Evaluation of Solar to Liquid fuel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798838345431)

Recently, climate change is the key issue that the world has to face. Renewable energy is considered as a potential technology to stop the global warming and also meet the energy demand. However, renewable sources are unstable and therefore need a conversion method to store electricity generated. Solar liquid fuel is a possible method to store renewable energy in liquid form. This research project concentrates to solar to liquid fuel. Formic acid is chosen as a case study. The project will demonstrate the technology that convert solar energy into formic acid and store at the ambient conditions. The simulations will compute the electricity generated by PV system in daily and monthly and the mass of formic acid could be produced by using solar energy. The two-axis solar tracking system is simulated for the PV panels. Two important parameters of the two-axis solar tracker are investigated: the elevation angle and Azimuth angle. The results will be illustrated in tables and figures. The research also considers the application of formic acid in direct formic acid fuel cell.
