4. Solar panel energy rating (i.e. wattage, voltage and amperage). DESIGN OF SYSTEM COMPONENTS Solar Panels 1. Solar Insolation Solar panels receive solar radiation. Solar insolation is the measure of the amount of solar radiation received and is recorded in units of kilowatt-hours per square meter per day (kWh/m2/day). Solar insolation varies .
responding to the solar direction. The solar tracker can be used for several application such as solar cells, solar day-lighting system and solar thermal arrays. The solar tracker is very useful for device that needs more sunlight for higher efficiency such as solar cell. Many of the solar panels had been
There are three types of solar cookers, solar box cookers or oven solar cookers, indirect solar cookers, and Concentrating solar cookers [2-10]. Figure 1 shows different types of solar cookers namely. A common solar box cooker consists of an insulated box with a transparent glass or plastic cover that allows solar radiation to pass through.

and solar supporters. We help people go solar in two ways: - Solar co-ops: Solar co-ops are groups of neighbors in a particular community or area who are interested in going solar around the same time. Solar United Neighbors educates local residents about how solar works, generates interest in and facilitates a bulk purchase process, and provides
