New approach to Charging Laptop Using Solar Energy

Abstract

Study investigates multiple energy generation methods, considering time, cost, and regional usability, to ascertain their viability for providing energy in resource-constrained settings. The primary objective is to identify and evaluate viable energy resources, specifically focusing on charging laptop batteries, to support access to technology in Third World countries. A predesigned solar-powered generation system was implemented as a proof of concept. Additionally, other energy resources were analysed, though not physically demonstrated. The system was modelled and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink with the Simscape system block set. The computer simulation demonstrated the crucial role of simulation in the design, analysis, and evaluation of the solar energy system and its components.
