[2] IMPLEMENTATION
• Solar panel: A solar panel consists of solar cells that convert
energy of light directly into electricity by photovoltaic
effect.
• Battery: Acts as a storage unit for energy from solar panels,
and a power unit for LED lighting panels.
• Solar tracker: Keeps a track of the trajectory of sun in east-
west direction, increasing the economics of solar panels.
• Power supply: A regulated power supply is used to power
microcontroller, solar tracker and LCD module.
• Microcontroller: Forms the CPU of the system, controlling
solar tracker, timings of lighting panels and LCD module.
• Relay based voltage switching: A relay circuit used to
switch microcontroller’s low power signal to drive lighting
panels.
• LED based lighting panels: An efficient, low power
consuming lighting solution arranged in 3-phases to
increase efficient and effective street lighting.
• LCD module: Displays real time switching of lighting
panels and solar tracker’s sensor data.

• Sensors: A pair of LDR sensors track the real time position of
the sun in east-west direction.
• Analog-Digital converter: Converts analog sensor data into
digital equivalent for implementation by microcontroller.
• Microcontroller: It implements the solar tracking algorithm
to maximize the gain of the solar panels.
• Relay based motor driver: A relay circuit switches
microcontroller’s tracking signals , to drive the motor on
tracker.
• Motor: A permanent magnet D.C. reduction gear motor, to
keep the solar panels in track with position of the sun.
• Solar panels: It is a 36 crystalline silicon cells in series rated
at 17.1V, 300mA, and power rating of 5W.
• Battery: Lead acid battery capable of providing 12V, with
rating of 10.5V, 350mA.
• Microcontroller AT89S51: Low power, high performance
CMOS 8-bit microcontroller with 4KB of in-system program
memory and 128 bytes RAM.
• ADC0808: Data acquisition component, with 8-bit ,8-channel
multiplexed analog-digital converter based on successive
approximation conversion technique & compatible with
microprocessor logic.
• LCD module: A 16×2 alphanumeric LCD unit with 5×8 dots
display.
• Motor: A permanent magnet D.C. series, reduction gear
motor rated at 12V, 200mA, capable of producing high torque
of orders of 78.4 mNm stall torque and rated 24.5 mNm
torque.
• LDR sensors: A pair of 10KΩ light dependant resistors
configured in potential divider bias with 10KΩ potentiometer.
• Power supply: A 230V A.C. mains is stepped down to 12V
D.C. and regulated to 5V D.C. using LM78L05.

LED LIGHTS
•LED exceeds mercury vapor by 31 lm/W
•More Lux Per Watt -more than double that of a mercury vapor street light
•Longer lifetime
SOLAR TRACKER
•Solar trackers generate more electricity due to an increased direct exposure to solar rays.
•Single-axis solar trackers can typically lead to an increase in electricity generation of 20-35%
SOLAR ENERGY
•Practically inexhaustible source of energy
•Non-polluting
•Accessibility of solar power in remote location
•Long lasting solar cells and easy installation

COST
•When the power consumption of street lamps is 60 Watt, it needs 150 - 170 Watt solar panel and 2 units 80 Ah batteries. The cost is near USD 1, 000. If the power consumption is higher, such as 150 Watt, the cost will be a little amazing. However, as traditional HPS street lights, the power consumption is usually 60W, 80W, 150W, 250W or 400W. So, the cost is high in most of cases. Many countries can not accept the cost.
LOCATION
•Areas which remains mostly cloudy and foggy will produce electricity but at a reduced rate and may require more panels to generate enough electricity .
*Use of ZIGBEE for wireless
communication with the system.
*An entire street lighting system
is retrofitted with a power
conditioning unit, a dimming
mechanism, and supervisory
control and data acquisition
(SCADA) systems.
* Implementing digitally
addressable dimming system
based on CAN bus protocol.
*
*Dimming and/or telemanagement functions utilized at
dawn, dusk, during fullmoons, provide an additional
savings of 5-10% or more depending on other conditions.
*By implementing above proposed system, we can
increase power efficiency and quality of the lighting level
at considerably reduced cost.
*Conservatively, at a cost of 4 Rs/kWh, these savings
equal around 4,500 Cr or US$900 million annually and
4.5 million tons CO2. The value of the savings is likely
much higher.
