Abstract

Off-grid photovoltaic electrical power systems are typically equipped with battery storage in order to provide power at night and during overcast days. One such application is at the Nevada Test Site ~NTS! Where continuous air monitoring systems are installed at several remote sites on which radioactive fallout was deposited by past nuclear tests. The air sampling is continuously conducted to assess the concentrations of radioactivity in airborne particles to assure that the air is in compliance with federal regulations.
