课程简介

课程名称:探索可再生能源方案 课程概述:当你听到“可再生能源”这个词时,你会想到什么?是太阳能电池板、巨大的风车,还是巨大水电坝的场景?这些都是大型并网系统的示例。本课程将关注更小规模的离网独立系统。我们将探索光伏、风能和水电系统的关键组成部分,深入理解可再生能源系统运作的科学原理。课程将讨论风能和低水头水电系统,重点关注小规模的应用。在探索这些系统的过程中,我们将关注安全性及指导合适系统设计的监管机构。通过本课程,你将能够进行能源审计,分析电力消费,识别小规模系统的主要组成部分,制定小规模系统设计的预算,并创建小规模系统的实施设计。 课程大纲: 1. 每样东西都是太阳能 - 在本模块中,我们将熟悉课程内容和社区期望。接着,我们将探索太阳光谱、斯特藩-玻尔兹曼定律和维恩位移定律,这些都在帮助我们从太阳捕获尽可能多的能量中发挥重要作用。 2. 光伏电池如何工作? - 这一模块将探讨光伏系统的核心元素:太阳能电池,包括从单个电池到能够利用太阳能的电池集群的各个方面。 3. 充电控制器和逆变器在光伏系统中的作用 - 充电控制器是任何简单光伏系统的关键元素。在本模块中,我们将重点关注充电控制器和逆变器及其在光伏系统中的重要角色。 4. 设计光伏系统 - 本模块将开始思考如何设计一个简单的光伏系统,探讨效率并制定策略以确定满足我们能源需求的正确组件。 5. 风能:就是太阳能! - 人类数百年来一直在利用风能,包括航行、抽水和磨粉。现代社会利用风能为家庭供电,加州是风能利用的先锋,年产能超过20太瓦,足以为300万户家庭供电。 6. 探索水电能源 - 在本模块中,我们将探讨水如何发电,并讨论低水头水电系统的组成部分。 通过本课程,学员将获得可再生能源系统设计的实用知识和应用技能,有助于推动可持续能源的发展。

课程大纲

Name:1: Everything Is Solar

Description:In this module, we’ll get started by getting familiar with the course and our community expectations. Then, we'll explore the solar spectrum, the Stefan Boltzmann Law, and Wien’s Displacement Law. Each plays a significant role in helping us capture as much energy as we can from the sun. We’ll also explore direct beam and diffuse radiation and consider the implications for solar panel orientation.

Name:2: How Do Photovoltaics Work?

Description:In this module, we’ll explore the essential element of any photovoltaic system: the solar cell. We’ll examine all aspects of the solar cell, moving from the single cell to a collection of cells that allow us to harness the sun’s power.

Name:3: The Role of Charge Controllers and Inverters in Photovoltaic Systems

Description:The charge controller is a key element of any simple photovoltaic system. This device helps you avoid over or under charging your battery or battery bank. In this module, we’ll focus on both charge controllers and inverters and their important role in photovoltaic systems.

Name:4: Designing a Photovoltaic System

Description:In this module, we’ll start thinking about how to design a simple photovoltaic system. We’ll examine efficiency and develop strategies for determining the right components to meet our energy needs.

Name:5: Wind Energy: It’s Solar!

Description:Humans have been harnessing the wind’s power for centuries. We’ve used it to help us sail ships, pump water, and grind gain. In modern times, we’re using wind energy to power our homes. The state of California, a pioneer in wind energy utilization, produces energy from its wind turbine farms in excess of 20 terawatts annually. That’s enough energy to power 3 million households.

Name:6: Exploring Hydroelectric Energy

Description:In this module, we’ll explore the ways water can generate electricity and discuss the components of low-head hydroelectric systems.

What do you picture when you hear the term “renewable energy?” Do you imagine fields of solar panels, giant windmills, or huge hydroelectric dams? Those are all examples of large-scale, grid-tied systems. In this course, we’ll go much smaller and focus on off-grid, stand-alone systems. We will explore the key components of photovoltaic, wind, and hydroelectric systems. We will examine photovoltaic, or PV, system components, and the scientific laws essential to understanding how renewable energy systems work. We will discuss wind energy and low-head hydroelectric systems, focusing on small-scale implementations. During our exploration of these systems, we will focus on safety and regulating bodies that guide proper system design. Throughout the course, you will be able to apply what you’re learning by conducting an energy audit to analyze power consumption, identifying essential system components of small-scale systems, building a budget for a small-scale system design, and creating a design for implementing a small-scale system.
