Abstract

A data base that documents multiple years of operation of four kWh-scale solar micro-grids based on lithium ferro phosphate batteries is discussed. The data base is fed from the University of Colorado at Boulder operated IEEE Smart Village (ISV) Testbed. The associated micro-grids are those that power the remote transceivers of this long range WiFi test system. Technology needed for long range WiFi operation is presented. Discussion is given to the origin of the ISV testbed with focus on the application of WiFi Long Distance (WiLD) technology to the developing world. A specific application for the testbed is considered in some detail. The use case is seen to dictate the data most needed from the testbed. Modifications presently being made to the testbed to improve the quality and availability of data generated for the data base are detailed. Completion of the improved data acquisition is seen to have been delayed by corona virus restrictions.
