NEC Introduces Solar-Powered Battery Package for Renewable-Power Capability Monitors

NEC Display Solutions of America announced a solar-powered system for use with all its monitors. In conjunction with Carmanah® Technologies Corporation, one of the fastest growing renewable and energy-efficient technology manufacturers in the world, NEC is the first display company to offer a solar-powered system for all of its monitors.

The solar-powered system is designed to produce approximately 293 kilowatt hours of electricity per year, or 800 watts per day *. By running a display monitor off solar power, the need for standard electricity, which is produced by means of non-renewable energy sources, will be significantly reduced and, in some cases, nearly eliminated. Large companies could realize substantial energy savings from the solar-powered battery packages and could potentially save thousands of dollars each year in electricity costs, while also reducing harmful pollutants, which are produced when using non-renewable generated electricity.

Saved solar energy can last for days of normal usage when running a typical LCD monitor. Multiple monitors can be run simultaneously; however, the run time of a battery would vary depending on usage and the number of devices drawing on the power.

The full solar-power package includes the following:
• 2 x EV-120 - Evergreen 120 Watt Solar Panel
• 3 x EX-1000 - Extreme 12V, Deep Cycle Solar Battery - 100 AHr
• 1 x GPR-25 - Go Power! 25 Amp Digital Charge Controller
• 1 x GP-SW150-12 - Go Power! Pure Sine Wave 150 Watt Inverter 12 Volt
• 1 x GPSC-12-10A - Go Power! 10 Amp Smart Battery Charger
• 1 x Battery/Solar Wire & Misc.
