Second SU serious work
-
Hi all
Ok guys this is a 105 kWp one axis solar tracker photovoltaic power plant.
It is located on about 1 acre (0,4 hectares) of flat land.
I hope you like it... I haven't used any rendering programs cause i still don't know how to use them...
(Can you sggest me a simple rendering program i can start working with? thanks)
HOORAY RENEWABLE ENERGY!!
Bye bye - Ciao

exceptionally good texturing. and I like it how you put some plants arround the "feet" of the panels.
extraordinary images for sole SketchUp output!
-
Thanks Plot-Paris.
Btw 90+ people viewing and only 1 comment...
Bye bye - Ciao

It would be interesting to put a person in there somewhere to give it a sense of scale. How big are those panels?
Good images tho
-
Oh and if your after an easy to use rendering programme, you can't get much simpler than Podium which runs inside SU itself. http://www.suplugins.com

Hi Maverick83
You've done a first class work on yours pictures. Do you really need to render them
they 're pretty perfect.I know how frustrating it is to get no back posts.

Ma è in Italia???
Ben fatto, secondo me è meglio così che non "renderizzato".

Hi kevsterman
First of all, thanks for the compliments and for the rendering program tip.
I've put a person in the middle of the scene so you can understand what a badass photovoltaic power plant it is.
Each photovoltaic module is 166,3 X 99,8 cm (65,5 X 39 in), so it's huge.
Bye bye - Ciao

Hi Malaise
Thanks for the compliments and for your psychological supportBye bye - Ciao

Hi Julius
Yes, it will be built (at least i strongly hope our client will accept our project) in Italy.
I'm glad you like it.
Ah yes, another thing: if you wanna a photovoltaic power plant please contact meBye bye - Ciao

yeah, i want one on my balcony
seriously i think there should be more photovoltaic powerplants here in italy. -
I agree with plot-paris, very good choice of textures.
It is a very nice looking model you have created and quite different to what is normally shown here.Nice work

Hi Dylan
Thanks
You're gonna see a lot of photovoltaic power plants from now on in here
What rendering program would you suggest me to start with? Maybe Podium?Bye bye - Ciao

i use kerkythea. but i think to start rendering also podium and indigo are good.
the thing i like about kerkythea is that is really powerful and it's free. podium is good, but i think the highest resolution for the free version is 500x500.
-
Thanks Julius
Is Kerkythea more complex than Podium?btw 500x500...

i think so, but i'm not sure since i've used podium only a few times. podium is a plugin for SU, while Kerkythea is a separate application.

Thanks for adding the person, Maverick. That really is going to be a beefy powerplant. I wish we could have plants like that over here in the UK. When I see all the huge expanses of wasted rooftops out there it just saddens me that we don't utilise them and help our environment.
I've only ever used Podium as a renderer so I can't comment on the others like Kerkythea but I've seen its output and they have been impressive. Altho the free version of Podium does have a limit to the resolution size, it isn't an expensive programme to buy and it is incredibly easy to use and learn. In my opinion it is well worth the money.
