A solar tree is a structure that uses solar panels arranged like a tree to generate renewable energy and electricity. It has multiple solar panels mounted on a tall pole to maximize energy production using minimal land. The panels convert sunlight into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect. Solar trees have applications for street lighting, domestic and industrial power supply, and can help rural areas gain electricity access in an eco-friendly and renewable way. While their installation has high initial costs, solar trees provide environmental and economic benefits over traditional solar power systems.

1. SOLAR TREE
RENEWABLE ENERGY

2. WHAT IS SOLAR TREE
 A solar tree is a decorative means of producing solar
energy and also electricity
 It uses multiple number of solar panels which forms the
shape of a tree
 The panels are arranged in a tree fashion in a tall
tower/pole

3. A SOLAR TREE
 TREE stands for
 T = TREE GENERATING
 R = RENEWABLE
 E = ENERGY and
 E = ELECTRICITY
The structure of a solar tree is like a tree
and the panels are like leaves

4. COMPONENTS OF SOLAR TREE
The solar tree consists of mainly five parts to design:
 Solar panels
 Long tower
 LEDs
 Batteries
 Stems for connecting the panels

5. HOW SOLAR PANELS WORK
 Photovoltaic cells converts sunlight in to electrical energy
 This effect is known as photo voltaic effect
 Solar cells create electricity by converting photons of
Light in to electrons
 Solar cell producing DC is converted to AC by using
inverter

6. NEED OF SOLAR TREE
 It requires less land as compared to traditional PV system
 It can generate maximum energy using minimum land
 It can generate energy very efficiently as compare to
traditional system
 The stem are flexible so that they can rotate in any direction
 And by shaking themselves they produce energy also from wind

7. SOLAR TREE IN INDIA
 India being a developing country and highly populated requires
a power plant where maximum energy can be generated by using
minimum land
 We must try to produce energy from sun by using solar tree in our country
to increase our per capita land and fulfil the growing energy demand

8. APPLICATIONS
 Street light
 Domestic supply
 Industrial supply

9. ADVANTAGES
 No pollution
 Eco friendly
 Renewable energy source
 Land requirement is very less
 Electricity access to rural areas
 People can save money

10. DISADVANTAGES
 Cost for installation is high
 May cause hazards to the birds and insects
 Hazards to eyesight from solar reflectors

11. CONCLUSION
 It fulfils the increasing energy demand
 Saves land
 It provides electricity without any power cut
 The extra energy can be provided to the grid
