement in yield of the developed solar still system is due to the change in temperature difference between the glazing and the water surface within the developed solar still. This is a significant contribution to the technology of solar water purification.</p> </abstract>

Abstract:
<abstract> <p>Energy is seen as one of the most determinant factors for a nation's economic development. The Sun is an incredible source of inexhaustible energy. The efficiency of the conversion and application of Photovoltaic (PV) systems is related to the PV module's electricity generation and the location's solar potentials. Thus, the solar parameters of a region are important for feasibility studies on the application of solar energy. Although solar energy is available everywhere in the world, countries closest to the equator receive the greatest solar radiation and have the highest potential for solar energy production and application. Dhofar in Salalah-Oman is one of the cities in Oman with high temperatures all year round. The city has been reported to exhibit a maximum solar flux of about 1360 w/m<sup>2</sup> and a maximum accumulative solar flux of about 12,586,630 W/m<sup>2</sup> in March. These interesting solar potentials motivated the call for investment in solar energy in the region as an alternative to other non-renewable energy sources such as fossil fuel-powered generators. As a consequence, several authors have reported on the application of different solar energy in the different cities in Oman, especially in remote areas and various results reported. Therefore, the present review highlighted the achievements reported on the availability of solar energy sources in different cities in Oman and the potential of solar energy as an alternative energy source in Dhofar. The paper has also reviewed different PV techniques and operating conditions with emphasis on the advanced control strategies used to enhance the efficiency and performance of the PV energy system. Applications of standalone and hybrid energy systems for in-house or remote power generation and consumption in Dhofar were discussed. It also focused on the relevance of global radiation data for the optimal application of PV systems in Dhofar. The future potential for the full application of solar systems in the region was mentioned and future work was recommended.</p> </abstract>

Abstract:
<abstract> <p>This review is inspired by the increasing shortage of fresh water in areas of the world, and is written in response to the expanding demand for sustainable technologies due to the prevailing crisis of depleting natural water resources. It focuses on comprehending different solar energy-based technologies. Since the increasing population has resulted in the rising demand for freshwater, desalination installation volume is rapidly increasing globally. Conventional ways of desalination technologies involve the use of fossil fuels to extract thermal energy which imparts adverse impacts on the environment. To lessen the carbon footprint left by energy-intensive desalination processes, the emphasis has shifted to using renewable energy sources to drive desalination systems. The growing interest in combining solar energy with desalination with an emphasis on increasing energy efficiency has been sparked by the rapid advancements in solar energy technology, particularly solar thermal. This review paper aims to reflect various developments in solar thermal desalination technologies and presents prospects of solar energy-based desalination techniques. This paper reviews direct and indirect desalination techniques coupled with solar energy, and goes on to explain recent trends in technologies. This review also summarizes the emerging trends in the field of solar thermal desalination technologies. The use of nanoparticles and photo-thermal materials for localized heating in solar desalination systems has decreased energy consumption and enhanced the efficiency of the system. Solar power combined with emerging processes like membrane distillation (MD) has also a recent resurgence.</p> </abstract>

Abstract:
<abstract> <p>When it comes to renewable energy, solar water heaters are among the fastest-growing technologies. Comparatively speaking, integrated collector-storage solar water heater systems cost less than other solar water heater designs. Therefore, both the construction and the operation of a combined collector-storage solar water heater are quite straightforward. The integrated storage solar collector coupled with reflectors has been experimentally investigated. The reflectors were insulated from the back side when working during the day hours and as insulated cover during the night hours. While comparing the combined collector-storage solar water heater with and without insulated reflectors, the results showed that the insulated reflectors increased the thermal efficiency by 23%. Furthermore, on the coldest day, the stored water reached a high of 82 degrees Celsius, though it was only 46 degrees Celsius that same morning.</p> </abstract>

<abstract> <p>This paper presents a hybrid solar dryer with baffles disposed of on the solar collector. When the levels of solar radiation are low, an electrical heater is used to increase the drying air temperature. A photovoltaic system feeds the electrical heater and the fans, and it is also used to preheat the drying air, increasing the temperature at the inlet of the solar collector. Experimental results of corn drying indicated that the baffles augmented the energy efficiency of the system (from 23.5 to 24.9%) and the temperature rise in the solar collector (from 13.5 to 20.2 ℃), reducing the time required for the corn to reach the final desired moisture content.</p> </abstract>

Abstract:
This thesis is about Photovoltaic (PV) cells and its stresses in various directions by calculating the power generated using solar cells under different conditions to improve its efficiency. Our research studies found that using multi-junction cells with larger substrates can increase the efficiency to some extent which in practice is limited to 43 percent. The experiment was conducted using ten solar cells each with an area of 20.9〖cm〗 ^2, where each cell gives 0.5 V and 0.4 A and a 1.25 Ω resistor was used. The cells were connected in series. Once, the PV cells were fixed horizontally and the other time tested in tilted position under same outdoor condition. The purpose of testing PV cells was to investigate the efficiency under above mentioned conditions. The data collected from the readings was used in calculation, and we have obtained from the calculations that horizontally fixed cells gave 4.8 percent efficiency whereas tilted cells gave 6.6 percent efficiency. Hence, the ratio showed that fixed cells produced 37.5 percent more power compared to horizontally fixed cells. Our other experiment consisted of testing PV cells under different temperature conditions that was done using a freezer and an oven for temperature variation and a tungsten bulb was used as a light source. The purpose of performing this experiment was to investigate how the efficiency of PV cells is affected under extreme conditions. Part of our thesis was also including studies and analysis of produced energy by the solar panel installed on the roof of “BTH” building in Karlskrona, Sweden. The data consisted of energy produced from February up to August 2014. The investigation also included finding the highest produced energy during these months. We have found that the highest energy was generated on the 1st of July which was 12.86 kWh. Furthermore, we went deep into investigation of the 1st of July to know exactly which hour of that day the highest energy was produced. The data showed that the highest produced energy was at 12:19 and 13:19 which was 2.03 kWh.

Abstract:
Reference is increasingly being made towards the need for the world to find new and renewable forms of energy, especially for electric power generation, but also for space heating and the heating of water. Solar energy is one of the cheapest forms of renewable energy available and is so far one of the most underutilised resources. One contribution makes reference to the way forward as being ‘using concentrating solar power which uses parabolic mirrors to focus the solar heat (energy) and generate steam to drive electric generators’ as is currently happening in the utility power marketplace in the USA. This thesis deals with the issues surrounding the original development of a two axis solar energy tracking system (SET) in 1997. The subsequent redesign, development and upgrade, undertaken from 2002 to 2006, with its performance and efficiency being measured in 2006 and 2007 using a specially configured measurement and recording system. A Solar Energy Tracker (SET) is designed to track the sun moving in two axes, reflecting the solar radiation received on its mirrors to a target mounted at the end of a boom, at the focal point of the mirrors. In late 2005 and early 2006, a solar thermal hot water manufacturer and installer heard about the developments and requested some form of involvement, especially if Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology (CPIT) provided research input and assisted in the further development and testing of solar thermal hot water systems. This sponsor offered two projects in 2006 and again in 2007. Other solar thermal hot water suppliers also requested involvement in the research and development being performed at CPIT, which led in August 2006, December 2006, June 2007 and December 2007, to a number of other solar thermal hot water and air wall systems being installed. Progressively, the roof of C block at CPIT has become full of solar thermal hot water systems and solar air wall systems, both of the conventional type and those with newer technologies at the core of their development. This thesis outlines the stages in the redesign and development of the SET, and the various stages in its testing, development and refinement up to its present form. The thesis chapters are written based around the mechanical and electrical design, the auto-tracking and daylight controls, the PLC (programmable logic controller) controller, the mirror and substrate testing, the SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system, the testing and comparison with other domestic solar thermal hot water systems and finally the testing of the SET itself. It also details the future developments and outlines possible uses for the SET in its redefined form. With clean and polished mirrors the SET has proven itself capable of achieving a temperature rise across the target of 15 °C at a flow rate of 4 l/m. On some occasions this temperature rise can be in excess of 20 °C, but testing thus far, has shown this cannot be sustained for any worthwhile period of time (15-30 minutes). This translates to an efficiency of 5-10 % when related to an energy produced per twenty four hour time period. However, if the efficiency is calculated for the actual period of generation, ‘generation efficiency,’ then this figure rises to 24 %. An overview is given of associated solar thermal hot water and solar air wall system research and development (that is ongoing at CPIT) as well as the performance and efficiency graphs for the solar thermal hot water systems on test. No manufacturer’s, industry or brand trade names are mentioned, as this research is still confidential and commercially sensitive. However, the technology involved and characterised by each solar thermal system is recorded in a generic sense. The SET was originally developed with the purpose of heating hot water and today this is still the intent. The possible applications for this hot water are many and varied from electricity generation, space heating and further into developing or new industrial processes. The performances of the other domestic solar thermal hot water systems currently under test, are compared with the figures from the SET, with the maximum efficiency, presently available, being from an evacuated tube heat pipe system at up to 65 %, whereas traditional finned flat plate technologies have efficiencies after twelve months of up to 48 %.

Abstract:
Nowadays, and even more in the next decades, the availability and easy-access to energy sources represent a crucial asset for the world development and the progress of people and nations. At the same time, the depletion of natural resources, together with the increase of the anthropic activity impact on the Earth ecosystem and climate, force communities and institutions, at all levels, to discuss and actuate different approaches to achieve the social and economic growth, based on the so-called sustainable development pattern. In such a scenario, renewable energy sources, i.e. solar, wind, hydro, biomass, geothermal, etc., certainly play a key role to join progress and attention to the environmental issues. The present Ph.D. dissertation focuses on such topics investigating strategies, methods and innovative approaches for the effective design, control and management of renewable energy plants and technologies. Specifically, the energy scenario is investigated from a global point of view proposing studies and optimization models highlighting the relevance and the potential impact of the major energy sources, both renewable and conventional. Such sources represent the elements of a big puzzle, i.e. the energy mix, in which their economic and environmental strengths should be emphasized minimizing the associated negative impacts and weaknesses. Among renewable sources, solar energy is of primary importance for availability, diffusion and potential impact. The present Ph.D. dissertation particularly investigates such a source presenting models, methods and prototypes to increase its relevance in the energy mix. The fundamentals of solar energy, together with innovative approaches to estimate the solar radiation components, are provided. Furthermore, the pioneering concentrating solar sector is deeply focused presenting the design, development and preliminary field-test of a bi-axial Fresnel solar photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) concentrating prototype. Possible solar tracking strategies and control algorithms are, then, investigated describing a customized semi-automatic motion control platform, developed in LabViewTM programming environment. Finally, the last section, proposes an effective approach for the design of a solar simulator, the most frequently adopted device in solar optic laboratory tests. In conclusion, the present Ph.D. dissertation describes effective strategies for the renewable energy spread, considering their performances and their potential impact to achieve the ambitious challenge of a sustainable living planet.
Oggigiorno, ed in misura crescente nei prossimi decenni, la disponibilità e facilità di accesso alle fonti energetiche rappresenta un fattore determinante per lo sviluppo mondiale ed il progresso di popoli e nazioni. Parallelamente a ciò, il progressivo sfruttamento delle risorse naturali, unito all’aumento dell’impatto delle attività antropiche sull’ecosistema terrestre e sul clima, impongono a comunità ed istituzioni, ad ogni livello, un ripensamento e l’attuazione di differenti strategie per garantire lo sviluppo sociale ed economico attraverso il ricorso ad approcci basati sul concetto di sviluppo sostenibile. In questo contesto, le fonti energetiche rinnovabili, i.e. solare, eolica, idroelettrica, da biomasse, geotermica, ecc., assumono certamente un ruolo determinante per coniugare progresso ed attenzione alle tematiche ambientali. La presente Tesi di Dottorato si incentra su queste tematiche approfondendo strategie, metodi ed approcci innovativi per l’efficace progettazione, controllo e gestione di impianti e tecnologie per le energie rinnovabili. Nel dettaglio, lo scenario d’insieme delle fonti energetiche è analizzato con logica di sistema ed orientamento all’ottimizzazione globale proponendo studi e modelli che evidenzino l’importanza ed il potenziale delle principali risorse, rinnovabili e non, come elementi di un grande mosaico, i.e. il mix energetico globale, nel quale le potenzialità economiche ed ambientali di ogni risorsa sono enfatizzate minimizzando, nel contempo, gli impatti negativi e le rispettive debolezze. Tra le possibili fonti rinnovabili, la fonte solare assume primaria importanza per disponibilità, diffusione ed impatto potenziale. La presente Tesi di Dottorato analizza, in dettaglio, questa risorsa energetica presentando modelli, metodi ed impianti sviluppati per accrescere l’incidenza di questa risorsa nel mix energetico. Gli elementi ed aspetti fondamentali, insieme ad approcci innovativi per la stima delle componenti della radiazione solare, sono presentati nell’elaborato. Successivamente, l’innovativo settore della concentrazione solare è analizzato, in dettaglio, anche attraverso l’illustrazione delle scelte progettuali, lo sviluppo e la campagna sperimentale preliminare di un concentratore solare fotovoltaico/termico (PV/T) a lenti di Fresnel ed inseguimento biassiale. Nel seguito, vengono approfondite possibili strategie per l’inseguimento biassiale ed algoritmi di controllo, implementati in una piattaforma semi-automatizzata sviluppata in ambiente di programmazione grafica LabViewTM. L’ultima sezione propone, infine, un approccio per la progettazione di un simulatore solare, un dispositivo spesso adottato nei test di ottica solare. In conclusione, la presente Tesi di Dottorato, descrive una molteplicità di strategie orientate alla diffusione delle energie rinnovabili, con attenzione alle performance ed all’impatto potenziale che esse hanno verso il raggiungimento dell’obiettivo ambizioso di un sostenibile living planet.

Resumo: A Lei nº 10.438/02 estabeleceu o Programa de Incentivo às Fontes Alternativas de Energia Elétrica - PROINFA, único programa nacional a estimular as fontes renováveis alternativas, com o intuito de aumentar a participação da energia elétrica produzida por empreendimentos a partir das fontes eólica, pequenas centrais hidrelétricas - PCHs e biomassa no sistema interligado nacional. Posteriormente, o PROINFA foi revisado pela Lei nº 10.762/03 e alterou em sua regulamentação a obrigatoriedade de um índice mínimo de nacionalização de serviços e equipamentos, que em sua primeira etapa passou a corresponder a 60% do custo total da construção dos projetos contemplados. A energia solar fotovoltaica não foi contemplada pelo Programa, e o objetivo desta tese é estimar o índice de nacionalização para cada um dos três sistemas fotovoltaicos selecionados para estudo (sistema de bombeamento de água, sistema de eletrificação rural e sistema conectado à rede elétrica). Para elaboração desse cálculo foi efetuada uma adaptação da metodologia utilizada pelo PROINFA e considerados somente os custos dos principais equipamentos e não dos serviços. Os resultados obtidos permitiram concluir que os sistemas de bombeamento de água e de eletrificação rural são sistemas que 5% e 35%, respectivamente, dos seus equipamentos já são disponibilizados pela indústria nacional. mesmo não ocorre com os sistemas fotovoltaicos conectados à rede elétrica, que atualmente tem 100% dos seus principais equipamentos importados
Abstract: The Law nº 10.438/02 established the Program of Incentives for Alternative Electric Power Sources - PROINFA, which is the only national program aimed to foster alternative renewable energy sources and to increase the share of electric energy production from enterprises based on wind power, small hydropower plants and biomass in the interconnected national power grid. PROINFA was later modified by the Law nº 10.762/03 which revised the regulation imposing a minimum nationalization index of services and equipment that in its first stage corresponded to 60% of the total cost of the selected projects. Solar photovoltaic power was not included in PROINFA and because of that the objective of this thesis is to estimate the nationalization index of each of the following photovoltaic systems selected for the study: water pumping PV system, rural electrification PV system and grid-connected PV system. In order to carry out the calculations, the methodology used at PROINFA was adapted and only the costs of the key equipment, not the services, were considered. The results led to the conclusion that the water pumping and the rural electrification systems are those in which 5% and 35%, respectively, equipment is already made available by the national industry. The same is not verified for the grid-connected PV systems in which 100% of the key equipment is imported

Este aquecedor solar foi construído em uma estrutura metálica, que tem um revestimento de polietileno reflexivo parabólico cilíndrico, onde no foco da parábola passa uma serpentina com sete tubos em cobre de 9,5 mm e o projeto foi desenvolvido para obter temperaturas mais elevadas do que os aquecedores planos. O objetivo desta dissertação foi atingir temperaturas mais altas na fase líquida. As temperaturas alcançadas foram obtidas utilizando uma densidade de potência solar que variou entre (1.000±10) W/m2, nas vazões de: 66, 54, 42, 30, 27, 24, 21, 18, 15, 12 e 9 litros por hora. A máxima temperatura atingida utilizando-se a vazão de nove litros por hora foi de 71°C, permitindo uma diferença de temperatura, em relação a temperatura ambiente de 43°C. A máxima vazão utilizada no aquecedor solar parabólico cilíndrico foi de 66 litros por hora e obteve-se uma temperatura de 38°C, sendo a diferença em relação à temperatura ambiente de 6°C. Assim com o desenvolvimento do aquecedor solar parabólico cilíndrico obtiveram-se temperaturas maiores em uma área de captação menor, do que em aquecedor convencionais planos e com rendimentos superiores a 70% em sua maior faixa de operação

This thesis covers design, simulation and implementation of a solar energy control system for an on grid energy storage device. The design covers several control methods such as energy balance control, operating mode switching and data exchange. A genetic algorithm was designed to optimize the control system parameters design, and the algorithm's simulation and real time operating system implementation showed comparable results. The control system was implemented to connect a power supply to the grid. The power supply simulated a solar panel and connected to an electrical grid via Energy Hub equipment, and the energy transfer characteristics of designed control system were tested. The results showed that the selected algorithm matches the target performance criteria.

Abstract:
A number of detailed studies on the energy requirements on the three types of photovoltaic (PV) materials, which make up the majority of the active solar market: single crystal, polycrystalline, and amorphous silicon were reviewed. It was found that modern PV cells based on these silicon technologies pay for themselves in terms of energy in a few years (1–5 years). They thus generate enough energy over their lifetimes to reproduce themselves many times (6–31 reproductions) depending on what type of material, balance of system, and the geographic location of the system. It was found that regardless of material, built-in PV systems are a superior ecological choice to centralized PV plants. Finally, the results indicate that efficiency plays a secondary role to embodied energy in the overall net energy production of modern solar cells.
