Solar powered plane flies through the night

An experimental solar-powered aircraft launched on Wednesday has landed safely in Switzerland after successfully flying through the night. The feat is a step toward the makers’ aim of circling the globe using the power of the Sun to fuel the plane. The aircraft used super-efficient solar cells and batteries to stay in the air after the Sun’s rays had faded. The plane touched down at an airfield about 30 miles (50 km) from the Swiss capital Bern at 0900 (0700 GMT). The four-engine aircraft was steered by Andre Borschberg, a former fighter jet pilot from Switzerland. The plane has 12000 solar cells arranged on its wingspan which collected enough energy to power the plane for the flight.

Free Power From The Sun. Solar EV Charging

Any Hydrogen technology managed by Corporate oil will only be a means to entrap people with hydrogen in the same manner as gasoline. For now solar and solar charging an EV is something that is practical today. On the grid it costs you an equivalent of 80 cents per gallon of gasoline. Batteries are better but some of the best were suppressed at the time the EV1 came out. An electric car is 35% - 97% cleaner than a comparable gas car, including the pollution generated by the electric power plant. The 35% number applies to states using a lot of “dirty” power, such as coal-fired plants. The 97% number applies to states like California that use a lot of “clean” power, including hydro, nuclear, wind, and solar. Also, there is ongoing research to make flywheel energy storage systems that can replace conventional chemical batteries for mobile applications, such as for electric vehicles. Proposed flywheel systems would eliminate many of the disadvantages of existing battery power systems

COME RIDE WITH ME IN A Electric Car w/In-Wheel SOLAR PV

Devonshire Wellsford has redesigned the way solar cells are used and harness the sun in innovative ways; whereas, the traditional solar rigs involved motorized frames that follow & track the sun’s movement thru the day, (requring additional energy & maintenance to work properly), “DW” employs a technique involving integrating a PV circular cell grouping on a convex dome placed on spinning objects at high RPM’s and allowing power generation to take place with energy production simultaneously. Photovoltaic cells reach their maximum potential in this manner. The pioneers in solar science at Devonshire Wellsford, Corp., have come up with another solar power breakthru. You and me and Vanna, need to spin this wheel folks! Wheel make a fortune! Solar cells are brimming and spinning with infinite possibilities! Hello sun fans, here’s the new twist!! …….. Use this solar spin concept to power boats, cars, trucks, planes, tools, and just about anything with power needs! (while cooling down the temp. of your PV cells and adding efficiencies) This motor is directly affixed to the solar cell. We feel all hybrids and eco cars could use this added-power source in a new “cool” wheel from the sun! see: devonshirewellsford.com (pp) At “DW” we change your ways of thinking!

Solar Power Panels - How to Build Homemade Solar Panels & Produce 80% of Your Electricity!

www.SolarEnergyGuide.net - Solar Power Panels - How to Build Homemade Solar Panels & Produce 80% of Your Electricity!Building your own solar power panels is an excellent way to save money on your electricity bill and protect the environment at the same time. Contrary to common perception, assembling a solar panel is very easy to do and doesn’t require any special technical skills. Practically anyone can put these solar panels together. With this system you will be able to take advantage of the readily available, free and inexhaustible energy of the sun. Make sure you choose the correct location to place the solar cells, so that they can capture the maximum amount of sunlight. You can use the roof, the garden or the backyard. The cells can collect and store energy even in cloudy days. You will need some basic materials such as plywood, copper wire, salt, sandpaper and metal scissors, which are very affordable and can be purchased at your local hardware store. By having your own residential solar power * You will be able to slash your electricity bills by more than 80% and save a lot of money in the long run. * You will pay less on taxes for using environmentally-friendly energy. * You can produce more energy than you consume and make money by selling it to the electric company. * You can help the environment by reducing your carbon footprint. It costs less than 0 to assemble and install your own solar power system, whereas a ready made one can cost up to 00.This is
