  40. Daily Energy Consumption Calculations Amps for battery From sensors/ Transmitter/CPU From sensors/ Transmitter/CPU Total Amp hour/day = 0.1006 A-hr/day

  41. A rough rule of thumb gives battery capacity in terms of the number of days of storage required for different latitudes Latitude Days storage 0º - 30º 5-10 30º - 40º 10-15 40º - 50º 15-20 50º+ 20 + Battery Capacity calculation

  42. Latitudinal Values in State of Wisconsin

  43. The actual battery capacity required is the number of days storage multiplied by the daily load of the system Lat. Of Milwaukee is 42.950N 15 days * 0.1006A-hrs/day = 1.509 AH battery capacity. Battery capacity calculation

  44. Wisconsin Solar Access Laws Authority 1:Wis. Stat. § 66.0401 Effective Date:  1/1/81 Authority 2:Wis. Stat. § 66.0403 Authority 3:Wis. Stat. § 236.292 Summary:Wisconsin law allows property owners with wind or solar-energy systems to apply for permits guaranteeing unobstructed access to solar and wind resources. A permit may not be granted if an obstruction already exists or if the construction of such an obstruction is well into the planning stages. In addition, a separate provision voids any restrictions on platted land that prevent or unduly restrict the construction and operation of solar-energy systems or wind-energy systems.

  45. Reliability

  46. Summary Slides for Reliability • As shown, the solar panel and the 12V batteries would • fall at the buttom of the reliability chart, followed by the • comparator. This could be overcome by selecting for • wider voltage and current ratings.
