The Future of Sustainable Energy: Exploring Innovative Solar Solutions

16/08/2022 No Comments

As we move towards a more sustainable future, the demand for eco-friendly energy solutions continues to rise. In this blog post, let’s explore some of the innovative solar solutions that are shaping the landscape of sustainable energy.

1. Solar-Powered Street Lights:

Cities worldwide are adopting solar-powered street lights as a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to traditional street lighting. These lights harness solar energy during the day, reducing electricity consumption and contributing to the overall sustainability of urban environments.

2. Off-Grid Solar Power Systems:

Off-grid solar power systems are gaining popularity for their ability to provide electricity in remote areas or locations with unreliable grid access. These systems, equipped with solar panels and advanced battery storage, offer a reliable and independent energy source, fostering energy autonomy.

3. Hybrid Home Solar Systems:

Hybrid home solar systems combine the benefits of grid-tied and off-grid systems, offering homeowners flexibility and control over their energy consumption. With advanced monitoring and control features, these systems optimize energy use, reduce reliance on conventional grids, and contribute to long-term cost savings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Solar-Powered Water Heaters:

Solar-powered water heaters are revolutionizing the way we heat water for residential and commercial purposes. By harnessing the sun’s energy, these systems provide a sustainable and efficient alternative to conventional water heating methods, reducing both costs and environmental impact.

5. Game Fencing with Solar-Powered Security:

In the realm of wildlife conservation, game fencing integrated with solar-powered security features is making a significant impact. These fences not only secure wildlife habitats but also utilize solar energy to power monitoring systems, contributing to the protection of endangered species.

At Ecovexsystems, we are at the forefront of implementing these innovative solar solutions. Join us in embracing a sustainable future powered by the sun. Stay tuned for more updates on the latest advancements in renewable energy and eco-friendly technologies.

Installation of Electric Fence

23/04/2021 One Comment

In this post, we will be looking at recent installation sites and in detail what each site requires in terms of materials and equipment. Each installation of an electric fence in Kenya requires different materials depending on the scope. For instance, a top-wall electric fence may require shorter fencing posts than a freestanding electric fence. Similarly, a game fence may be different from a residential fence. For instance, solar power is used to power most game fences.

Security Solution Tackled

We used a top-wall electric fence combined with razor wire to have a two-layer security fence. The fence is an eight (8) strand electric fence. The razor wire used is 450mm in diameter. In terms of energizer machines, we use Nemtek or JVA Energizer machines for the installation of electric fences in Kenya. To power and monitor the installed electric fence, we used Nemtek Druid 15 Energizer machine. The siren alarm used is a 30-watt siren sounder and strobe light to alert the homeowner.

Through technology and scientific research, scientists have been able to successfully find ways to secure homes. They have been able to discover alternative measures to secure homes. One of these is electric fences. By combining modern-day technology and barbed wires, the production of electric fences

Our client was looking to start a farm to grow fruits for export. His land neighbors a wildlife conservancy and the wild animals would gain access to feed on and destroy all the crops once the farmer starts growing them.

Our Electric Fencing Solution: Since the area has big wild animals like buffalo, we used CCA Pressure-treated wooden posts best known for their durability.12 strands of 2.5mm galvanized high tensile steel wires for security against human intrusion and wild animal attacks. Starfix X18i was used to power the fence.

1. How Worthy are the LED Flood Lights?

If you are wondering if it’s worth an investment, you must consider the benefits they offer. First of all, they are a cost-effective alternative compared to the halogen. How? In spite of a hefty investment at the initial stage, LED floodlights consume up to 80% less energy than their halogen counterparts, which cut down your energy costs in the long run.

Secondly, the lifespan of the LED is on the higher side compared to the halogen lights, which eliminates the need for frequent replacement.

Halogen floods can get too hot to touch, but the LED floods come with metal heat sinks that instantly direct heat away to maintain a lower running temperature. This also helps to extend the lifespan of the LED chips inside.

Whether you’re lighting-up a car park, a garage or your back garden, LED floodlights will offer a wider beam angle, thus, releasing better and a more efficient coverage.

2. How Bright are the LED Floodlights?

It’s already mentioned that LED light consume lesser watts than the halogen counterparts, which means they use a lot less energy. However, that does not delimit their brightness in any way. You can expect a better level of brightness in LED than the halogen. Since LED lights come with higher number of lumens, its brightness is never suffered.

3. Can You Dim Your LED Floodlight?

Not all LED floodlights are dimmable. If you need a dimmable bulb, make sure you check the product specification while buying it.

4. Parameters of Choosing LED Floodlight

So, if you are already convinced to buy this product, consider several things on a priority basis.

First of all, check the brightness. LED lights are already featured with higher number of lumens which determine their brightness. However, don’t forget to check the lumen count while buying as it would help you decide the brightness.

There are certain automatic capabilities that you might need to check on. There’s an additional security and efficiency option, such as a distance sensor, automatic time-mode or daylight sensor. A distance sensor prompts the floodlight to switch on automatically when motion is sensed within a certain distance of the light. Some flood lights also come with a time mode, which defines the time of its operation. Check out the colour and design options to find the best one according to your needs.

Flood lights have come a long way in the past couple of years with LED technology. Nowadays, they make a great choice, whether for residential or commercial usage.
