Yuneec E430 is a first electric plane which will be produced in mass production environements. I’s a lovely aeroplain. Iwould love to have one like this…. No fuel to buy….. -:)

The technical specifications:

• The E430 has a wingspan of 45.2 ft (13.8 m) and uses a 54 hp (40 kw) brushless motor
• Top speed of 93 mph (150 km/h).
• No noise and vibration, low fuel and maintenance cost.

RiverSimple is designing small, urban, two-seater car, which will be powered by hydrogen fuel cells, with a network hybrid design and made from carbon composites, it has been designed to achieve over 300 mp (which is very efficient).

Riversimple will invite the community to help develop its vehicles, by licensing its designs to the independent open source foundation 40 Fires.

The car has 4 electric motors – each motor is in one wheel !

So there are :

• hydrogen fuel cells.
• four electric motors, one on each wheel
• regeneration of electricity by these motors when the car is braking – known as regenerative braking
• body made of lightweight composites.

Suntrica – a company which sees the mobile market explodes and proposes to us, a solar charger for our mobile gadgets, like iPhones, Portable computers and game devices….  There are many of those solar charging devices them on the market now.

Sunrica is making solar-charging devices with a flexible design that’s durable enough to withstand harsh environment. It looks like very solid devices which can help you charging when you’re on the road.

There are several models provided.  The One below is called SolarBadgePro

There are also SolarBadge and SolarStrap.

SolarStrapTM  is compatible with most of mobile phones, mp3 players, GPS devices, digital cameras, and other devices utilizing 5 V charging voltage. SolarStrapTM  can fully charge a typical mobile phone, while the charging power corresponds to a wall
charger.

There is quite a few of solar panel makers on the today. Not all of them are the most efficient, most valuable or less expensive.

SunPower makes the best solar panels in the world and Kaco makes the best inverters in the world and Direct Power and Water makes the best mounting systems in the world. There was a  research conducted by ENF among directors of photovoltaic installation companies in 45 different countries.

So as a factory which are making Solar Panels there are:

1.) SunPower (USA)
2.) Schott Solar (Germany)
3.) SolarWorld (Germany)

Best Product Quality: Sanyo (Japan)

Best Value for Money: Suntech (China)

Concerning Solar inverters:

1.) Kaco (Germany)
2.) OutBack (USA)
3.) Mastervolt (USA)

Best Product Quality: OutBack (USA)

Best Value for Money: Kaco (Germany)

Kyocera’s new EOS folding concept phone has  a cool flexible OLED screen, changing its form factor from a clamshell into something like wallet or clutch-purse. There is a soft, semi-rigid polymer skin surrounds a flexible OLED display. Not like solar charged cellphones from LG or Samsung, this phone does not need a battery…. -:)

The device feeds off of our physical interaction with it, translating kinetic energy into an electric charge via an array of nano-scale piezoelectric generators. The more we interact with Eos, the more energy it creates – without using batteries.

German company MAN had implanted an ultracapacitor in one of their busses. The ultracapacitor allows the bus to start without turning on the engine. Once the bus is moving, the diesel engine starts running. They are few of them actually beeing tested at the Paris’s public transport system RATP.

The hybrid bus reduces use about 20 to 25 percent less fuel than normal busses you can see out there right now and which are not using this wonderfull technology. If the test are going well, it could be a way for the ultracapacitors finally to find their way onto our roads.

What are solar panel inverters? What are they for? Where to find them?

Solar Panel inverters are used mostly to change direct current to alternating current via an electrical switching process. You can think of inverters used with solar panels as electronically synthesized alternators. You have direct current comming from your solar panes and to power your house you’ll need alternate current. (AC). You also need 110 Volts (or 220 in Europe).

With the Enphase Micro-Inverter system, if one of your solar panels is shaded, or damaged, you do not affect the output of the rest of your solar array. All panels perform to their greatest capacity, because Each Solar Module has its own Enphase Inventer.
