Estação de estudo alimentada por energia fotovoltaica

Abstract

Photovoltaic energy is very promising and important in the preservation of natural resources. This project intends to develop Stations of Study in the external dependencies of UFOPA fully fed by photovoltaic panels installed in strategic points and with technology of low environmental impact. This unit will allow the simultaneous use of up to 04 notebooks or other low-power digital devices such as cameras, cell phones, tablets, smartphones and other devices. Adequate lighting will also be provided for nighttime use. The structure of the station will be fixed and made of certified wood and covered with ecological tiles, leaving it with a rustic appearance, combining with the natural landscape of the Institution. These stations aim to allow academics to have a space for conducting research, study and developing academic works outdoors. In the work are treated the basic concepts of photovoltaic energy, the Arduino development environment, the operation of some sensors and modules, as well as the design of the system and its results.
