Application of Solar Powered Wheelbarrow for Energy Saving Cooking Process
Abstract
The development of solar energy to meet the various needs of human life is currently increasing. Solar Power Plant technology has also been widely introduced and applied in the community. The research is conducted to apply Solar PV technology which is used for energy-efficient cooking processes. Solar PV is the main component of the solar power plant that is used as an energy source to supply electricity to wheelbarrows. The dimensions of the wheelbarrow used are 180 cm long, 216 cm wide, and 150 cm high. The solar panel is monocristalline type with power capacity of 4 x 100 Wp. Other components includes 65 Ah VRLA Battery, 1000 W Inverter and 10 A Battery Control Regulator. This wheelbarrow has an electric stove and heater with an average 200 Watt power rating, also equipped with a 10 Watt lamp and a socket. This solar powered wheelbarrow is used for cooking approximately 6 hours with continuous use and longer for light or medium usage.
