Abstract

The global energy landscape is in the midst of a transformative shift, compelled by the urgent need to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and embrace eco-friendly alternatives. Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have emerged as a promising alternative, offering the distinct advantage of performing well in low-light conditions, including indoor environments. Extensive research and development efforts are dedicated to realizing the full potential of OPVs as adaptable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly solar energy solutions. This paper conducts a thorough examination of the intricate characterization of organic solar cells, with a specific emphasis on crucial parameters like power conversion efficiency, open-circuit voltage, and fill factor. The study utilizes a single diode model to simulate these cells' behavior, employing a meticulous process for parameter extraction. This method leverages Origin software and Python programming, incorporating open-source packages to ensure robust validation. This systematic and rigorous approach significantly enhances our comprehension of OPVs and plays a substantial role in optimizing their performance. In essence, this research represents a significant step forward in advancing sustainable energy technologies, laying a foundation for a greener and more environmentally conscious future.

Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of a sensor-enabled off-grid solar charge controller aimed at maximizing the utilization of renewable energy. The proposed system integrates solar and load power sensors to minimize solar energy wastage. A microcontroller is employed to efficiently monitor and regulate battery voltage, solar power generation, and load demand. This system is designed to optimize solar energy usage, reduce dependency on the electrical grid, and lower electricity bills. Additionally, a main supply controller board with a display is introduced, along with a smart scheduler for appliance management. Prior to deployment, total solar power wastage was recorded at 93.1 watts per day. After implementing the proposed solution, wastage was reduced to 13.1 watts per day—reflecting an 85.92% reduction. These results confirm the system’s effectiveness in reducing energy loss, increasing self-consumption, and promoting energy sustainability in off-grid environments. It is important to note that this value may vary based on factors such as temperature, cloud cover, fog, and irradiation levels.
