A company Riversimple presented a city car which works on hydrogens. While there is only one copy of this machine. In the near time, guidance of the company plans to get financing for creation 10 prototypes and them subsequent tests.
A hydrogen car was developed by the companies Riversimple and Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies jointly with universities of Oxford and Krenfild.
A novelty is equipped by hydrogen fuel elements and operated which move an electromotor, energy for which is produced in the process of chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen.
Supply fuels counted on 384 kilometres. High speed equals 80 k/h, and acceleration from a zero to 48 kilometres per hour occupies 5,5 seconds.
Expected, that the first serial hydrogen car of company Riversimple will appear at a sale in 2012 years.
A company Infinite Power Solutions announced the line of miniature accumulators Thinergy Micro Energy Cells in ultra thin implementation.
Technology of Thinergy combines the features of ordinary batteries and supercondensers. Charging to 90% take 10 minutes, and a number of charging-discharging cycles is 10000. At an incomplete charging-discharging, number of cycles is increased to 100 thousand.
According to the prognosis of chairman of the National agency on questions providing of the effective use of energy resources of Mykola Pashkevycha, іn 2011 Ukraine will invest a 400 million euro year in alternative energy.
Pashkevych declared today about it, on November, 9, on opening of the specialized exhibition of Power efficiency- 2010.
Wind behaves to the most perspective alternative energy sources. At past Hamburg conference the European specialists discussed conceptions of Wind Generator of new generation.
Wind Systems play in Europe, including in Germany, an important role. The most perspective have “off-shore wind parks”. It is marine complexes of Wind Systems near banks, where strength of wind is more high, than on land. However, building of wind generator on water is very expensive. Therefore, it will cover a cost only in case that wind parks produces the enough body of energy.
Employees of NVO “Physics-Sun” developed and patented the method of receipt of hydrogen from water by the use of sun energy.
State patent department report, that a method is based on thermal decomposition of vaporous water, which heated in a cauldron by the concentrated sunbeams to the temperature 1000-1200 degrees after a scale Kelvin.
DTEK , which unites the power assets of Rinat Akhmetov, began mastering of new direction – Wind energy.
The Donbass fuel and energy company ( DTEK ) created the enterprise of Wind Power. It will be engaged in realization of projects in the field of Wind energy, was reported the director general of DTEK Maksym Timchenko.
Most in the USA sun energy power-station will be built in the desert of the state New Mexico, declared a company NRG Energy. Power-station will produce energy, sufficient for providing of necessities of 74 thousands of private houses (92 megawatts ).
A project excels previous analogues, the most from them produces a 70 megawatts of electric power.
