Compass is the durable, reloadable, electronic fare card that works everywhere on transit in Metro Vancouver. Our phased roll-out of Compass is in full swing. Once complete, the easy-to-use card will replace all our current passes and tickets. Compass is the durable, reloadable, electronic fare card that works everywhere on transit in Metro Vancouver. TransLink's Compass Card program has been delayed once again and there is no date set for the roll-out of the automated fare card program for Metro Vancouver transit services. The $200 million system is supposed to stop cheaters and make riding transit easier, but testing shows the card readers are too slow and inaccurate. The fare gates and card scanners have already been installed and about 85,000 people, including transit employees, disabled transit users and low-income seniors, are using cards to test the system. Testing shows the new system has more than an eight per cent error rate. (CBC) But TransLink spokesperson Doug Kelsey says testing shows the cards have more than an eight per cent error rate. "We have quite an inconsistency around the speed. Some are fast and some are slow," says Kelsey. "We need a very small error rate on a high-volume business, and that's why it's not ready for our customers, but we're very optimistic Cubic is working on the solve right now." A system by the same company, Cubic, used in Chicago has led to two class action lawsuits for overcharging. Similar problems have been reported with…

mastery on the assignment in Module 1. Module 1 content was readings from the IRIS website. The content I read related to classroom behavior problems that an educator would encounter and strategies that could be used. After reading the IRIS module I was able to complete the assignment for module 1 with ease. The assignment questions were well written that I was able to complete with the material I had just read from IRIS module. 2. Reflect and discuss how the content in Module 2 prepared you…

What is foldable solar panel and what are its uses? Description: The self contained foldable solar panel is the photovoltaic cell or converter used to convert solar energy into electrical energy. They are budget friendly, convenient to use and offer a continuous supply of electricity in out areas. Solar panel is used to convert the solar energy into electrical energy so that it may be used to power the home, the appliances or electrical stuffs used. It saves money, electricity bills and helps…

Solar Energy The sun is the most abundant energy source available and used on Earth, hands down. The problem is, much of the energy from the sun that is used on Earth is used by primary producers, not by us, and what they do use is an incredibly small compared to the 89,300 TW retained on Earth at any instant. What we use is smaller still (22). The first step in harnessing the awesome potential our very own star is understanding just how to do that. Think of the inside of a solar cell, the…

Shocking to me, Luminalt’s website had a lot of customer reviews, every page displayed a comment from a satisfied customer. At this point I was tired of seeing customer reviews. There were a plethora of articles in the ‘news and events’ section. This is the only section that advertises what Luminalt has done for the community and other community-building related events. With over 700 solar systems installed, Luminalt have installed systems for any requirement, from nonprofits, to resturants,…

other irradiance, G, is I_l (G)=(G/G_0 ) I_l (G_0) 2 Voc Voc, the open circuit voltage, is the voltage measured with an open circuit. It is measured with the module in full sunlight using a voltmeter attached to the positive and negative leads of the module. On the I-V curve, this is the point where the curve crosses 0 amps. This is the maximum voltage that the module can produce on a sunny day…

Solyndra, A U.S. Solar Panel Manufacturer Solyndra was the first manufacturer to receive a guaranteed loan from the government under the Energy Policy Act of 2005, and was endorsed as a model manufacturer for the clean energy economy. In this essay we will look at a brief history of Solyndra, their unethical behavior, ethical framework, and the laws that pertain to this company. It is always an unfortunate situation when a large company, such as Solyndra, is viewed as becoming very successful…

Nobody on earth would deny free stuff and if so only a fool would. Costly bills on the table has to be the ugliest thing you have ever laid eyes on. The use of solar energy has given society an opportunity to turn their fat heavy bills into a much slimmer, thinner, and lighter bill. Electricians install solar equipment around the world to help people produce their own energy for free. Remember that you are the dumbest person on earth if you don’t like free stuff. Switching to solar energy is the…

algorithm has improved tracking efficiency and better dynamic performance under varying solar irradiance and temperature. As the derivative of the power with respect to voltage dies out at MPP, hence the steady state oscillations would be vanished. The INC algorithm generally have fixed iteration step size. This step size can be determined by accuracy and tracking speed requirement. The INC MPPT with fixed step size has tradeoff between the dynamics and steady state oscillations. …

Running a typical hot water heaters will cost over four hundred dollars a year. Solar hot water heaters consist of a solar module on a rooftop with the most sunlight (Springer). In that module are tubes that collect the solar energy of the sun to heat up the cold water. The now hot water travels to an insulated holding tank that can hold in heat and keep out the cold. Another solar hot water heater can have a booster that runs off of electricity that warms the water before traveling to the roof…
