3. SOLAR POWER PLANT AT THE TOP OF 38’th BLOCK.

4. INTRODUCTION
 Solar power plant in LPU has been placed on the
terrace of the 38th block.
 400’s of solar panel has been placed to generate
electricity in a efficient way.
 Solar energy i.e energy provided from sun is steady
throughout the year.
 • It is one of the most widely used renewable energy
source.
 It not only benefits individual owners, but also benefits
the environment.
 It was built in 2013 and was constructed in 3 months.
 Low cost running.

5. CAPACITY OF THE POWER PLANT
 It generates 600V of DC current.
 Power of 100kW(0.1MW) is generated.
 Amount of 1 crore was invested in this project and we
are getting 30% subsidy from Punjab Govt.
 We are not using any battery since it increases 50% of
project cost.
 The length of DC wire should be less. Hence, the grid
tie inverters should not be placed far from the panels.
 Clamps are used to fix the panels with the stands.
 Some devices like lightning arresters, temperature and
radiation sensors are used.

7. TYPES OF SOLAR POWER PLANT
(1)--Photovoltaic Electricity – This method uses photovoltaic
cells that absorb the direct sunlight just like the solar cells you
see on some calculators.

8. (2)--Solar Thermal energy plant--A solar thermal energy plant will be
used for creating solar generated heaters which can be used for heating
water and also as an indoor heating system.

9. HOW IT WORKS
 As light hits the solar panels, the solar
radiation is converted into direct current
electricity (DC).
 The direct current flows from the panels
and is converted into alternating current
(AC) used by local electric utilities.
 Finally, the electricity travels through
transformers, and the voltage is boosted
for delivery onto the transmission lines
for local electric utilities.

11. NATURAL EFFECT OF THE
SOLAR POWER PLANT
 Solar energy has the potential to
dramatically change the way the world
gets its power.
While solar is among the world's
cleanest forms of energy, plans to
develop utility scale solar farms have
raised concerns about potential
environmental impacts.

12. ADVANTAGES OF THE SOLAR POWER PLANT
 Renewable Energy Source
Reduces Electricity Bills
Diverse Applications
 Low Maintenance Costs
Technology Development
Solar power creates jobs

13. DISADVANTAGES OF THE SOLAR POWER PLANT
Cost
Weather Dependent
Solar Energy Storage Is
Expensive
Uses a Lot of Space
Associated with Pollution
