Summary: | The Arctic region presents numerous challenges for human presence, ranging from constructing on thawing permafrost to ensuring adequate food supplies. However, one of the most pressing challenges revolves around energy sources, encompassing both heat and electricity supply. Arctic settlements are typically considered off-grid systems, necessitating the development of systems of locally generated energy that are both reliable and sustainable. The goal of GLOB is to measure solar irradiation on as many as possible array planes to verify recorded values with modeled. Due to technical and costs limitations a sphere with 26 faces called rhombicuboctahedron has been pointed as most suitable for this project. |
