Our school has successfully applied to become one of the first participants in the "Powering Education: Solar Energy Support Program for Schools and Non-Governmental Welfare Organizations" (including the "Feed-in Tariff" program). We have installed a solar photovoltaic power system on the rooftop of the school, contributing to the development of renewable energy and educating students about the importance of environmental conservation and energy efficiency.

In the first phase of the program, the school installed 36 high-efficiency solar panels on the rooftop, forming the pattern of our school's initials, FKIS. In addition, in August 2021, we installed an additional 28 solar photovoltaic panels. Currently, our school has a total of 64 solar photovoltaic panels. Students can monitor the operation of the solar power system through an online system and learn about relevant scientific knowledge.

The basic unit of a photovoltaic system is the photovoltaic module composed of solar cells. The function of a photovoltaic system is to convert solar energy into direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) electricity to meet the power demand of the load. A photovoltaic system consists of a photovoltaic array and other system components, including charge controllers or inverters, wiring and switchgear, and lightning protection devices.

Solar cells can convert the light energy from sunlight into electrical energy through the "photovoltaic effect." When sunlight shines on the solar cells, electrons are "excited" and become "free electrons," flowing in an external circuit to form an electric current.

A single solar cell can only generate a small amount of electricity (1-2 watts). To increase the output power, solar cells are combined to form photovoltaic modules, typically ranging from 250 to 320 watts. Photovoltaic modules are often connected in series to form a "photovoltaic string," and multiple "photovoltaic strings" are connected in parallel to form a "photovoltaic array."

The electricity generated by the solar photovoltaic system is in the form of direct current (DC). It is converted to alternating current (AC) through an inverter for practical use.
