2010-Jun-17 - Sharp produce solar cells with STMicroelectronics joint venture

According to reports, STMicroelectronics, Sharp and Enel Group, a subsidiary of Enel Green Power announced that it would form a joint venture in Italy to produce thin-film solar Panasonic CGR-S003 cells.

Sharp plans to extend the clean energy business, and reduce production costs. Sharp and the Italian utility company Enel in 2008 announced its intention to produce thin-film solar cells,Nikon EN-EL9 with European manufacturers , but it did not specify which company.

Sharp said in a statement, in addition to bank loans, the joint venture of the three investors will investe to the solar Sony NP-FH100cells project of up to 70 million euros. Three investors will each hold one-third of the joint venture interests.

The joint venture plans to begin early in 2011 STMicroelectronics plant in Sicily, solar Casio NP-20 cells, an initial annual capacity is 160 megawatts, and then gradually increase to 480 MW.Sharp and Enel Green Power will set up another joint venture, using the above joint venture to produce solar Canon NB-5L panels to generate electricity. Sharp said that before the end of 2016, its joint venture with Enel Green Power's total capacity will exceed 500 MW power plant.

2010-Jun-17 - Game GB electric car plug-in and battery-type

National Institute of Standards and other new energy vehicles will be introduced in 2010, these national standards affects hundreds of domestic electric car manufacturers eye. Car prices are hoping to compete for the national standard established right to speak(so it can help them to choose the different standards for electric vehicles.Plug-in charging mode and Fujifilm NP-50 Battery type )

At present, there are two principal interest groups, led by two different standards for electric vehicles in game. they are Electric plug electric car business standards and models with the "change Panasonic CGR-S003 battery" type of business model dispute.

At the end of 2009, Zhejiang Condit also China National Offshore Oil, China Putian, and other energy giants reached an agreement to jointly set up a "Chinese electric car industry Promotion Union." The alliance praises "replace the Nikon EN-EL9 battery" type of electric car models. Production of these electric vehicles on behalf of enterprises are mainly Nissan, Zhejiang ZOTYE automobile.

"Battery type", the name suggests, customers need to rent a the battery Casio NP-20 pack after buying a car . When the vehicle battery will soon run out , the customer drove the car to the charging station to replace the other one battery, Canon NB-5L and close the actual power usage.And the owner need only bear the cost of vehicles without batteries, the purchase price is lower than the Sony NP-FH100 battery contains,and also more convenient to use.

However, the State introduced the commercialization of electric vehicle technology(Plug-in charging mode and Fujifilm NP-30 Battery type ) and standards, once to choose one ,the other mode of business will suffer. Game's outcome, the policy will not be both.

2010-Jun-9 - Wireless power Juice of the session (B)

• To exposure alternating electromagnetic fields are possible

Headwind for this inspiron 6400 battery technique comes from Achim Enders, director of the Institute for Electromagnetic Compatibility of Technical University (TU) Braunschweig, Germany. Enders looks beyond the technical difficulties, particularly the problem that can not be met with such a device, the limits to protect against the adverse effects of electromagnetic alternating fields. "Of course one should never say never, but the inductive coupling over large distances is preparing huge problems when it comes to protecting people," says Enders in "Bild der Wissenschaft".

The question of a possible have a negative impact on the people employed, the manufacturers of Apple Battery and ASUS Battery , which are also interested in the wireless transmission of energy. The rail manufacturer Bombardier for example, tested on its company site in Bautzen, a tram, requiring no overhead lines and their energy instead transferred by induction from between the rails applies electrical lines. Thus the appearance of historic city centers would no longer be marred by unsightly overhead wires. But even here, passengers and pedestrians have in front of a potentially harmful effects of electromagnetic fields are protected

• Solution for new market of electric cars

This also applies for electric cars, which pushes the issue of wireless shop by induction as much interest. The vehicles could easily be parked on induction loops, the contactless recharge their batteries with energy. A change of the aspire 3000 battery would then be as superfluous as the awkward fiddling with thick cables. Here, too, standardization is an important goal of the manufacturers: Sun developed the Association of Electrical Engineers) Information Technology (VDE currently a directive requiring all vehicles even later can be provided at all loading stations with energy. For a jumble of individual systems would be fatal in this nascent market.
