研究目的
To generate electricity using solar energy and maintain the water level of the upper reservoir for continuous production of electricity in a hydro power plant by pumping water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir with the help of solar energy.
研究成果
From this project we get electricity from two different renewable energy sources at the same time and at a same place. Successfully replace the conventional sources by the solar energy for pumping back the water in a hydro power plant. Based on the qualitative and quantitative analysis of geographical conditions of the site And availability of different sources, a solution is presented. From this project we can generate maximum amount of electricity throughout the year.
研究不足
Funding issues as setting up a grid is very costly at student level. Need of educating the villagers about the installed technology in order of maintaining the same. Renewable energy production is dependent on natural cycles, i.e. PV doesn’t work at night. Initial cost of these plant is higher than comparably sized conventional power plant. Cannot handle the peak loads well without energy storage.
