The Optimized Solar-Powered LED Lighting System in Gas Stations
نویسندگان
چکیده
In accordance with the specifications for the design of the gas station lighting system, the original lighting system was transformed into the overall solar-powered LED lighting system. The original lighting was replaced by using the same illumination LED lamps. Calculations were made to determine the optimum tilt angle of solar components. Based on the reasonable LOLP rate, solar module and battery capacity were also measured. Conductance increment algorithm was employed to achieve the tracking of photovoltaic cells on the maximum power point. The solar LED lighting system could be automatically switched seamlessly with the general municipal power, featured with superior explosion-proof performance, protection performance and a significant energy-saving effect.

متن کاملEdison Revisited: Should we use DC circuits for lighting in commercial buildings?
We examine the economic feasibility of using dedicated DC circuits to operate lighting in commercial buildings. We compare light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and fluorescents that are powered by either a central DC power supply or traditional AC grid electricity, with and without solar photovoltaics (PV) and battery back-up. Using DOE performance targets for LEDs and solar PV, we find that by 2012 LE...

In this paper, the integrated unit commitment problem and gas network operation in which in the presence of renewable wind and solar power plants is modeled. Both wind and solar energy are variable sources of energy, but because solar energy is only available at certain times of the day, it has caused the load curve behavior to change. This change in load curve, known as the "duck curve, has ra...
