A BETTER FUTURE WITH RENEWABLE ENERGY -PATENT OF MODEL PUD-BJ-"FROM IDEA TO THE PRODUCT"

Abstract

The goal of the project was to make a small, independent electrical energy source for locations with enough sun-light, but insufficient or non-existent distribution of electricity. Accumulator batteries, which store electrical energy, are filled during day, and discharged as needed. The capacity of basic accumulator battery is sufficient to power a satellite phone recharger, low-consumption lighting, and other smaller common appliances. The system is modular and a inverter can be added to provide alternating current of 230V/50Hz or 110V60Hz. DIN standards were used in the realization phase of the project. We selected gipsy settlement of Parag as a place to demonstrate the achievements of our project. We also commenced production of two additional independent energy sources, one for a mountain hut on a popular trekking path near Slovenian – Croatian border, so visitors can recharge flashlights and cell phones, and another for a popular school park of a school centre.
