“This engine is tuned for maximum performance. Peak power is upwards of 450 ....." - Bruce Nelson, Owner and President, Engine Factory.
We won’t be drag racing but this is a reminder to please come and hear “Maximum Power Point Tracking” by Len Anderson of Signals In Motion, Bayside, NY.
Please see the below Abstract for more info!
We will meet on Thursday, February 1st at 7PM. The meeting will be held at LIU-Post Campus, Lorber Hall, 720 Northern Boulevard, Brookville, NY 11548.

Pre-registration is suggested. It does help us with planning when we know how many folks are coming. Therefore, if you can, please let us know via Meet-Up at this URL: https://www.meetup.com/LICN-Long-Island-Consultants-Network/events/246980398/
Light refreshments will be served at 6:30 PM. Just come in, have a seat, have a chat, have a nosh and we’ll have our lecture. As always, it’s going to be a busy night.
Lecture
“Maximum Power Point Tracking” by Len Anderson of Signals In Motion, Bayside, NY
Notes
ABSTRACT
The lecture will present insights and techniques to be used for photovoltaics systems converting light energy into electricity using semiconducting materials. Discussions will cover how solar cells are combined into panels in order to increase the power supplied along with a look at how conversion efficiency of a solar cell is very low when compared to other sources.
Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is presented as a method used to maximize the power conversion under different “load” conditions. This presentation explains how the MPPT method can be implemented.
