Development of space solar power

Japanese animated series “Mobile Suit Gundam”, the depletion of fossil fuels force the shift of human space-based solar energy development, a new focus of global conflict. In the science fiction world, the background of this era set in 2307. However, the real world, Japanese scientists have now set out to develop rail-related hardware, power generation facilities, as a new, renewable clean energy, is expected to be completed within 20 years.

From space using solar panels, “download” the concept of energy has long existed, it seems impractical because high cost. In Japan, the global energy crisis and environmental concerns for the viability of the plan does not seem to be taken seriously again, last year, Institute of Laser Technology in Osaka produced up to 180 watts of solar power laser energy. In February this year, scientists tested the ground in Hokkaido Electric Power Transmission System, will form a microwave energy transmitted to Earth.

Study of laser and microwave together constitute an audacious plan, Japan’s space agency Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency subordinate (JAXA), presided over the space solar power system (SSPS). By 2030, the agency plans to launch a solar generator to the geostationary orbit, the generator will transfer one billion watts of solar energy the Earth, as a large nuclear power plant’s generating capacity. Solar energy will be delivered in the form of microwave or laser, can be converted into commercial power grid, or stored hydrogen.

Japan’s major research institutions have about 180 scientists involved in this project. JAXA Research Center of the High Representative Hiroaki Suzuki said: “We conducted this study is based on the common-sense reasons – will soon run out of fossil fuels, increasing global warming, these problems be solved.” JAXA said the space solar power has obvious advantages : in space, solar radiation is on the ground 5 to 10 times more efficient collection; 24-hour collection, and is not climate; clean, do not produce pollution and waste, safety and reliability. The energy intensity to reach the ground may reach 5 kW per square meter – about mid-latitudes in summer sunny noon to 5 times. Although scientists say that number will not hurt the human body, but to receive the energy area will be isolated and placed in the sea.

JAXA researchers are testing in progress, hard fiber laser was 800 watts at about 500 meters from the station launched, through 1064 nm wavelength filter only the reflection of light directly at the experimental solar panels. (The reason to use this frequency because it can easily just through the Earth’s atmosphere, loss of less than 10%.) Key task now is to find which can effectively convert sunlight to laser materials, the preferred material as containing neodymium and chromium YAG ceramic materials.

Basic research is only part of the project, testing of microwave and laser systems require a large space equipment: film capacitor filters, solar panels and the effective distance of thousands of kilometers of microwave transmission equipment, which total about one million tons. Terrestrial microwave receiving antenna will also have the 2 km long.

The total project cost may be as much as several billion dollars, but Suzuki and his colleagues say they will not total costs: “Our basic Yanjiu completed, we do not know whether it is feasible. Our goal is to produce energy and hydrogen to stabilize the economy estimated price of 6.5 cents per kilowatt-hour. “This is related to the current cost of conventional electricity rather, in the future will have higher economic value.

In accordance with the present level of technology, large-scale equipment to the space can only be transmitted through the national space agency coordination to complete. Suzuki said that although the potential militarization of space, the trend for countries more inclined to independent research and development of space technology, but “if the JAXA, NASA and the European Space Agency can work together, it would be the best.” Although this all sounds more Prelude like science fiction.

Progress in global car battery standardization

In Electric Vehicle Conference "EVS24", the number of organizations have on the plug-in hybrids (PHEV) with the charging system, as well as lithium-ion rechargeable battery delivered a speech on the standardization. PHEV, the International Electrotechnical Standards Committee (IEC), International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the American Association of Automotive Engineers (Society of Automotive Engineers, SAE) were introduced by their respective standardization efforts, these standardized specifications for the connection of PHEV charging facilities and communications technologies and systems. Standardization activities of these groups, respectively, by the German companies (ISO), French companies (IEC) and the American Enterprise (SAE)-led implementation.

Standardization of PHEV

IEC and ISO for the realization of PHEV charging facilities connected with the standardization activities carried out, is aimed at harmonizing the views of the two organizations "IEC / ISO JWG V2G (joint working group vehicle to grid)" organized and implemented. Well-known energy company RWE AG, Germany's Ingo Diefenbach progress of the work of the organization delivered a speech.

IEC / ISO JWG V2G has two working groups (WG). One is related with the physical specifications of WG1. Specific work includes, discussion connectors, cables, both protection and power switching and base. In the more contentious aspects of the connector, IEC envisages only be used to connect charging devices and cars, and made the biggest three-phase AC voltage of 500V, maximum current and seven terminals 63A (3 for the power supply, one for the Grounding, 2 for the signals, one for other uses) and so on.

The other is related with the communication technology WG2. The discussions included a more secure method of communication and communication services. Focused on the content, in the circumstances at the same time clearly identified for its specifications, and to ensure connectivity between the communication protocol. IEC / ISO JWG V2G will be summarized in 09 years, the results of the above issues and to develop programs intended to vote in mid-2010, the end of 2010 to develop standards. Although the IEC and ISO views seem more unified, but in fact the current "still have considerable differences" (Ingo Diefenbach).

On the other hand, research institutions, the U.S. Argonne National Laboratory (Argonne National Laboratory) of the Theodore Bohn progress on the standardization of SAE delivered a speech. PHEV standardization, SAE group generally consists of two specifications. PHEV are used to connect the specifications and infrastructure group, and the development of PHEV and EV for the test method specification group. Vehicles and infrastructure to achieve the connection "V2G", including connectors, charging method, communication protocols, such as use cases and charging device specifications. Example contains the relevant provisions of the connector "J1772", including the largest one-way 115V AC voltage, maximum current of 15A and 5 terminals (2 for the single-phase AC use, one for the grounding, one for the signals, one for the other purposes). This IEC / ISO JWG V2G differ materially from those discussed in, "I hope the two sides compromise" (Theodore Bohn). Will be discussed in future to improve the three-phase AC voltage to 600V and 600A current and so on.

In addition, SAE is also envisaged through the wire communication (PLC) device is connected vehicles and charging facilities, and to consider future vehicle information uploaded to the Web network. "Because in the future between the vehicle and the intelligent instrument linkage will become very important."

Standardization of vehicle batteries

On the standardization of the battery, the Erasmus University College Brussels, Belgium Peter van den bossche progress on the current delivered a speech. At present, the standardization of automotive batteries, including lead-acid battery standards IEC60254, and the overall battery standards IEC61982. The latter also includes the electric power per km for the standard car battery 100Wh the IEC61982-3.

Based on these criteria, the group has started discussing 08 hybrid lithium-ion rechargeable battery standards. Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries, ISO TC22 SC21 is developing with the vehicle's rechargeable battery system, standards, and IEC TC21 is under way to recharge the battery cells and modules focus on the development of relevant standards. Plan "will continue with the IEC, ISO and other groups to discuss again" (Peter van den bossche). In addition, also intend to discuss the future of lithium-ion capacitor standards.

Power battery industry trend growth in Guangdong

In recent years, China's first economic province - Guangdong Province has been promoting the optimization and upgrading of industrial structure adjustment and vigorously develop high-tech industries, advanced manufacturing, encouraging independent innovation, and take the high road of high added value. This guide in 2008, proved to be quite forward-looking. Last year, the international financial turmoil, economic growth in Guangdong, there was greater decline. However, from Guangdong, the first 10 months of 2008 the statistical data, the significant downturn in industrial added value and even negative growth, mainly concentrated in two or three labor-intensive, weak capacity of independent innovation of industry, while maintaining high-tech manufacturing sector is still higher growth rate of 16.6%.

Some closed their doors, even more people would give them see and find opportunities. In the crisis, both to China's largest toy factories, Smart Union toy factory Zhangmutou represented by a large number of low-end processing plant have fallen, but also high-tech enterprise special power contrarian easy expansion, the acquisition of Fortune 500 companies held by Schneider easy special Power System Technology Co., Ltd. 60% of the options, and other cases, more ZTE, Huawei and other companies for many years a large number of high-tech growth.

Battery power is a new high-tech energy and energy-saving products category, data from the relevant departments of Guangdong's power battery industry in 2008 is still growing steadily. All this is thanks to the enterprise optimization and upgrading of industrial structure adjustment. In the current situation, the Guangdong power battery industry, how to go further and take the "crisis" in the "machine", expand markets, upgrade technology, optimize the structure?

Guangdong to enter the international market is still a huge advantage

Power battery industry in Guangdong, a large number of companies have a strong comprehensive strength, their technology, brand, marketing, production and other areas of great strength, in a crisis but could usher in development opportunities, lose ground in the international market. Easy special acquisition of Guangdong 500 companies around the world held by the easy special Schneider Power System Technology Co., Ltd. 60% of the shares. In 2008, the easy special exporting not only not declined, but the first three quarters exports grew 60%. According to Guangdong Zhicheng Champion Group Vice President Bai Yueliang, due to the group active and innovative ideas over the years, persist in doing high-tech products, product sales are still maintained rapid growth.

Although exports, but Guangdong is still the undisputed largest province of China's exports. Power Battery exports is accounted for half of the country. By traders in Guangdong, agents, import and export companies or other forms of direct trade, power battery business export tens of billions of products annually. In addition, the Guangzhou international buyers purchase has been the preferred destination for Chinese products, developed a large number of international buyers to visit the exhibition in Guangzhou to buy the product purchasing habits. Organized by the Guangdong high-profile exhibitions, trade fairs, bidding, etc., power battery companies still have access to find a lot of business opportunities.

In addition, Guangdong due to its unique geographical advantages, will also speed up the realization of China's export market diversification of the bridgehead. In the analysts view, shrinking demand for traditional export markets in Europe and America on the occasion, the power battery business must be scattered in different eggs in the basket, and actively explore new international markets, export market diversification, in order to defuse the rising demand for single market risk bound is the only way. With ASEAN, India, Africa, Latin America and other emerging market trade, compared to other domestic provinces and cities in Guangdong, with transportation, logistics, information and finance a full range of comprehensive comparative advantage. September 2007, Guangdong and ASEAN Secretariat signed a Memorandum of Understanding, to the outside world has brought new markets in Guangdong To speed up the strong signal.

Battle of solar cells A

Near the northwest coast of the American continent where the Atlantic Ocean, a group belonging to obtain the Canaria Islands, Spain, here is the resort, renowned in Europe. Meanwhile there is a small island called Tenie Liffey Island, where there is a huge "solar energy park."

Solar Park by the Sumitomo Corporation invested heavily in building up 8.5 billion yen, the size of the extent of the equivalent of two nests (China National Stadium). In such a vast land area, set a large number of solar panels a year to produce 9 megawatts of electricity when the (MWh). According to Sumitomo said that the electricity for 3,500 households in the island in full power.

Across Europe in recent years has built a huge scale solar park, and where the implementation of the "fixed price of the acquisition system" to promote the popularization of clean and renewable energy. The contents of this system, the use of solar power generated by the power companies have long used a higher fixed price acquisition. Present in more than twenty European countries have adopted this system, Korea and other countries are also going to introduce this system.

In 2000 the first import of the new system in Germany. 2004, Germany increased the purchase price, the solar power system began in Germany is widely popular. To 2005, Germany's power generation capacity over the Japanese, the highest in the world, the international community's largest solar power. To 2006, Spain enrich the system, the import volume surged, and its import volume began one year than the Japanese. Embassy of Spain, said: "We are in 2007 of 500 megawatts of solar generating capacity, the which previously we plan to reach 400 megawatts in 2010, the now completed three years ahead of plan."

Could be so rapid development, has its deep historical background. From the German perspective, the purchase price for the power company 2-3 times the price of ordinary electricity, and the prices can not change 20 years. While Spain is the acquisition of power in 25 years, if inflation occurred during the purchase price will be raised even higher. Now in Germany or Spain, use the system in about 10 years to be able to recover their investment, and after all power sales revenue can be a small fortune in profits.

See benefits later, many families, businesses started in their own roofs, open spaces to set up solar cell, could not find investments of capital around the world have begun to flow here, some fund companies around to look for projects in the areas of solar cells around the world have begun the construction of large-scale solar power generation facilities, Sumitomo Corporation is one built.

In other words, solar power in Europe is a very high return on investments, Goldman Sachs commentator Watanabe Chong said: "The involvement of investment funds, bringing the solar cells, the rapid expansion of demand." The securities the related survey, the result is more than 07 world demand increased by 1.5 times the previous year, when expanded to 3,000 MW, of which Germany, Spain and other European countries accounted for 0.6, just two years has increased the demand for the world 1 times.

The rapid expansion of emerging forces overseas manufacturers

Europe is due to import a fixed price of the acquisition system so that the demand for solar cells has seen a dramatic expansion of the change from the manufacturer on the power chart, you can clearly see this point. The rapid expansion of the forces which have the German company Q-CELLs, China's Suntech Power Company and the United States, the first solar energy companies. Japan's Sharp, Kyocera, Sanyo and other solar cell companies are in full retreat, a time controlled more than 5 percent of the world market, in just two years time, leaving only a little more than 2 percent.

Sharp in the production ranks first in the world than on the Q-CELLs, from enterprises to establish up to now only 9 years old, the company needs to expand in Europe by the east wind, made a leap of development, in 2004 its production capacity of 75 MWh But by 2007 had reached 389 megawatts, the sales, then converted into yuan, has already exceeded 10 billion yuan mark. While China's Suntech, the first U.S. solar energy, and compared with Japanese companies, belong to junior, from inception to the present is still less than 10 years.

Solar cells should be said that training by the Japanese in Japan, a technology flowering. Oil crisis, the Japanese original MITI formulated the "Sunshine", the Government and the public collaborate with each other to the system, the solar cell technology research, and in 1994 began to ordinary families recommended the solar cell, for importing these kinds of facilities, family, country, pay a grant of building the world's first national domestic market. It is also because of this background, over a period of time, Japan has been ranked first in the world solar cells, known solar cell is Japan's "special skill."

But why Japanese firms in such a short period of time to defeat the emerging foreign companies out? A Japanese company cadres told reporters: "a short time the international market environment has changed dramatically, we have relatively slow response. In particular, we have been dominated by the world's first location, a very long time to other businesses on the eyes. "

When demand for solar cells in Europe there is an increase, the German company Q-CELLs and China's Suntech see this as a golden opportunity, from the stock market to raise a lot of money, and actively carry out the investment in equipment. Cheng, president of Kyocera Kawamura told reporters: "emerging enterprises overseas moves very fast!" Is the crystallization of main stream in the market, solar cells, require a large amount of silicon, silicon on the market began to demand , while the Japanese enterprises in order to increase production beyond the production lines moving, started businesses to large silicon contribution, or with the establishment of a long-term trade contracts, in a large number of silicon supply fodder first.

French lion roar B

As for the topic shelves and storage space, has pronounced the 308 deserves praise. Not only are there plenty of it - it's all thought out for everyday use. An example: Who is charging while driving, mobile phone or mobile navigation has plugged that in most other cars do not really know what to do with the use of the cigarette lighter. Most of the thing then rolls at every turn through the center shelf. Unlike in the 308th There are right on the cigarette lighter finding the right basin, which otherwise takes sometimes even the money for the parking meter - problem solved.

308 Who goes, who does not need a degree for it: Everything is clear and easy to use. All switches and buttons are easily accessible and intuitive - to use just the switch of the heating, one must stretch a bit. The fashionable circular instruments are easily read. The steering wheel is adjustable in height and length and is well and comfortably in the hand. The materials seem high quality and have a pleasant feel, the workmanship is impeccable.

Under the hood, worked in our test car, a new 1.6-liter VTi petrol engine. VTi stands for variable valve lift and Timing Injection. Behind the concept lies a complicated technology, can be adjusted continuously with the beginning and end of the valve opening times at the intake and outlet and which is to improve by variable valve lift on the intake side of the thermodynamic efficiency. The optimization provides more power and lower fuel consumption. Peugeot says. pcga-bp71 battery

From its 1.6-liter engine pulls the Sun min at 6000 rpm. 88 kW/120 and at 4250 rpm a maximum torque of 140 Nm. That's enough for a top speed of 197 km / h and acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 10.8 seconds - all at an official fuel consumption of 6.7 liters per 100 km. In our test, the real consumption is only less than a liter higher. These figures show because in fact an evolution in the 1.6-liter engine of the three-zero-X: The predecessor brought his simple technique to eleven horsepower less, was almost the same acceleration seven km / h below the speed of the new and swallowed yet officially 7.4 liters of gasoline.

The VTi proved to be a nifty runner, cultured and smooth, with enough reserve power for passing on the highway and the rapid progress on the highway. The noise level inside is - based on vehicle class - relatively low. In particular, the engine holds back - which is at a speed of sound, this is especially the wind. pcga-bp2v battery

The suspension absorbs all of the 308 large bumps of the road away casually. The chassis itself is designed rather tightly - which matches the sporty appearance. The 308 remains countermeasures on the straight and consistently without on course. In curves, it understeer a little, helps a pinch early electronics. Pleasant are the strong restoring forces of the steering, which make themselves felt at the corner exit supportive. Otherwise, the control displays clear, accurate and not too smooth. A little more feel for the road we would have wished, however.

The 1.6-liter VTi is available as Tendance version from a base price of € 17 800. He is more than 1000 € with a comparable motor and significantly worse-equipped base about Gulf and on a line with a corresponding Toyota Auris. However, the Peugeot is also the equipment list is long enough to still get rid of a few thousand euros more. lenovo thinkpad x60s battery

Xenon light costs about € 1360 as a package, parking sensors are estimated at € 500, a navigation system is not to have less than 2,150 €. Who wants to go without golf-golf-class boredom, with a Peugeot 308 is well served.
