Three Big Reasons You Should Pair a Home Battery with Solar

Jan , 10 2022

As residential solar installations increase across the country, homeowners are realizing that investing in solar alone won’t benefit them in the long run. The reason is because most solar energy is produced between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. while (pre COVID-19) you’re probably at work or school. When you return home and start using your electronics and appliances, it’s likely that there isn't enough solar...

3 Reasons to Choose Energy Storage over a Generator during Fire & Hurricane Season: Reason-1

Jan , 10 2022

Past 2 years will stand out in the history books as years that forced us to radically rethink (and adjust) the status quo. As we go into summer, the stability of our electricity grid will be put to the test when many of us are spending most of our time at home. Fire season will begin shortly in different places, with utilities sending out messages about public safety power shutoffs. On the East Co...

Installing off-grid solar power on your RV

Mar , 02 2022

Off-grid solar installations in the middle of nowhere are often the first thing people think about when they think of going solar. While it’s definitely not for everyone, DIY off-grid solar can be a great solution for those living in a remote area without reliable and affordable access to the grid, want to live a self-reliant lifestyle without monthly utility bills, or have the ability to access p...

How to select batteries for your RV off grid system battery bank

Mar , 09 2022

Batteries are a crucial component of off-grid solar systems. After all, how are you going to store all the energy produced from your panels? There is a range of deep cycle battery options that are ideal for solar applications, such as sealed and flooded lead acid and lithium ion batteries. Flooded lead acid batteries are the cheapest battery option and are available in many big box stores. They al...

How to select solar panels for your RV off grid system

Mar , 09 2022

When it comes to actually collecting energy from the sun, that’s where solar panels come in. There are a few different solar panel options available to choose from. Mono-crystalline vs. Polycrystalline Panels Choosing between mono-crystalline and polycrystalline panels is one of the first steps to take when shopping for solar panels. Polycrystalline panels are light blue in color, and they are les...

High Frequency / High Ripple Resonant Chargers: Good or Bad? (part-2)

Jun , 13 2022

Battery charging is a complex electrochemical process, in which the discharged electric energy is replenished from the electric power grid. This is accomplished using a battery charger, which is an electrical/electronic device that converts the incoming AC line voltage into a regulated DC voltage to meet the charging needs of the respective battery. In a series of articles we are going to explain ...

Explore and analyze the thermal power of Li- ion cells and battery packs (part-3)

Jul , 04 2022

1. Influence of ambient temperature: The following figure shows the battery temperature rise curve (average temperature of 5 sampling points) during 1C charge and discharge process of 55Ah battery at ambient temperatures of 20°C, 27°C and 40°C. From the figure, we can It can be seen that the charging time of the battery at 20°C is 74min and the discharge time is...

Theoretical introduction to Switch mode converters

Jul , 18 2022

Switch mode power conversion technology dominates nearly every segment of the economy, including demanding aerospace and military power systems that impose requirements more demanding than those imposed by power utilities or industry. Switch mode converters are, for example, successfully hardened against the effects of frequent lightning strikes on aircraft, against the effects of nuclear electrom...

What is a Micro Data center?

Aug , 01 2022

When people think about the data center, they always think that in a very large building. There are a lot of cabinets neatly arranged, cabinets filled with servers, and servers are shining positive light. It looks cool. A data center is a dedicated space within a building, or a group of buildings used to house computer systems and associated components, such as teleco...

Power Factor and Harmonic Analysis in PWM converter

Aug , 15 2022

Most of the power conversion applications consist of an AC to DC conversion stage and this DC output is then used for further stages. An AC to DC converter is an integral part of most of the electronic equipment as most of these equipment are DC powered [1]. Generally to convert AC to DC a diode bridge rectifier is used. To reduce the ripple in the output voltage a suitable filter capacitor is use...
