 The webpage “What are solar light panels and how do they work” from The Economic Times (2019) informs the readers the functions, features, and application of solar light panels in our daily lives. Among its functions, solar light panel are able to convert light energy into electrical or stored energy through the use of photovoltaic modules (PV) and the system can be either connected or not connected to the main power grid. In terms of the features, the solar light panel system comprises of “PV modules, electrical connections, mounting hardware, power conditioning equipment and batteries for storing the generated electricity.” It is tough, with the effectiveness only dropping one-two percent yearly and they also do not produce greenhouse gasses that may harm the environment. Besides that, the PV cells comes in different shapes and sizes. When they are placed together, they shape into PV modules which can form PV arrays of different power output and sizes depending on users needs and the amount of sunlight received. Among its applications, solar light panels can be applied in homes as well as powering traffic signs, street lights, water pumps and communication satellites. It can also be used in different gadgets such as flashlights, torches, wrist watches and calculators. All in all, there are many advantages as well as disadvantages for different kinds of solar systems. Regardless of which system we use, we should definitely tap into the power of solar light panels as the resources of solar energy are infinite. With fossil fuels running out and climate change being a global problem, the government should subsidise and encourage installation solar panels in households due to their abilities in energy generation, cost reduction as well as being eco-friendly.

Dear Prof Brad and fellow classmates, I am Eldric, a first-year undergraduate studying in Singapore Institute of Technology, majoring in mechanical engineering. I am a driven and bright individual . I have always been willing and prepared to learn about new things to improve myself for the future. Previously, I earned a diploma in aerospace technology with minor in business management from Ngee Ann Polytechnic in 2020. Since young, I have always been fascinated with planes. From looking at planes taking off from the runway to having an internship in Singapore International airlines engineering company, I have picked up a substantial amount of knowledge in the aviation industry. Enrolling into mechanical engineering means that I would want to be exposed to different engineering sectors as well as to broaden my horizon into the engineering world. One of my communication strengths would be being a good listener and having empathy for others. During my time in national service, I was a se
