The IITB internal exhibition rocked this year and are as good as the international exhibitions. Can’t believe it then you need to see it. Oh you didn’t, then you can see the images of all the individual exhibits right here and read about them. These exhibits mostly consisted either of power saving concepts or generating green energy.
I personally loved the solar lamp and the solar panel array. The solar lamp uses power LEDs instead of CFLs; consuming very low power. These lamps can be charged via AC and solar power and are already being used in the rural villages. The solar array panels are fitted with highly reflective aluminum sheets. These sheets help increase the intensity of the light and hence increases the power generation capacity of the panels by almost 60% thereby elevating the efficiency of the panels. The solar panel array will soon be tested in Delhi and might be commercialized (more…)
