EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 

About Project

Title of the proposed project 

Project proposal for installing street solar lights in 15 villages of District-Jhansi (U.P.) 

 

Proposed project activities 

The solar-powered led street lights activate from dusk to dawn. The LED street light automatically turns ON after the dusk and turns off after the dawn. The designing of the entire system includes: Solar panels, LED light, Rechargeable battery, Controller, Pole, and Interconnecting cables. During sunny days, they use solar panels to convert solar energy into electricity, and then store the electricity in batteries. At night, the electricity in the battery has been released to power the solar street lights. Solar technology's recent prevalence has seen both large organizations and individual consumers choose to integrate solar power into commercial facilities and homes nearly everywhere. Solar power's renewable, eco-friendly supply of energy isn't the only factor to consider when deciding to transition your household to a solar system, though. While the best solar companies simplify the solar panel installation process, 

 

Objectives of the proposed project 

  • To make the obstructions on the road and street clearly visible in order to promote safety and convenience. 
  • To make the street more attractive 
  • Efficient movement of vehicles and pedestrians at night time 
  • To increase the community value of the street 
  • Crime prevention 

 

Purpose of Solar Light 

It is a renewable energy source that does not emit greenhouse gases. In this way, it also plays a role in preventing the greenhouse effect. Village solar street light provides cheap and sustainable energy to rural communities, improving their lives. It requires no heavy wires or machinery to install. Solar-powered household lighting can replace other light sources like candles or kerosene lamps. Solar lamps have a lower operating cost than kerosene lamps because renewable energy from the sun is free, unlike fuel. In addition, solar lamps produce no indoor air pollution unlike kerosene lamps.

What is solar energy 

 

Until the sun exists, solar energy is infinite and is available in abundant quantities to mankind to satisfy all global energy needs. Today with the increasing speed of improvements in technology and innovations, the climate crisis can be solved with renewable sources like solar, nuclear, wind, biomass, etc. These eco-friendly and sustainable sources can replace decreasing fossil fuels like wood, petrol, crude oil, diesel, coal, etc. These renewable sources can power the whole planet, and underdeveloped countries can access electricity and heat at much lower costs. There are many devices and gadgets powered by solar energy like solar heaters, solar cookers, solar cells, solar batteries, solar calculators, solar watches, solar pumps for agricultural purposes, and many more. Even though currently, solar energy is used by a relatively small percentage of the population, it will become the primary source in the future that can be looked upon by coming generations. 

 

Home lighting System is powered by solar energy using solar cells that convert solar energy (sunlight) directly to electricity. The electricity is stored in batteries and used for the purpose of lighting whenever required. These systems are useful in non-electrified rural areas and as reliable emergency lighting system for important domestic, commercial and industrial applications. The SPV systems have found important application in the dairy industry for lighting milk collection/ chilling centers mostly located in rural areas. 

 

Solar Street Light system is designed for outdoor application in un-electrified remote rural areas. This system is an ideal application for campus and village street lighting. The system is provided with battery storage backup sufficient to operate the light for 10-11 hours daily. 

 

The system is provided with automatic ON/OFF time switch for dusk to down operation and overcharge I deep discharge prevention cut-off with LED indicators. 

 

In entire world there are more than 300 million of street lights, which emits 100 million tons of carbon dioxide per year. 40% of energy is wasted which costs around 20 billion dollars. Therefore for economical operation of street lights and reduction of carbon footprints, High efficient LED luminaries with smart control of illumination level are the demand and need of time. 

 

Features 

 

Most solar lights turn on and turn off automatically by sensing outdoor light using solar panel voltage. Solar streetlights are designed to work throughout the night. Many can stay lit for more than one night if the sun is not in the sky for an extended period of time. Older models included lamps that were not fluorescent or LED. Solar lights installed in windy regions are generally equipped with flat panels to better cope with the winds. 

 

Modern designs use wireless technology and fuzzy control theory for battery management. The street lights using this technology can operate as a network with each light having the capability of performing the turning on and off of the network. Solar street lights are designed to absorb energy during the day. This energy is used by the off-grid system to power LED lighting during the night. The main function of the solar panels is to convert sunlight into electrical energy through photovoltaic solar cells. 

 

 

Components 

Solar street lights consist of four main parts: 

 

 

Solar Panel 

The solar panel is one of the most important parts of a solar street light, as the solar panel can convert solar energy into electricity that the lamps can use. There are two types of solar panels commonly used in solar street lights: mono cry stalling and polycrystalline. The conversion rate of mono-crystalline solar panels is much higher than their poly-crystalline counterparts. Solar panels also vary in wattage systems. 

 

Lighting Fixture 

LEDs are usually used as the primary lighting source of modern solar street lights, as the LED will provide much higher luminosity with lower energy consumption. The energy consumption of an LED fixture is at least 50% lower than the HPS fixture counterpart which is widely used as the lighting source in traditional street lights. A lack of warm-up time in LEDs also allows for use of motion detectors for additional efficiency gains. 

 

Rechargeable Battery 

Batteries will store the electricity generated by the solar panel during the day and provide energy to the fixture during the night. The life cycle of the battery is very important to the lifetime of the light and the capacity of the battery will affect the backup days of the lights. There are two types of batteries commonly used in solar-powered street lights- gel cell deep cycle batteries as well as lead acid batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are also popular due to their compact size. 

 

Pole 

Strong poles are necessary to all street lights, especially to solar street lights as there are often components mounted on the top of the pole: fixtures, panels and sometimes batteries. However, in some newer designs, the PV panels and all electronics are integrated in the pole itself. Wind resistance is also a factor. 

In addition, accessories do exist for these types of poles, such as a foundation cage and battery box. 

 

Type 

Each street light can have its own photo voltaic panel, independent of other street lights. Alternately, a number of panels can be installed as a central power source on a separate location and supply power to a number of street lights. 

All-in-one type solar street lights are gaining popularity due to their compact design which incorporates all of the parts necessary in a compact manner including the battery. 

The city of Las Vegas, Nevada was the first city in the world that tested new Planet Solar Street lights which are coupled with kinetic tiles that produce electricity when people walk over them. 

 

Advantages 

Solar street lights are independent of the utility grid. Hence, the operation costs are minimized. 

  • Solar street lights require much less maintenance compared to conventional street

lights. 

  • Since external wires are eliminated, risk of accidents is minimized. 
  • Electricity produced from solar panels is non-palliative. 
  • Separate parts of a solar panel system can easily be transported. 
  • Energy costs can be saved. 

 

 

 

 

 

Disadvantages 

 

  • Initial investment is higher compared to conventional street lights.
  • Risk of theft is higher as equipment costs are comparatively higher. 
  • Snow or dust, combined with moisture can accumulate on horizontal PV-panels and

reduce or even stop energy production. 

  • Rechargeable batteries will need to be replaced several times over the lifetime

of the fixtures adding to the total lifetime cost of the light. 

  • The charge and discharge cycles of the battery are also very important considering

the overall cost of the project. 

 

Market Potential 

 

The proposed smart solar LED streetlight can be operated free of cost with sufficient solar charging. The system can be made more reliable by using auto changeover technique; in which streetlight is automatically switched to utility supply if there is insufficient charge in battery storage. 

 

The battery starts charging in daytime via PV solar panel. With the help of light sensor (LOR), in dusk, streetlight automatically turns on with 30% of intensity and battery starts discharging. If there is any movement of vehicle or person then intensity of light will increase from 30% to 100% for preset time period. After this preset delay intensity will gradually reduce to 30%. In-between this if any movement is detected then again intensity will increase to its maximum. This ensures optimum lighting as well as.

In-between this if any movement is detected then again intensity will increase to its maximum. This ensures optimum lighting as well as energy saving. With this automation technique, capacity (Ah) of battery required is much less a compared to conventional solar LED streetlight. The Adriano microcontroller receives command signal from LOR light sensor, motion sensor and charge controller and controls streetlight according to program loaded into it. 

 

The demand of Solar Light Systems is day by day increasing due to it works on consumption of natural source of energy i.e. sun light. Use of electric power in decreasing and people are shifting towards use of solar power. Many subsidies are also being given by Indian Government on use of Solar Power. 

 

Working of Proposed System 

 

  • During day time solar panel produces electricity and it stored in the battery. 
  • In dusk to dawn time light sensor gives command to arguing controller. As per program it executes command and turns LED ON to 30% of max intensity when there is no motion below streetlight. 
  • If any person or vehicle passes nearby streetlight, motion sensor activates and gives command to arduino to increase brightness to 100%. 
  • After preset time and if there is no movement detected, intensity reduces gradually to 30%. 
  • At the time of morning LOR will send command to arduino and hence street light will turn OFF. 
  • Normally streetlight will operate from electricity stored in the battery. 
  • If battery is not charged sufficiently due to cloudy weather condition then streetlight will automatically switch to utility supply. 

 

Power Calculation 

 

Power consumption per month for existing SV, LED and Smart solar LED Street light Existing SV lamp: 

(150W)*(l2Hrs) *(30days) =54 kWhr 

2- Ordinary LED lamp: 

(30W)*(12Hrs) *(30days)  =10.8 kWhr 

3-LED lamp with automatic intensity control: ((30W*6Hrs) + (10W*6Hrs)) *(30days) = 7.2kWhr 

 

The streetlight with solar PV panel does not consumes any power from utility supply, therefore operates free of cost within provided backup from battery.

Solar Street Lighting 

 

Solar street lighting, unlike traditional street lighting, has not been around for many years. These street lights are not connected to the electrical power grid: 

 

The solar light will produce its own energy from the sun (photovoltaic panel) and store the energy in a battery until the light turns on once it is dark enough. 

 

There are a few different ways that solar lighting can be used off grid. One way the solar can be connected through a micro grid which essentially a mini power grid used specifically for the lights; another way is that each street light can be a stand-alone system. 

 

Solar Photovoltaic Array (PV) Units Solar photovoltaic devices generate electricity directly from sunlight though an electronic process that occurs in certain types of material called semiconductors. The material frees the electrons when photons (particles of sunlight) hit the material; solar energy can be induced to travel though electrical circuits where it is sent out to power an electrical device or send electricity to the grid. 

 

Solar cells today are mostly made from either crystalline silicon or thin-filmed semiconductor material. Silicon is pricey, but research has shown that it is very efficient at converting sunlight to electricity. 

 

Sometimes thin-film materials are used as these materials are less expensive. The downside is that these materials are not as efficient as silicon and require more area of material to generate electricity. 

 

A solar panel is much like the micro PV flexible sheets as it consists of many small units called PV cells.

A solar panel is much like the micro PV flexible sheets as it consists of many small units called PV cells. These cells are linked together and allow photons to knock electrons free from atoms; this generates a flow of electricity. 

 

Off-grid system has batteries and there is a battery meter which indicates much energy is having left in the batteries. The stages of off-grid systems are: 

  • The sun light hits the PV cells where the electrons are knocked loose 
  • This second stage is where it is a little different than on-grid. Instead of going straight to the inverter, the electricity will go through a charge control unit. The charge controller will prevent over charging the batteries as mentioned in the third stage. 
  • The third stage is where the electricity is sent to the batteries from the charge controller. The batteries will charge until full. The energy will be stored until it is need during periods of no sunlight or when the user is using more energy than what is generated. 
  • In the fourth stage, the electricity will either be sent out as direct current to DC appliances or to an inverter where the DC will be converted to AC for the AC appliances. 
  • In the home, there is a battery meter indicating much battery charge remains. If the indicator light is green, the stored electricity is okay. A yellow light indicates the batteries are getting low. A red light indicates the system needs to be shut off to let the batteries recharge or the batteries can damaged.

SKILL DEVELOPMENT

Project Proposal Details:

Objective of the Project

 

  1. Achieving self-reliance in literacy and numeracy (the norms for achievement)
  2. Becoming aware of the causes of their deprivation and moving towards amelioration of their condition through implementing society and participation in the process of development.
  3. Acquiring skills to improve the economic status and general well being.
  4. To prevent migration of the rural poor candidates to cities by enabling those to realize that agriculture and other rural occupations are not as regarding as those in the urban areas.
  5. To create new skills among rural poor candidates through which villages can become self reliant.
  6. To inspire prospective rural poor candidates entrepreneurs to learn modern techniques/ methods in training and entrepreneurship skills.

 

PLACE OF PROJECT

It has been decided by management committee that to start this project proposal in District­ Jhansi (U.P.) due to following reasons.

  1. That in District- Jhansi (U.P.) society has been carrying out its activities for the last several years in same field so no problem shall be faced by it in implementing this project.
  2. That in District- Jhansi (U.P.) skill development training having very good opportunity for candidates who unemployed.
  3. That in District- Jhansi (U.P.) there in chins of uneducated, unemployed candidates and by starting this center several of them will self depend.
  4. That in District- Jhansi (U.P.) number of poor class families are more therefore this training center shall be a boon to those families.

 

TARGET GROUP

The target group to be covered under the proposed programme includes marginalized, assets less rural poor women and the urban poor. This includes wage laborers unpaid daily workers, female headed household's migrant laborers tribal and other dispossessed groups with special focus on poor and needy candidates.

It has been decided by management committee that for this training only youth of poor class families shall be taken however care shall be taken that they must be hard working honest and obedient.

In shall also be cared that candidate must belong to the age group of 18-35 years and must be literate.

 

 

 

 

NEED OF THIS PROGRAMME

Unemployment is biggest problem in our country. Thousands of candidates are idle in absence of proper employment this time it is very essential that these candidates should be provided training in such trade which should be easy to learn and should be job oriented. For this purpose in training of above trades is very suitable because this trade is suitable to average mind of candidates. Since rural area of District- Jhansi (U.P.) is places where people of several castes therefore here demand always stand. Therefore such training shall be very beneficial for trainees. Fashion Designing & Beautician is known for all trainees, always run in shortage, therefore such trainees has very good job opportunities.

TRADITIONAL FOLK DANCE & CULTURAL EVENT

DETAILS OF THE PROJECT

 

The Traditional Folk Dance, Music & Drama Festival will be organized by the Shreshthaa Foundation Welfare Education Society in District- Jhansi (U.P.) India's rich cultural diversity has contributed significantly to various forms of folk music Almost every region in India has its own folk music, which reflects the way of life Traditional folk music has been defined 1n several ways: as music transmitted orally, music with unknown composers, or music performed by custom over a long period of time. The art and culture programmer is now inaugurating a new imitative that focuses on arts education. This new line of work, which includes support both for culture in the arts and culture through the arts, builds on the traditional commitment to promoting pluralism and diversity and to preserving and revitalizing the cultures and arts of the many communities and societies of the region especially those on the margins.

WOMAN EMPOWERMENT

Women empowerment refers to making women powerful to make them capable of deciding for themselves. Women have suffered a lot through the years at the hands of men. In earlier centuries, they were treated as almost non-existent. As if all the rights belonged to men even something as basic as voting. As the times evolved, women realized their power. There on began the revolution for women empowerment.

Essay on Women Empowerment

As women were not allowed to make decisions for them, women empowerment came in like a breath of fresh air. It made them aware of their rights and how they must make their own place in society rather than depending on a man. It recognized the fact that things cannot simply work in someone’s favor because of their gender. However, we still have a long way to go when we talk about the reasons why we need it.

Need for Women Empowerment

Almost every country, no matter how progressive has a history of ill-treating women. In other words, women from all over the world have been rebellious to reach the status they have today. While the western countries are still making progress, third world countries like India still lack behind in Women Empowerment.

In India, women empowerment is needed more than ever. India is amongst the countries which are not safe for women. There are various reasons for this. Firstly, women in India are in danger of honor killings. Their family thinks its right to take their lives if they bring shame to the reputation of their legacy.

WORLD EARTH DAY

OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT  Our global community has been shocked by the largest global crisis in a generation. COVID-19 has shown us the necessity of thinking ahead, but the next crises are already on their way. Plastic uses by public species loss our earth, pandemics and massive natural disasters might define the future, unless we do something now. We have the solutions, both natural and technological. We just need the will.    Plastic wreaks havoc on marine life and leeches toxic chemicals into their bloodstream. These chemicals eventually enter human food supplies. Even on the earth, plastic causes a host of civic problems such as blocking drains, creating pools of stagnant water which are fertile breeding grounds for vector-borne diseases.    Even the plastic which ends up in "proper" disposal channels causes problems. Plastic recycling systems are inefficient, and therefore the process is economically unviable. Waste is often redirected to incinerators instead, which contributes significantly to air pollution because of the use of low-quality machinery.    Or plastic ends up in landfills, which, in India and many other parts of the world, are unsanitary and cause chemicals to leach into the soil and water.    Plastic litter costs tourism, shipping, and fishing industries in the Asia-pacific region alone $1.3 billion a year. It also causes an estimated $13 billion worth of damage to the global marine ecosystem annually. The most disturbing metric of all is that only 9% of all the plastic ever produced has ever been recycled.      WHAT IS PLASTIC POLLUTION  what exactly is plastic pollution? Essentially, ifs the accumulation of synthetic plastic products in the environment that reaches an extent where it causes problems for wildlife habitats ecosystems and human populations.    Initially, plastic use was revolutionary. However, by the end of the 20th century, we were seeing plastic pollution span all kinds of environments, including the bottom of the ocean and high in the mountains. In our open step about alternatives to fossil-fuel-derived plastics, you can find some shocking statistics about plastic pollution.  WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF PLASTIC POLLUTION?  Most prominent causes below :  We create large amounts of waste. A lot of our waste is made of plastic, and we create a lot of litter as a society. If we were less wasteful, we could make a difference in this area.    Commercial fishing nets. While sometimes necessary, fishing nets can leak toxins, break and polJute oceans, and even stay permanently and trap sea life. Better management and harsher fishing laws are needed.    Mismanaged plastic disposal. So much plastic doesn't get recycled when it should - instead, it goes to landfills or ends up scattered around the landscape. It is also often burned, releasing fossil fuels and creating air pollution.  Decomposition time. It takes over 400 years for plastic to decompose, which an incredibly long time is considering the amount of plastic we need to get rid of.  Nature spreads pollution. Unfortunately, the wind, rivers, and ocean can all spread pollution naturally due to the commonly lightweight nature of plastic.  Overuse of plastic. This is the biggest cause - we overproduce plastic to an enormous extent. We can't possibly manage the amount of waste created.      WHY PLASTIC WASTE IS DAMAGING THE PLANET  It disrupts the food chain. This happens in many ways, but one notable example is animals eating plastics and this getting passed down the food chain and damaging the health f these animals.    It can be dangerous for human health. Plastics getting into our food supply can also negatively impact our health, as we're consuming poisonous substances.    Groundwater pollution can affect our water supply. Plastics in our water supplies can release a lot of harmful toxins that end up going into our bodies, yet again.    It's harmful to animals. Besides being harmful to consume, animals can also be injured or even killed by plastic. Marine animals often get trapped in nets, and land animals suffocate in plastic bags.    It causes land, air and water pollution. Plastic causes all kinds of pollution -we've spoken about land and water pollution, but it also creates air pollution just by being created in the first place.  Clearig areas of plastic waste is difficult and expensive. The amount of plastic waste in the world is so huge that it's extremely difficult to get rid of it and requires a lot of money.    PLACE OF PROJECT    Project implementing at District-Jhansi (U.P.)  TOPIC TO BE DISCUSSION & IMPORTANCE OF THE SEMINAR:  Group Discussion on atmosphere pollution against plastic uses  Discussion on "How to save the earth from plastic".  Craft Competition against plastic uses.  Flow Chart.  Poster Competition on "No plastic for good life"  Audio-visual display  Drawing/Painting competition against plastic uses  Discussion on Role of NGO's promotion of "Planet versus Plastics"            HOW CAN WE REDUCE OUR PLASTIC WASTE ?    Recycle  Recycling has a positive impact on the planet as it prevents too many plastics from ending up in landfills. Recycling is still more productive than chucking everything in the same bin. Here are three rules that generally can be followed no matter where you are:  Recycle clean bottles, cans, paper and cardboard.  Don't put food or liquids in your recycling.  No loose plastic bags or recycled goods should be placed in plastic bags.      Avoid single-use plastics    Single-use plastic items are one of the biggest offenders when it comes to plastic pollution. You might find it harder than you'd think to stay away from them, but noticing how prevalent they are in daily life is a good first step.    Some common examples that contain single-use plastic include plastic-wrapped vegetables in supermarkets, wet wipes, cotton buds, plastic cutlery, coffee cups, straws, sanitary products and cigarettes. Luckily, there are plenty of alternatives if you look for them.    Use alternative packaging    It can make a difference for alternative packaging options. Whether a cafe or have a small business could try more sustainable packaging options, including paper and cardboard. If work in the food industry, might be interested in Introduction to Sustainable Practices in Food Service course by International Culinary Studio.    Sometimes. we do need packaging that at least emulates plastic in order to protect products, particularly when it comes to food. Bioplastics are plastics made from renewable, bio-based materials like cellulose, and they have the potential to biodegrade more quickly than normal plastics.    Buy from local markets and low-waste shops    If you don't quite have the time and energy to grow your own food, consider buying food from locar markets and low-waste shops instead. Depending on the local area you live in, buying from markets can be either more or less expensive than supermarkets - so it's a good idea to do some research beforehand and find the best option for you.    Low-waste shops are notably more expensive, but they can be a great option for dried goods such as pasta, rice, pulses and nuts. You usuafly bring your own containers with you and fill them as needed - no waste created! You can learn more about tackling food waste in our course, From Waste to Value: How to Tackle Food Waste.    Avoid micro plastics    Micro plastics are a term we use to describe pieces of plastic debris that are less than 5mm in length. They are a big problem, especially in our oceans, as fish will often unknowingly consume micro plastics.    micro plastics and micro beads in open steps, but essentially you should try to avoid them. They can be found in many health, beauty and cleaning products. Microfibres come from clothing and other soft furnishings, so this is another reason why it's useful to buy plastic-free fabrics.    Sustainable Use of Natural Resources:    The goal of sustainable development is to provide resources for the use of present populations without compromising the availability of those resources for future generation, and without causing environmental damage that chaHenges the survival of other spices and natural ecosystems. Renewable clean energy is probably the most obvious example of sustainability. Here are three examples. Solar energy, wind energy and water energy.  Follow the SHRESHTHAA FOUNDATION (NGO) channel on WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VabMOyxCcW4pN3NSdA0m
