Title: Energy saving and Photovoltaics
Purpose: Students are expected to be able to recognize the performance and operation of a solar_tracker, in a greenhouse as well as the relationship of the automation subsystems that support a greenhouse and to:
• Invent a way to study the operation of a small photovoltaic tracker in the classroom, under various light conditions using a PC (Knowledge Level).
• Identify automation systems (at Knowledge Level).
To adopt the use of energy saving rules (Application Level)
• To evaluate and improve the Photovoltaic systems in a space (at the Level of Competencies).
• To clarify the principle of operation of photovoltaics.
• To discover the Arduino programming language and become able to use it
• Cooperate in groups
