Activ Solar power plant to build the 80 Mw
October 21, 2011 | 
Author Activ Solar has completed the construction of 80 megawatt solar Park and starts its activity in Odessa region. Austrian company Activ Solar is proud to announce the completion of the fourth and last queue solar Park is the largest solar photovoltaic installation ever constructed in Central and Eastern Europe. Station with a total capacity of 80 megawatts (MW) is located in more than 160 hectares and consists of approximately 360000 modules. The project is divided into four stages on the 20 Mw each. The first three were built and connected to the national network earlier this year. Station will produce 100000 megawatt-hours of electricity a year, and will be able to reduce carbon dioxide emissions up to 80000 tones per year. Solar power plant will be able to meet the electricity demand of about 20000 households.
Activ Solar also announces opening of Office in Odessa that will allow the company to take full advantage of growth in the region. Odessa has an advantageous geographical location and a good level of solar irradiation. CEO of Activ Solar notes: “opening an Office in Odessa demonstrates our continuing interest in the region, and allows us to more effectively and expands its activities at the local market. The company plans to create a significant number of jobs in the region for a number of projects in 2012 and subsequent years.
Information about the company: “Activ Solar is an international group of companies headquartered in Vienna (Austria), specializes in designing and manufacturing of solar technologies. The basic direction of activity of company is production of Silicon products and development of large-scale photovoltaic solar parks. CHAO semiconductor plant is a subsidiary of Activ Solar polysilicon production history, which began with the 1964 year. Activ Solar engaged in planning, financing and implementation of large-scale solar energy projects, bringing together world-class expertise, strategic partners and leading technology.

Solar Power Generation is One of the Alternative Power Plant
The sun is the main energy source for life on Earth. The energy radiated by the sun, the earth remains warm for the man, then circulate that water and air, the system can meet the needs of one’s life through photosynthesis. Solar energy needs can be used on Earth as an alternative energy source for electricity. Source of electrical energy used by man, still made from petroleum.
Petroleum is used as fuel for cars, motorcycles, machinery, and especially to the power plants fuel. However, fuel oil, including non-renewable and limited availability. The price also depends on the political situation and the global economy.
Rotary power is often attacked by the public. The main cause is the electrical load demand is higher than the dihasilan of PLN. Consequently, it must first get off regions power supply will remain safe. Each region is to make it a power failure at a specific time period.
Not because of the extra costs of street lighting will be borne by electricity users to be mentioned as well as rampant theft of electricity in the villages. In use, street lighting, this requires a great power. In remote villages, the network has a very long cable from the power source is always a matter of urgency, particularly when used for street lighting. This is no small investment.
Solar Power with the system is modular and portable solution that can be considered as an alternative energy source. The application of solar energy for street lighting, independent energy source used in remote villages.

Sunlight is an inexhaustible energy source
New energy sources that currently the most developed one of which is the source of solar energy, commonly called solar cells or solar energy. Sources of energy from sunlight is free of pollution was not limited to the amount and does not require a transmission network, so that it can be used anywhere to be independent as long as the sun is still biased affordable. Indonesia is actually a very strategic place for the use of solar energy because it is in the tropics. Highly optimized area receives sunlight.
The amount of emitted energy from the sun corresponds to 10,000 times the energy consumption in the world today. The use of solar energy do not interfere with atmospheric conditions and also do not produce pollutants that are harmful to living things.
Principle
The sunlight is absorbed by a semiconductor-coated cells and then converted into electricity. To be used at night, the electricity is usually stored in batteries was produced. The energy released sunlight actually received by the earth’s surface only 69% of the total energy of sunlight.
Which generates energy from sunlight is very large, about 3 x 1024 joules / year. Energy is equivalent to 2 x 1017 watts. meet with only 0.1% of the total sunlight sunlight on the entire surface of the earth energy demand worldwide.

various applications of solar energy
Solar energy is the primary energy for life on this earth. Various types of energy, both renewable and non-renewable energy is a form derived from it either directly or indirectly.
Here is some form of energy that is derived from solar energy for example:
* Wind energy arising due to the different of temperature and pressure one place to another place as the effects of solar thermal energy.
* The energy of water due to the hydrological cycle due to solar heat energy on earth.
* Biomass energy is due to the photosynthesis of plants that in fact it uses solar energy.
* The energy of ocean waves that arise due to wind energy.
* fossil energy is another form of biomass energy that has undergone the process for millions of years.
In addition, solar thermal energy also plays an important role in maintaining life on this earth. Without the heat energy from the sun, all life on this earth would be destroyed because the earth’s surface will be very cold and there is no creature that can live on earth.
Solar Thermal Energy as Alternative Energy
Solar thermal energy is one of the potential energy to be managed and developed further as a source of energy reserves, especially for countries located on the equator, including Indonesia, where the sun shines all year round. Can be seen from the figure above that the available solar energy amounted to 81 000 TerraWatt utilized while still very small.
There are several ways the utilization of solar thermal energy, namely:
1. Space heating
2. Room lighting
3. Solar cookers
4. Drying agricultural hasi
5. Dirty water distillation
6. Heating water
7. Electricity generation

Home Solar Power System Analysis
Are you looking for a solar home system perfect for your needs? Also were not alone, many people are now looking to one, cheap and environmentally friendly energy production to provide ways to run their homes.
Ideal for home solar energy saves you money and the environment need to consider some of the factors to find the help system. Here to help you make more educated decision when it comes to solar-powered home and indicators.
Solar home system is the right time?
Solar energy now to consider in their homes when it comes to generating energy to run an affordable option. The solar energy industry has matured over the past decade, and decreased the cost of solar panels dramatically. In the past 3 years the price decreased by 40%.
Time to consider the installation of solar energy is that these savings in initial costs involved within 1-3 years means that you will recover the initial outlay is right. We will discuss whether solar energy is the right choice for you below.
Your house is a house suitable for solar energy system?
You have made to implement the following changes to reduce the use of clean and renewable energy system and solar panels is easy to make yourself the ideal candidate?
