What Is The Definition Of Solar/Light Energy?

why do you keep asking questions about energy? can’t you look this stuff up for your self? obviously your not lazy because your posting these annoying questions one at a time instead of a block "define these" question.

How much will it cost to install a solar energy power to run a few appliances such as lights,tv,e-fans?

Also where I can inquire here in the Philippines (NCR) about the installation of Solar Power Energy?

I would not bother… You will not get your money back on the savings……….

electricty is not available at my form house, How i can generate with solar energy (4 lights, 1 fan, 1 tv)?

4 CFL bulbs at 14 watts each is 56 watts.
My stand up fan only uses 70 watts on high.
My large 36 inch TV only uses 88 watts at max.

Total 162 watts

Lets run them all at the same time for say 6 hours a day. So we need 972 watts per day.

If you get 4 hours of peak sun you would need 243 watts in solar panels and to allow for loses you should get 300 watts.

Now you need batteries to last a day or two. A 100 AH deep cycle battery holds 1200 watts in power and to keep it above 50% discharge you would need two.

The inverter just has to be able to handle the total power usage of 162 watts so a 300 watt inverter would do.

300 watts divided by 12 volts is 25 amps so you need a charge controller that can handle 25 amps

3 each 100 watt solar modules. About anywhere on the net.
1 each 300 watt inverter Walmart or auto parts house.
1 each 30 amp charge controller Xantrex C-35.
2 each trojan t-105 6 volt deep cycle batteries 225 AH.
A couple of breakers from lowes or home depot and you are in business.
