what are good benefits to install solar panels on to walkway and bike lanes?
Homework Answers
Some of the possible good benefits are :
1)Installing solar panels at lanes and walkways can provide us a non polluting renewable source of energy that can be used to supply lighting at night time .
2) These panels can also help to power traffic or road signals at day time , so complete off grid based system can be made .
3) The installation of panels can also help to eliminate underground or overhead wiring involved in supplying power to led or tube lights installed for ligting because each solar panel works on DC power and so can be installed as individual modules
4)The solar panels can also be used to store excess energy during day time to charge batteries that can be used somewhere else
5) Electric vehicle charging points can be made by combining power of several Solar panels .

A university spent $2 million to install solar panels atop a parking garage. These panels will have a capacity of 800 kilowatts (kW) and have a life expectancy of 20 years. Suppose that the discount rate is 10%, that electricity can be purchased at $0.30 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), and that the marginal cost of electricity production using the solar panels is zero. Hint: It may be easier to think of the present value of operating the solar panels for 1...

A university spent $1.9 million to install solar panels atop a parking garage. These panels will have a capacity of 300 kilowatts (kW) and have a life expectancy of 20 years. Suppose that the discount rate is 20%, that electricity can be purchased at $0.10 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), and that the marginal cost of electricity production using the solar panels is zero. Hint: It may be easier to think of the present value of operating the solar panels for 1...

Should you install solar panels on your home? The cost of the panels is $20,000 today and will save $1,500 per year on average for 25 years. In addition, assume you are eligible for a 30% tax credit on installation cost (assume received in one year). What is the NPV, IRR and payback of the solar panels for 25 years (useful life). Hint: Treat the savings as a cash inflow. Cost Today (T=0) $20,000 No loan Annual Savings (T=1-25) $1,500...

A university spent $1.8 million to install solar panels atop a parking garage. These panels will have a capacity of 500kw, have a life expectancy of 20 years and suppose the discount rate is 10%. a. If electricity can be purchased for costs of $0.10 per kwh, how many hours per year will the solar panels have to operate to make this project break even? b. If efficient systems operate for 2400 hours per year, would the project break even?...

You plan to "go green" and install solar panels on your home in 36 months. The solar company has a payment plan whereby you will pay for the panels in 120 monthly payments (installments) starting in month 37 Each monthly installment will be for $200 per month. How much would you have to invest each month (the same amount in each month), starting in one month, for 35 months , to exactly pay for the solar panels ,if your investments...
