Tata’s new Electric Car is called Indica. This EV is scheduled to be launched in Norway in 2009 and India in 2010.
You can drive the car on the highway, the car is a four-seater, with enough room for luggage and the ability to go from 0 to 60 kilometers per hour (0 to 37 [...]
Company called Solyndra has invented circular photovoltaic panels. They are seems to be more efficient than traditional solar PV panels and they are easier and cheeper to install too.
We know that usually CIGS are not as efficient as photovoltaic systems based on silicon cells. But they are more and more [...]
MDI is going to sell their air powered cars in the US at the beginning 2010 as I wrote in one of my artisles in the past.
This time they came with slightly different concept. The urban city car of the future is called AirPod. What’s so weird about this car? [...]
Konarka’s advanced photovoltaic technology started with the work of the late Dr. Sukant Tripathy, an internationally known polymer materials scientist, provost at UMASS Lowell and founder of the Plastic Innovation Center and Dr. Alan Heeger, Konarka’s chief scientist, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2000. The ground-breaking discoveries from [...]
I bring in some pictures from Paris Motor Show. The Chevrolet Volt – Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle – is exposed there.
The Volt is an electric vehicle that recharges its lithium ion batteries from an AC outlet or an onboard gas engine. The production version looks very different from the concept car that was shown [...]
There is a lot of ECO gadgets around these days. One of them is this little solar power generator.
This device generates both: solar and wind energy, as it uses a collection of six photovoltaic panels, crafted as a vertical turbine. While the panels generate solar power, the moving blades generate wind energy.
One never [...]
The Renewable Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC for short) has passed and as well, it’s been renewed until 2016. Also, they increased the caps on how much you can claim for the credit.
$2,500-$7,500 tax credit for people who buy plug-in electric vehicles. (That should make General Motors (GM) happy as it prepares [...]
The Sunflower – pictured below – is a cd player and loudspeaker system that charges via sunlight. It’s a cool-looking way to have a renewably powered party on your patio.
Ricardo Baiáo is inventing some very cool concepts for products that utilize solar power and other alternate energy sources.
The Chevrolet Volt is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle to be produced by the Chevrolet division of General Motors and expected to be launched in November 2010 as a 2011 model.
Its price is estimated to be near $40,000,[4] which would give a net price of about $32,500 after the $7,500 US Federal tax credit.

A Highly-Efficient 3-Dimensional Nanotube Solar Cell for Visible and UV Light,” William Yuan invented a novel solar panel that enables light absorption from visible to ultraviolet light. He designed carbon nanotubes to overcome the barriers of electron movement, doubling the light-electricity conversion efficiency. William also developed a model for solar towers and a [...]
