Recharge electrics cars while driving

Duomobile wrote: A new way to recharge electric cars on highways, while moving. With a special hitch and autopilot system, it can follow any car having a standard hitch ball. Duomobile will free electric cars from waiting at stand points. Duomobile will improve safety : driver fatigue causes one in five fatal crashes on highways. Sharing drive save lives. The owner will benefit the relaxing comfort of an autopilot car. A co-operative and environmentally friendly transport system, saving energy from the aerodynamic drag by linking vehicles (even non electric). More electric cars will reach towns with a full battery, reducing. Towns pollution... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

WIND my ROOF

WIND my ROOF wrote: To meet the new environmental goals, we came-up with the first horizontal roof-mounted wind turbines, positioned on the edge of flat roofs. These wind turbines take the form of a streamlined turbine of 2m long and 1. 5m high, for an annual output of 1 mwh. Thanks to a reduced weight and space compared to existing solutions, we bring a product more discreet and more powerful, adapted to an urban exploitation. Noise and visual disturbances have been removed by optimization of the whole design. The positioning on the edge makes this wind turbine fully compatible and complementary to a solar installation, and allows real estate developers to increase up to 25% the production of electricity on their roofs...

IRNERO

IRNERO wrote: Solar panels need regular cleaning to work properly and remain high efficiency. Irnero developed smart self-cleaning system for solar panels; it detects contamination of solar panel and cleans without human interaction. It increases solar panels efficiency up to 40%. It can be used in different climate conditions, and can be installed in places where it's hard-to-reach. The technology is patented. Smart self-cleaning system for solar panels makes using solar panels easier and more comfortable, it is cheaper than regular service of cleaning teams. By rising efficiency of solar panels, smart self-cleaning system rises saving of co2. Let's get more clean energy, with clean solar panels... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad
