Innovations | |
Top innovations which will have significant consequences for our future cross all our different technical magazines. |
Photovoltaic | |
Different view points about photovoltaic from our different technical magazines as wide outstretched information about electric power from light. |
Photovoltaic - Electric power direct from light | |||
Even a far north situated industrial nation like Germany could produce a big part of the needed energy by the roofs of the houses. Photovoltaic has much potential. |
Thin layer photovoltaic | |||
Less material and less energy usage at the production, good outcome at cloudy sky and the possibility for flexible PVs are the advantages of thin film technology. |
Hannover industrial fair 2006 |
Flat escalator from parking lot south to the Hannover fair | |||
Spacial compressed tele photo over the several hundred meter lont flat escalator from the parking lot to the entrance of the Hannover fair. |
Hall roofs with photovoltaic | |||
10 years ago, I would have been enthusiatic about the photovoltaic modules on the roofs of the fair halls. |
CHP fuel cell instead of combustion engine | |||
CHP had been only economically for large consumers. This fuel cell for Diesel or gas with 1 kW electricity and 4,5 kW heat will make the use in single family houses possible. |
Hot high temperature fuel cell | |||
The fair sensation at stationary electric power production. 49% efficiency at electric power and for many industrial appliciacations suitable 400 degree used air temperature. |
Gas - biogas - fuel cell | |||
Many different sorts of gas can be used in the hot high temperature fuel cell to be converted into electric power and 400 degree hot used air. The used air can be used for industrial applications. |
Enercon E82 wind power plant | |||
The biggest attraction in hall 13 was the Enercon 82 wind power plant Look at the details of the wind energy technic from close distance. |
Flywheel storage | |||
For off grid systems with wind energy, the flywheel storage equilibrates the continual fluctuations of the wind energy. 5 kWh storage capacity and 200kW peak power for 90 seconds. |
Flywheel to store electric power | |||
Simple iron. Because the equilibration of wind energy fluctuations is an stationary task, expensive super materials do not pay off. |
Flexible CIS Photovoltaic | |||
Silicon shortage is no problem, photovoltaic can be produced with many better features out of other materials. Here a flexible CIS modul. |
Sun watch - landmark of the Indian hall | |||
The exhibition area from India on the Hnnoer industry fair 2006 starts with a big sun watch. |
Photovoltaic from India | |||
This photovoltaic modul from Central Electronics is complete made in India. Starting with the silicon are all parts ''made in India'' |
Cheap Diesel engine | |||
Even the starter battery is in India a luxury. Normal to start with a starting handle. An engine optimized for the rural areas of India. |
Valve controll by a pestle | |||
At an low RPM stationary engine are also pestles good enough for the valve controll. The engine looks like, that a good mechanican can repair everything. |
Cheap vegetable oil micro CHP cogen | |||
Because of the cheap Indian Standmotor, the complete CHP can be offered at an far lower price than usual in Germany. |
