3. Technological developments in solar-powered vehicles are soaring. There’re solar carports charging electric cars, solar-powered boats, rickshaws and my personal favorite the Solar Impulse. This airplane has already made it across Europe without a drop of fuel, and is making its way across the United States this spring before attempting to fly around the entire globe on solar.
Anyone have other ideas based on solar??
Well, Monsanto and Dupont & petrochemical products aren’t so great – in hindsight
The shipping container is a great idea for domestic use also. I know building contractors have their offices in these.
Keith obviously they are not chargin a phone at night. This is why the image are shown charging in the day time. Also if you home has a solar array on top with a battery back up; your house will remain powered in the event of a power failure. In a smart grid community a power out will have a limited effect on these houses because they are sharing power with one another.
Very nice news. I’m tired of crime, let’s report some more “progress for people”
Add a battery pack and they could charge at night.
Yes another good Idea but in general most solar plants shut down in a power failure!!
Now that’s a good idea for solar
I’m sorry but you won’t solar charge anything over night by your bedside!!
