| Summary: | In recent years, the need for renewable and clean energy solutions has increased
significantly and one particularly compelling and promising direction for the
provision of sustainable energy is the incorporation of solar power into portable
applications. This final year report will present an analysis of energy management of
portable power supply using solar energy, with particular emphasis dedicated to its
performance, efficiency, design, and suitability for a range of settings.
This report will start with an overview of the growing demand for portable power
sources in off-grid living scenarios, outdoor activities, disaster relief efforts, and
isolated regions. It calls the spotlight on the advantages solar-powered solutions have
for the environment and energy independence, highlighting how they can lower
carbon emissions and lessen dependency on fossil fuels.
The paper then dives into the portable power supply system’s technicality which
entails its main elements namely the photovoltaic (PV) panels, energy storage
devices, charge controllers, and inverters. These details will be covered, along with
their functions in capturing, storing, and translating pure solar energy into useful
electricity. In addition, it assesses the effectiveness of these parts, considering
variables such as durability against the weather and portability. Furthermore, the
report will cover future work and the feasibility of options outside of portability such
as grids, projecting future trends.
Lastly, the report will signify the value of the portable power supply alongside its
energy management as an environmentally friendly option for localized energy
production. To improve global energy availability, it promotes greater adoption of
these systems. Portable solar solutions can empower people and communities by
utilizing the sun’s energy and accelerating the transition to a greener sustainable
future. |
