The P3 – Photovoltaic
Power Plant
Remote sensors, pumps, cameras, communications equipment, lights and other devices need dependable power. The P3 System delivers the correct amount of continuous green power, anywhere you need it. No generators or power lines are required. Understanding Power Ratings—What You Need to Know Solar power is frequently added with little understanding of the actual equipment operating requirements or of the dynamics of how a solar system operates. Many suppliers offer solar systems with power ratings based on the total peak power rating of the solar panels they include. For example, a 100 watt system might consist of two panels rated at 50 watts each. It is true that such a system can deliver 100 watts during the hours that the sun is well overhead and under cloudless conditions. However, such a system cannot actually operate a 10 watt camera and a 15 watt wireless link for 24 hours a day, day after day. This type of rating is misleading and will lead to disappointing performance. Serious Uninterrupted Energy When the P3 System is rated at 100 watts, we mean it will deliver 100 watts every hour, 24 hours a day, even if the sun doesn’t shine for a couple of days. It will recharge its batteries even while delivering 100 watts for 24 hours of every day. When considered in these terms, a so-called 100 watt system composed of two 50 watt panels, properly installed, would actually be rated at only about 6 watts. For a more direct comparison, our 100 watt plant has a peak power rating of 1750 watts for the panels alone. However, we consider this to be a 100 watt system because that is the absolute dependable power support you receive, day after day, including night hours and some cloudy days. Our systems are designed with a complete understanding of your needs and can be built for any requirement. A P3 System can deliver a much higher output for a shorter time, for example the 100 watt system can deliver 2400 watts for one hour a day, or 300 watts for an eight hour shift. This is serious energy, delivered full time with specifications you can rely on.
Flexible Mounting Arrangements
Consider adding:
A quick explanation on the columns. Power rating in watts is the amount of power you have available per hour. Peak watts is the amount of solar power you have when the sun is shining brightly. The watts per day is how much power you have in a 24 hour period. If you only need to run something 8 hours, on our 15 watt system you could actually run something that consumed 45 watts. A system can be designed to support 12VDC, 24VDC, 48VDC and 120VAC.
