    Summary and Questions

    This time we're reviewing the main topics of our latest lessons:

    • TCO (PV,solar thermal,wind)
    • ROI (PV,solar thermal,wind)
    • kW/day
    • V=IxR
    • P=I^2xR
    • P=V^2 : R
    • Kill-a-Watt
    now, we're inventing two fictional questions about any of these topics:

    1) We have a PV that costs 1000$ and has an amperage of 3,34 A and a voltage of 120 V, HELCO pays us .50 $ for every kW/h generated every day, the PV has a lifetime of 15 years and works for 5 hours every day, calculate the ROI and the TCO.

    2)We are using three different types of light bulbs that generate the same amount of light, a conventional bulb (0,50 Amperes), a CFL bulb (0,31 Amperes) and a LED lamp (0,05 Amperes), supposing that our outlets are intended to generate 120V, calculate the quantity of Watts used and determine what's the most efficent bulb.
