Sustainable Technologies
The CalypSol trimaran is a high-tech solar powered eco-friendly boat built to promote the use of renewable sources of energy and advocate a clean environment. On June 11, 2014, the CalypSol crew reached Baton Rouge, LA , thus completing 1’450 miles from Chicago,
This design departs from the inspiration of Ancient Andean technologies that for the last 5,000 years created not less than 60% of the food world eat now. They were based in natural forces and effects, product of milennia observation.
Project Concept
This design is used to make more energy efficient housing, or homes that are able to feed more natural energy into their personal energy grids than through the use of the public grid.
Basic Explanation
The energy is derived from a few separate sets of grids.
Black or dark colored in the winter and white, silver, or light colored in the summer, Color Shifting Energy Conservation Houses optimally absorb sunlight in winter and reflect it in the summer dependent upon the seasonal angle of the sun and intelligent use of color shifting paint.
Kyoto Juhkan Expressway (Kyoto) with porous asphalt (void ratio: 20%) was constructed using new concepts (Kyoto Specifications) in March 1989 in Japan. It has been kept maintenance free (no damage) for sixteen years in all sections (12.6 km). Fig. 1 shows the distribution of three dimensional cracks in Kyoto,
Electricity need is increasing in our daily life. Nowadays scarcity of
electricity has increased. The sources of producing electricity from renewable
means is the latest trend in our society. The generation of Electrical energy from
Heat energy is discussed.
Use of ocean currents to generate electricity is technically the best new form of power generation. Unlike wind and solar power, ocean currents can produce power 24 hours a day 365 days a year. There is also a tremendous ocean current capacity available.
The idea is that by means of renewable energy (solar wind power) cold deep sea water is pumped up to a thermo isolated storage holder at an increased height so that it provides a natural means of building pressure in the pipe lines.
Harvesting solar energy using optical frequency rectennas is a potential low-cost solution for high efficiency photovoltaics. Unlike conventional semiconductor solar cells, in which the solar energy efficiency is fundamentally limited to approximately 30%, an optical rectenna is not constrained by that limitation;
The Problem
There is a large unmet need to displace diesel power as a solution for remote communities and industries. Diesel fuel is expensive to deliver to these locations, and diesel generators, though inexpensive to install, are expensive to operate and maintain. As a result,
