 In 1941 Russell ohl invented solar cell.
 Solar tree foundation which began in 2008 by Rein
Treifeldt.
 In 2012 Ross Lovegrove designed the solar tree.
 Solar energy
 What is solar tree
 Why we call it as solar
tree.
 How solar panel works
 Advantages
 Disadvantages
 Conclusion
 Powerful energy source , intensity at
surface is low.

 Solar power is the conversion


of energy from sunlight into
electricity, either directly using
photovoltaics, indirectly using
concentrated solar power, or a
combination.
A solar tree is a decorative means of producing solar energy and also electricity. It uses
multiple no. of solar panels which forms the shapes of a tree. The panels are arranged in a
tree fashion in a tall tower/pole.

Tree stands for


T = tree generating
R = renewable
E = energy
E = electricity

This is like a tree in a structure and the panels are like leaves of the tree
which produces energy.
Tree can produce their own food material by the process
called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
Leaves are producing food materials for human beings.
Likewise in solar tree solar panels are producing energy for
the society.
Photosynthesis cell converts sunlight
into electric energy and this effect is
known as photovoltaic cell.
Solar cells essentially create electricity
by converting photons of light into
electrons.
Solar cells producing direct current , or
DC , this DC current is converted to
alternating current , or AC by using
inverter.
 No pollution generated.
Electricity can be
accessed/feasible in rural areas.
Cost effective in the long run.
Land requirement is very less.
Efficient energy generation.
Aesthetically built.
 Cost is high.
 May cause hazards to the birds
and insects.
 Hazards to eyesight from solar
reflectors.
 To fulfill the increasing
energy demand for the
people.
 Saving of land, this project
is very successful one.
 This can provide electricity
without any power cut
problem.
 The extra energy can be
provided to the grid.
