Abstract |
|
The solar power is the one of the fast growing renewable energy source in India and in the world. India, in particular, has solar power generation with present installed capacity of over 1400 MW. A modern solar plant requires sensing and controlling various parameters like temperatures of moving parts. Fibre optics with its electrical isolation and being light weight characteristics can have great potential to sense control parameters of solar panel and to communicate to the control unit. Fibre optic sensors are precise and reliable under electrical hazardous environment of solar power plant. Fibre optic technology has proved itself in present communication system. The same high speed long, distance communication networking can apply in solar farm. This paper discusses the application of fibre optic technology and its benefits in the operation of solar power plant. |
