This research project presents and exhibits the technical feasibility and development of a Community Solar Garden model by leveraging the intensity of the sun energy and harnessing its potency to deliver electrical energy and power using solar panels. Solar panels are devices that convert the sun light energy into direct current electricity. The solar panels are also referred to as photovoltaic which means light-electricity. A solar panel is a collection of solar cells that can spread over a large area to work together to provide sufficient energy to a large load centre. The more light that hits a cell the more electricity it produces. This green energy comes from the sun which is a natural resource and is very environment-friendly in the sense that it does not pollute the air. This is why it is therefore also referred to as clean energy. Its primary technology includes photovoltaics, concentrated solar power and also thermal collector. The solar garden produces an outcome that can be replenished at a rate equal to or faster than the rate at which they are consumed. This project is an integration and deployment of the photovoltaic technology in synergy with the relevant hardware and installations. The various units in this project include the solar panels, the batteries, the central control network, the charging unit, the inverting unit, the switching unit, the voltage protection unit and the feedback control unit which are functionally integrated and harmonized for availability of steady power output to consumers. The various units were functionally integrated and the entire installation demonstrated a commendable output of steady electricity supply. The output proves very reliable as a result of valid empirical findings in the research work.
