The Pennsylvania Energy Development Authority has awarded a grant to Axion Power International, a developer of lead-carbon PbC batteries. This grant will be utilized to develop and deploy an Axion PowerCube battery energy storage system with the usage of Axion Power International’s proprietary PbC battery technology. This 500 kilowatt PowerCube will be constructed and installed at the New Castle battery manufacturing facility. The PowerCube battery energy storage system will be designed to improve a future solar-powered electric vehicle charging station, a potential wind-powered energy system and a Smart Grid distribution system.
Northern Power Systems has selected Analog Devices’ SHARC digital signal processors for use in the company’s Northwind 100 community-scale wind turbines. The Northwind 100 wind turbine utilizes an advanced ‘digital drivetrain’ and the wind turbines are capable of delivering 100 kW of rated power for community-scale wind applications such as municipalities, schools, universities, farms and businesses. By incorporating SHARC digital signal processors, data converters and other ADI components in the Northwind 100’s Permanent Magnet Direct Drive (PMDD) design, the need for a gearbox is eliminated.
Researchers of Boston College for the very first time have observed “hot electron” effect in a solar cell and the elusive charges have been successfully harvested with the usage of ultra-thin solar cells. This discovery can be utilized for the improvement of solar power efficiency.
The H200 SL-L ladder guided service lift has a sturdy design and can accommodate a maximum of two people and equipment. The service lift from Hailo LLC contains a shutter door that is placed on the side and through which one can enter and leave the lift.
3M’S Optical Systems Division today announced that it has launched a consumer awareness campaign in an effort to raise awareness of household TV energy consumption and what to consider when purchasing an energy efficient TV.
TV power consumption is expected to outpace the energy used to power the average refrigerator by 2010, with this figure doubling by 2031. Switching to an energy efficient TV can help to reduce power bills. In fact, Energy Star® estimates that if all televisions sold in the United States met the current Energy Star® requirements, Americans would save $2.5 billion annually in energy costs, while reducing annual greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to the emissions of about 3 million cars.
Energy storage for small devices forms by far the largest mobile energy storage market today, being much larger and faster growing than the market for heavy energy storage such as automotive and enjoying greater innovation for the future, including transparent and printed batteries
Toyota announced today that it will place ten Prius plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHV) with Xcel Energy's SmartGridCity project in Boulder, Colorado
Federal Heath Sign Company has installed a state-of-the-art LED video display at the Isleta Casino & Resort, located in Albuquerque, NM
Understanding precisely how fluid boils in tiny "microchannels" has led to formulas and models that will help engineers design systems to cool high-power electronics in electric and hybrid cars, aircraft, computers and other devices
