Abstract

Solar energy is most important form of renewable energy. It is cheap and easily available but it required a lot of area for production of solar power to install them in a particular space. This paper proposes a comparison of solar panel in matrix form and a solar power tree in a particular area. A solar power tree requires very less place to produce efficient energy. Solar Tree is made of metal structure , it has a number of solar panels which are used to give the shape of a tree and arranged in a tall tower. Spiralling phyllataxy is technique used to improve the efficiency of the plant as it prevent the lower panel shadowing. Solar photovoltaic modules are arranged in series form like fibonacci series in place of leaves in solar tree. By using this technique the amount of energy produced by solar tree is more than the energy produce by an array of solar cells. Solar trees are produces about 50% more electricity .The increasing energy demand, economy of land, the solar tree concept is very successful one and should be implemented to provide electricity. Solar tree is much better than the traditional solar PV system in area point of view and also more efficient.

Highlights

Solar Energy is the energy from the sun
Solar tree is a collection of solar module which is mounted on the branches of solar panel
They have a large number of solar module which are tilted at different angle and at different azimuth angle .They are placed in a certain manner on the tree like for example Fibonacci pattern, spiralling phyllotaxy, single trunk with branches, 3-axis symmetric design, Hemispherical semi-dome design which help to absorb more sunlight

Summary

Introduction

Solar Energy is the energy from the sun. It is available to every part of earth. It collects the solar energy from the sun and converts into useful form of energy They have a large number of solar module which are tilted at different angle and at different azimuth angle .They are placed in a certain manner on the tree like for example Fibonacci pattern, spiralling phyllotaxy, single trunk with branches, 3-axis symmetric design, Hemispherical semi-dome design which help to absorb more sunlight. They are made of metal and have leaves in the form of solar module.
