Seoul plans to install more than 100 electric car charging stations

July 30th, 2010

Seoul City Government, Head of Air Quality Management Lee In-Keun, said: “We are equipped with an advanced operating system for the city and other advanced electric vehicle charging facilities match.”

To promote the use of this environmentally-friendly cars Seoul is committed to ensuring there is adequate public parking electric car parking space to accommodate at least two electric cars, and 25 in the Seoul district office in each district to set a Zhishao charging station.

Recognizing the scarcity of electric vehicle charging facilities to implement the environmentally friendly car is the biggest obstacle, the municipal government on May 28 with three based in Seoul signed an agreement with large retailers Studio 14 battery Studio 1435 battery .

Based on the agreement, Lotte Mart (Lotte Mart) is planning its two branches in Seoul to set electric car charging stations. In addition, E-Mart has set up a charging station that can simultaneously charge two electric cars for free, and in its holy water (Seongsu) branch of electric car to draw the two special parking area.

E-Mart plans during the year in Seoul, set of 6 stores electric vehicle charging facilities and in the near future to provide this service to the city to expand the number of outlets to 25.

Apple rechargeables smarter than average Aas

July 28th, 2010

Apple on Tuesday introduced a rechargeable battery charger that it says is the sleekest and greenest way to power your Mac peripherals.

The Apple Battery Charger has a power-management system that cuts the power when AA batteries are fully charged to nearly eliminate the vampire draw. The charger draws 30 milliwatts once batteries are full, compared with 315 milliwatts for other nickel-metal hydride rechargeables, Apple said.

The charger kit costs $29 and includes six Apple batteries, which Apple says will last hundreds of charges and up to 10 years. The charger can work in other countries and with other rechargeable batteries, too.

Powering peripherals, such as the mouse or newly introduced Magic Trackpad, directly from a PC’s energy supply could very well be more energy-efficient.

But clearly, using rechargeable batteries is far more environmentally sound and cost-efficient than buying fresh AA batteries every few months and tossing out the depleted ones. On top of it, the Apple Battery Charger is built for long use, which is the best way to design consumer goods Apple A1280 battery  Apple A1281 battery .

If you look at an iPad or iPod, a “AA” battery simply won’t fit into the case. But there are options available to put on an external battery pack – including a solar powered one I got recently. Not the best I’ll admit – but its kept on the car dashboard as an emergency power source for the cell phone & iPod Touch Apple A1245 battery .

Leo motors develops improved EV battery management technology

July 27th, 2010

Leo Motors, Inc. (Pink Sheets:LEOM) announced that it has developed a more innovative Battery Management System (BMS), to solve the safety and quick charging problems often experienced with Electric Vehicles (EVs).

Leo’s new BMS can charge at a current of up to 4C (4 times the rated capacity of the battery per hour). Existing BMS could only charge at a current of 0.5 C (half of the rated capacity of a battery per hour), For example, a 30 kW DELL battery power pack cannot charge more than 15kW per hour using existing BMS because the BMS can manage only half of the electric power per hour.  Using Leo’s new BMS, the power pack can be fully charged in about 15 minutes under a quick charging mode.

Another improvement of Leo’s new BMS is that the size of the BMS became 70% smaller than existing BMS. Leo intends to develop its technology further, making major parts of the BMS into silicon chip to further minimize the size and reduce the heat emitting from inside of the BMS. Leo also plans to develop its BMS technology to charge at a current of up to 12 C, which would allow a full charge in about 5 minutes .

Leo’s new BMS will be tested by battery manufacturers and EV manufacturers seeking a product dell Inspiron 1100 battery , dell Inspiron 1150 battery  or marketing opportunity. Dr. Robert Kang, CEO, stated, “Our BMS technology is the key to our Company’s continuing development, as it is the most crucial part in EV battery power packs, and is one of the most expensive parts in the entire vehicle.”

Japan’s PV market expansion support policies

July 23rd, 2010

In order to support renewable energy use and carbon dioxide emissions, and Industry of Japan through its proposed implementation of domestic renewable energy all the acquisition system. All acquisition system is not only intended to gradually expand the acquisition of objects, from solar power to expand to other renewable energy sources the electricity, but also will benefit the company. For solar power systems of all acquisitions to be implemented from 2011, other renewable energy power generation of all acquisitions to be in the period from 2015 to 2020 implementation.

Strong advocate in the global low carbon economy, the moment, as a major energy consumer, Japan, in the development of low-carbon economy, building low-carbon society has been significantly accelerated the pace. The proposed renewable energy power in their countries to implement all of the acquisition system, Toshiba battery  is one of the important performance. The first field from the solar power system for all the acquisitions, we can also see the Japanese emphasis on the industry, which of course, the Japanese PV industry with a strong foundation, and the current good momentum of development are closely related.

Japan’s solar power generation in 1997 reached a total accumulation of 91MW, for the first time surpass the U.S. as the world’s first, since this trend has continued. As of the end of 2006 the cumulative installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in Japan 1760MW, including the installation of photovoltaic systems reached 360,000, the cumulative installed capacity of 1254MW, ranked first in the world and become a leader in photovoltaic industry. Japanese manufacturer Sharp Solar production of solar cells from 2000 to 2006, has been ranked first in the world. However, since 2006, the government abolished subsidies, the Japanese PV industry development trend is checked, the world’s No. 1 position has gradually been Germany, Spain and other countries to replace PA3465U-1BRS battery.

2020 based on the amount of solar cells increased with the amount actually used in 2005 to 10 times to 40 times in 2030, and in 3 to 5 years after the solar system, about half the price to the current goal in January 2009 from the Japanese government to resume the subsidy system for domestic purposes, 70,000 yen subsidy for every kilowatt. It is for this policy to promote, in 2009 the Japanese PV market return growth path, the installation capacity is almost twice that in 2008, reached 477MW.

Into the PV market in Japan in 2010 the good development trend continues. 1 to 3 months of this year in Japan the world’s total shipping capacity of solar cells 525.787MW, compared with growth of 115.2 percent over the same period in 2009. Among them, solar domestic shipments in Japan reach 212.418MW. Also worth noting is 1 March 2010, with Japan’s domestic shipments of solar cells 169.98MW, PA3384U-1BRS battery an annual growth of 3.07 times, accounting for Japan’s domestic shipments of 8 percent.

The entire Japanese government intended to introduce the system not only acquired gradually expand the acquisition of objects, 由 solar power expanded to other renewable energy sources the electricity, and Yejiang benefit business. This also indicates that the next Japanese domestic solar PV market in steady growth, industry and other fields of potential PV market will also be excavated in order to stimulate the Japanese PV market to further expand the overall capacity PA3534U-1BRS battery .

The process has been completed a small simulation experiment is under way to expand testing.

Liu Jian, China’s annual production of straw is only about 11 million tons, all of them using only the equivalent of less than 400 million tons of carbon, can not meet the huge demand for social and economic development. For this reason, his discussion group also try to gather sunlight directly into carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, ThinkPad T43 batteryThinkPad T43P battery  so not only energy saving, is also expected from the “low carbon” to “zero carbon.”

National New Century 100 million project to train selected persons, Wuhan University, School of Physics, Professor Zhao Xingzhong the discussion group is dedicated to solar cell research, some technologies are close to the world advanced level.

New solar energy as a renewable energy, is considered the most important new 21st century energy sources. To the semiconductor material silicon solar cell, represented the first to flourish. But the production process complicated and costly. In recent years, scientists have been in countries committed to developing a number of low-cost, highly efficient new solar cells.
