Abstract:
This thesis describes a preliminary prototype building and data analysis of fish
house for renewable energy research. Today, the major issues of the world
are undoubtedly the energy problems and global warming or familiarly known
as climate change occurs due to the increase in the average temperature of
the Earth's near-surface air and the oceans. There reasons why we should
use the alternative energy nowadays are can decreasing the climate change,
friendly user to environment, safe to use and helping the farm's owner reduce
electric consumption. This study is aimed to analyze the data obtained from
the solar panel used on a prototype of fish house for renewable energy
research. Solar energy or solar photovoltaic (PV) electricity generation is form
of renewable energy (RE) which is clean, non-depleting and does not emit any
greenhouse gases (GHGs) since it generates energy directly from the sun by
means of PV effects. This project includes a methodology started with the
development of a preliminary design of fish house, building the actual
prototype, solar panel collection, data analysis and finally discussion. The
preliminary study on data collection of voltage was conducted by using
Arduino and LabView as data logger. Through this paper, by considering of
economical aspects, using the solar panel system to support fish farm
activities is more economical rather than using the electric provided by the
TNB.
