Solar Energy In Transportation
\nSolar Energy and Its Effects on Transportation
\n\n\n\nAlternative energy sources, like solar energy, are gaining more and more reputation and thus have attracted the attention of many industries. The transportation sector is not an exception so what can we expect in the future? Find out in this article.
\n\n\n\nAre you also interested in harnessing solar energy for your home or electric car? Then it’s a good idea to talk to multiple solar panel installers in your area to see what your options are.
\n\n\n\nOur team at GreenMatch can connect you with up to 3 qualified installers from our network, saving you the hassle of finding reliable installers yourself. You’ll receive a quote from each of the installers so that you can easily compare their prices and choose the best deal.
\n\n\n\nClick the button below to get your free non-binding quotes now.
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow Can Solar Energy Be Used in Transportation?
\n\n\n\nSolar Buses
\n\n\n\nThe world’s first solar-powered bus was introduced in 2013, in Adelaide, Australia. Adelaide’s city council was keen on reducing the city’s carbon emissions as more than 30% of it came from transportation, both public and private.
\n\n\n![\"Green](\"https://cdn.greenmatch.co.uk/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto/2/2022/10/awesomebus.png\")
The Tindo (that’s the name of the buses) buses are quite unique as they are 100% electric, meaning they are generating zero emission, unlike gas-powered and hybrid fleets. However, the bus is not powering itself, it doesn’t have any solar panels installed on it, but it has a battery that is being charged at the Adelaide central bus station before setting out on routes around town.
\n\n\n\nOn an average weekday, with average traffic conditions, the bus can cover about 200km before its battery is drained and needs a recharge, however the regenerative brake system can extend battery life slightly.
\n\n\n\nMore countries are likely to utilise the technology, but in what other ways can the transportation networks benefit by using solar energy?
\n\n\n\nMany ideas have been developed, but one that stands out and gains a lot of attention is the solar-powered bus stops.
\n\n\n\nThe technology is quite simple in fact. Solar panels are installed on top of bus stops in order to gather energy during the daytime and then use the generated power to light up promotional panels and bus information boards during evenings/nights.
\n\n\n\nFor some the technology might seem too simple and not quite necessary, when in fact it demonstrates a natural eco-friendly way to address some of the basic needs that citizens have.
\n\n\n\nClear Channel UK already conducted such an experiment with their advertising panels on Waterloo Bridge bus stop.
\n\n\n\nThe solar panels sitting on top of the station generate energy that is being measured and if needed lights are slightly dimmed, but never go off. However, with modern technology, much of the energy generated might come in excess and therefore be transferred to the national grid. We can only imagine how much clean energy can be generated if each bus stop has installations like this one.
\n\n\n\nOther Transportation Methods Relying on Solar Energy?
\n\n\n\nThere are some exciting projects taking place. For instance, if you are a fan of boats, you definitely have to get familiar with PlanetSolar, the world’s largest solar boat. However, if you prefer aviation, then SolarImpulse would definitely interest you.
\n\n\n\nPlanetSolar
\n\n\n\nThe boat uses absolutely zero litres of gasoline and causes zero CO² emission. It solely relies on its 29,124 photovoltaic cells. All the energy captured from those cells allow the boat to keep floating in full speed even in complete darkness (up to 72 hours!).
\n\n\n\nThe boat can accommodate up to 60 people and serve all their needs only by using pure solar energy. Its maximum speed is around 26km/h, with the average being around 10km/h. The project has been a definite success with many outstanding expeditions in the past 3 years. There is definitely more to come from PlanetSolar in the future and we are more than excited to see what the boat is really capable of.
\n\n\n\nSolarImpulse
\n\n\n\nWell, it is the only airplane that is able to fly day and night just by using solar energy. It is by far the most ambitious solar aircraft project so far. It’s current aim is to carry out the first round-the-world solar flight. It’s ambitions are heavily backed with 12 years of feasibility studies, concept and design developments.
\n\n\n\nThe project enjoys the solid assist of 50 engineers, 80 technological partners and more than 100 advisors and suppliers. The final aircraft, SolarImpluse 2 has to undertake a few more small improvements before heading for the sky and completing the first solely solar around-the-world flight in 2015.
\n\n\n\nExcited? Already Interested in Going Solar Yourself?
\n\n\n\nBoth projects plus all the possibilities for clean eco-friendly public and personal transportation might have excited you and you might have already started considering going solar. If that’s the case then you’d have to consider many things before starting your solar adventure.
\n\n\n\nSo in attempt to save you some research time, let’s quickly give you some useful information. Before heading on directly to the installation of solar panels on your home for instance, you have to make sure your home itself is suitable for the installation (having decent insulation is usually enough).
\n\n\n\nMarket comparison is essential as we are talking about a sizeable initial investment. The process can be a bit tricky, therefore you might need professional assistance. Do not worry, because you are in luck as there are companies ready to guide in your solar journey.
\n\n\n\nClick the button below and we’ll provide you with up to 3 quotes from qualified solar panel installers in your area. This way, you can feel confident that you’re getting the most value for your money. Our service is completely free and non-binding.
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is needed to confirm your enquiry and to connect you with the right installers.

点击下面的按钮让你免费的非约束性报价。
太阳能可以用于交通如何?
太阳能汽车
介绍了世界上第一个太阳能汽车在2013年,在澳大利亚阿德莱德。阿德莱德的市议会是热衷于减少城市的碳排放超过30%来自交通、公共和私有的。
Tindo(公共汽车的名称)电动公共汽车是非常独特的,因为他们是100%,这意味着它们是生成零排放,与天然气和混合舰队。然而,公共汽车不是驱动本身,它没有任何www188bet.com上安装它,但它有一个电池充电在阿德莱德的中央汽车站出发前在城里路线。
平均工作日,平均流量条件下,公共汽车可以覆盖约200公里在电池耗尽之前,需要充电,然而再生制动系统可以稍微延长电池寿命。
更多的国家可能会利用这一技术,但在其他方面可以通过使用太阳能交通网络的好处吗?
许多想法已经开发出来,但脱颖而出,获得很多关注太阳能公交车站。
技术实际上非常简单。188bet亚洲体育平台www188bet.com太阳能电池板安装在公交车站为了白天收集能量,然后使用生成的力量照亮促销面板和公交信息板在晚上/晚上。
对于某些技术可能看起来太简单了,不是很有必要,而事实上它演示了一个自然环保的方式来解决一些公民的基本需求。
清晰频道英国已经与他们的广告做了这样一个实验板在滑铁卢桥汽车站。
空间站的188bet亚洲体育平台www188bet.com太阳能电池板之上产生能量,如果需要测量和灯都微微黯淡,但从未离开。然而,与现代技术,产生的大部分能量可能会超过因此被转移到国家电网。我们只能想象清洁能源可以生成多少钱如果每个车站都有这样的设施。
其他运输方法依靠太阳能吗?
有一些激动人心的项目。举例来说,如果你是一个喜欢船,你绝对必须熟悉PlanetSolar,世界上最大的太阳能船。然而,如果你喜欢航空,然后SolarImpulse肯定会让你感兴趣。
PlanetSolar
船上使用绝对零升汽油和导致零²发射。它仅仅依赖于29124年光伏细胞。所有的能量捕获从这些细胞允许船漂浮在全速即使在完全黑暗(72小时)。
这艘船能容纳60人,满足他们所有的需求只有通过使用纯太阳能。其最高时速约26公里/小时,平均大约10公里/小时。项目已经与许多杰出的探险一个明确的成功在过去三年。肯定是有更多的来自PlanetSolar在未来,我们很兴奋地看到多船真正的能力。
SolarImpulse
好吧,这是唯一的飞机能飞日夜只是通过使用太阳能。这是迄今为止最雄心勃勃的太阳能飞机项目到目前为止。它当前的目标是实施第一个环球太阳能飞行。野心是大力支持与12年的可行性研究、概念和设计的发展。
50项目享受固体协助工程师,80年的技术合作伙伴和100多名顾问和供应商。最后飞机,SolarImpluse 2进行更多的小的改进,然后再飞往天空,完成2015年第一只太阳能环球飞行。
兴奋?已经将太阳能自己感兴趣?
两个项目加清洁环保的公共和私人交通的可能性可能会兴奋,你可能已经开始考虑太阳能。如果是这样的话,那么你必须考虑许多事情开始前太阳能冒险。
所以在试图节省你一些研究的时间,让我们快速给你一些有用的信息。前直接在家里安装太阳能电池板为例,你必须确保你的家本身就是适合安装(有良好的绝缘通常是足够的)。www188bet.com188bet亚洲体育平台
市场比较是必须的,因为我们讨论的是一个相当大的初始投资。这个过程可能有点棘手,因此你可能需要专业的帮助。不要担心,因为你是幸运的,因为有公司准备指南在太阳的旅程。
点击下面的按钮,我们将为您提供3引用合格的太阳能电池板安装在你的区域。通过这种方式,您可以相信你得到的最有价值的钱。我们的服务是完全免费的,不具约束力。
我们努力为客户提供合适的产品和供应商联系。你想成为GreenMatch的一部分吗?
