Bus station solar power generation project

Can a solar-powered bus route be used in a small-scale transportation system?

We investigate the application of a solar-powered bus route to a small-scale transportation system, as such of a university campus. In particular, we explore the prospect of replacing conventional fossil fuel buses by electric buses powered by solar energy and electricity provided by the central grid.

How is solar energy used in a bus station system?

And the collected solar energy is stored by batteries for use by the bus station system. With the electronic bus stop sign in the system, the GPS positioning information is received by the STM32 main control system, then latitude and longitude information is sent by GSM to the station receiving system.

How much solar energy does a bus stop use?

Based on the average annual solar radiation at the the area of all bus stops is 166 MWh. Considering the so- of operation. These calculations are summarized in T able 1. would be required on average. ing the energy in a high-capacity battery of 700 kWh. In this of 3000 m 2inside the campus (Fig. 4). The area of a com- al., 2016).

What is a multi-function bus system based on solar energy?

Aiming at the above problems, a multi-function bus system based on solar energy is designed in this paper. In the system, the direction of sunlight exposure is collected through the photosensitive sensor, which is transmitted to the STM32 main control system, so that the solar panel is always perpendicular to the sun’s rays.

Is solar bus station a symbol of urban progress?

Solar bus station has become a symbol of urban progress. Although the first solar bus station has appeared in Guangzhou, it has not been popularized nationwide until now. Therefore, the research on solar bus station is of great significance.

How much solar radiation does a bus use?

2008). Based on the average annual solar radiation at the the area of all bus stops is 166 MWh. Considering the so- of operation.
