PROJECT OVERVIEW The overview of the above project is to develop a smart solar street light system using renewable energy (Solar) with smart system . India is a tropical country with solar radiation for almost 360 days using renewable reduce the power consumption largely. Thus it reduce green house gas (CO2) emitted during power generation . The number of street light even in town like virudhunagar is around 3000 in Nos . These lights are energy inefficient & most of the light are burning even in broad day light as the street light are operated manually with no automation . The maintenance & electricity bill amounts large around fifty lakhs per year . With increased load shedding & increased tariff the cost are spiraling. In order to reduce bill & frequent outage due to power cut The Best solution envisaged is to install solar powered LED street light system in phased manner. With remote monitoring along with a smart system. This Smart system are capable of reducing the brightness to various level accordingly . Using renewable energy for lighting mitigate the power outage due load shedding. The smart system capable of measuring the Luminous intensity and adjust the Brightness level . Normally the people movement is lesser at night hour , the smart system reduces the Lumen level to 50 -75 % . In early morning the Brightness further reduce to 50% . In case of People Movement detection using Passive Infrared ray (PIR Sensors)in lean hours the brightness level increased to 100% for detected duration . The system also incorporates a Tran receiver to communicate to central office node with various detail like light condition, battery condition etc. The central office we can also find all the Light system details & condition thus easy for monitoring . The light system can also be remotely controlled from central office. The earlier model consist of only remote control and dawn to dusk controller . The smart system run on solar power does not depend on utility services . The Smart solar street light system helps to reduce the green house gas ,ecofriendly and cost effective in the long run .

BATTERY BANKS

Components : Solar panels are one of the basic components of a photovoltaic system. While many semiconductors exhibit some limited photovoltaic effects, in nature the electrons are emitted into the environment and lost. A solar cell is necessary to harness the electron emissions and focus them into a usable current Batteries are helping to save power and the environment without taking away or having to sacrifice modern technological conveniences. Several of these batteries are known as Deep-Cycle batteries. These types of batteries are a lead-acid battery design that is regularly discharged using most of its retention. The lower amps mean that the batter has to be substantially bigger because of the way it operates in providing a slow yet constant flow of energy to the application its powering. Deep-cycle batteries also work in what is called cycles providing a power charge during each cycle. charge controllers are regulators; which determines the rate at which electric currents are added drawn from electric batteries. Basically this just means

that the charge controller determines how much power the battery receives so that no electricity is lost or wasted. By controlling the charge that the batteries receive the product then becomes much safer from users. It also ensures that the batter sees a long life span and provides sufficient power to the user. LED Driver : Driver circuit for LED lighting . Since we use LED LIGHTs there is no need for inverter DC- AC Conversion .. We can use DC- DC driver Get Supply from Battery LED Light had matured a lot the lumen output per watt increased considerably . LED light had a life Hours 100000 Hour around 25 years . LED can switched On/OFF At instant with out any limitation Microcontroller (C) is a small computer on a single integrated circuit consisting of a relatively simple CPU combined with support functions such as a crystal oscillator, timers, watchdog, serial and analog I/O etc. Program memory in the form of NOR flash or OTP ROM is also often included on chip, as well as a, typically small, read/write memory. Microcontrollers are designed for small applications. Thus, in contrast to the microprocessors used in personal computers and other high-performance applications, simplicity is emphasized. They will generally have the ability to retain functionality while waiting for an event such as a button press or other interrupt; power consumption while sleeping (CPU clock and most peripherals off) may be just nanowatts, making many of them well suited for long lasting battery applications. Microcontrollers are used in automatically controlled products and devices. By reducing the size and cost compared to a design that uses a separate microprocessor, memory, and input/output devices, microcontrollers make it economical to digitally control even more devices and processes

Sensors : Photovoltaic PV Sensor Automatically adjusts the LED light output in response to ambient light levels. The LED output to ambient light level matrix is fully programmable. Automatic LED Temperature Control Will automatically reduce if the PN junction exceeds the set operating temperature. PIR Movement Sensors Used to trigger a single light or a group of lights in common or multiple areas. Ideal for storage facilities. Wirelessly controlled no need for cabling between lights. Lighting Schedules A range of scheduler can be programmed ,various power saving modes. Schedule 24/7 on/off dimming etc. Radio Control Full remote control of all parameters is possible from a control PC via a radio interface. No need for cables or access equipment. Advanced Control Include fault reporting, dimming from any output power, ramping power timer and system diagnostics, alarms, history, ramping from 0 seconds2 hours, admin, etc. Dimming facility The time when the traffic is heavy, we may use brighter light fittings while and at the time of less traffic flow we may use dimmer by programme. Reduction of wastage by street lighting control system In street light control system the switching ON and OFF of a street light is controlled automatically. The system should be designed to automatically switch ON at dusk, operated throughout the night and automatically switch OFF at dawn,. For these purpose we use a sensor which is known as light sensor. MASTER NODE

Working Principle Solar panel charges the Battery throough Charge controller during daytime . The Battery will provide power to LED Lights controlled by LED Driver . Led Driver get the Input from Microcontroller output . The Microcontroller are programmed in such a way that output depends on various sensors like PIR sensors , ambient sensors (LDR) , Timer . The Light parameter can be got through the transreceiver By polling . This data are stored in database & also to find the Light sataus , battery condition on real time . By using GIS application , The operator can easily have the visual picture to take proper action as required . The above system eliminates the manual Turn ON/OFF . Fault finding is easier . Cost effective , Eco friendly stand alone system . Benefits of solar street light No fuel No noise and pollution Minimum maintenance is required Automatically operated No technicians are required No wiring Warranty of 25 years for solar module No monthly electricity bill Ecofreindly Conclusion The above Project in corporate various energy saving features like dimming facility , remote control & other s make the Smart solar street light system is eco friendly & Cost effective .
