Abstract
A renewable energy powered thermal processing system is formed from a renewable energy source operably connected to an inverter via a charge controller. In one embodiment, a solar renewable energy source is operably connected to the inverter via a solar charge controller. The inverter is connected to a renewable energy storage device and further conditions the current for the thermal processing power supply, which then delivers energy to a thermal processing unit. A supplemental renewable energy source, such as wind, may further be operably connected to the inverter via a supplemental charge controller. As such, the thermal processing unit can be powered solely by renewable energy directly or stored renewable energy within the renewable energy storage device to provide a standalone, grid-independent renewable energy powered thermal processing system. Optionally, a grid tie may further selectively connect the system to an external power grid as a backup source of energy.
