Stand-Alone Photovoltaic Application
The Stand-Alone Photovoltaic Application, “AEL-SAPV”, has been designed by EDIBON to study the energy production by photovoltaic panels.
This application will provide the user with the knowledge and the essential skills about the photovoltaic panel operation and the components that take part in the production of electrical energy from solar energy. For this purpose, the unit includes a specific manual explaining, at theoretical level, the relative aspects to the components of this system such as the charge controller and the current inverter.
Stand-Alone Photovoltaic Application
The theme covers from the placement and orientation of the solar panels to produce the maximum electrical energy to the obtaining the characteristic curve of the solar panel. Furthermore, a set of included and optional modules are provided in order to put into practice all the theoretical concepts previously studied in the manual, as the feeding of DC and AC loads from solar energy.
