Solar Roadways 2. Contents Introduction Theory Structure Advantages Disadvantages References 3. Introduction The Solar Roadways consists of structurally engineered solar panels that we drive on. Each Solar Road Panel (roughly 12’ by 12’) interlinks with neighboring panels to form the Solar Roadways system. The Solar Roadway generates electrical power from the sun and becomes a nation’s decentralized‚ intelligent‚ self-healing power grid‚ replacing our current deteriorating power distribution

The Power of Solar Storms To Our Fragile Planet Natural disasters occur when least expected all over the world. Disasters affect countless lives and cost millions of dollars. Hurricanes‚ tornados‚ and tsunamis occur with such regularity throughout the world that society has developed warning systems and is prepared to rebound from these disasters as quickly as possible. One disaster that most people do not think about is solar storms. Research shows that solar storms have been documented since the

Solar Storm Informative Speech Topic: Solar Storm Organizational Pattern: Cause and Effect General Purpose: Speaking to Inform Specific Purpose: This speech is to inform the public‚ including my fellow students‚ and instructor on the dramatic effect of a Solar Storm on society. Thesis Statement: When the Solar Storm hits earth it will eliminate all electricity and communication. The most recent recorded history of a major Solar Storm was in 1859 when their were no electrical grids‚ satellites

Solar Absorbers and the Future of Electricity Solar Absorbers and the Future of Electricity By James Folta Electricity is what we use to power things at home or at school. You can probably look around right now and see an electrical outlet or two. Everything that we plug into one of these outlets uses electricity. But where does this electricity come from? Right now we have a few ways to make electricity. Some are better than others. There are some scientists who are trying to find

Solar Energy The Sun is a star and without it there would be no life on earth. This is why the Sun is called the ultimate source of energy. The Sun’s energy is produced by a process called nuclear fusion. Every second‚ the Sun emits vast amounts of energy‚ much of which is light‚ and this solar radiation can be converted into electricity. Plants and trees are pretty good at collecting this energy. With the help of green chlorophyll‚ they use light energy to make food – they’re our solar powered

New ’solar paint’ could generate electricity from the roofs and walls of EVERY home without the need for bulky panels * ’Nanocrystals’ used to generate power * Can be painted or printed onto walls or windows * So tiny you could fit 250‚000‚000‚000 on head of a pin * Thin enough to be painted or printed onto walls One day‚ a thin film of ’solar panel’ could be painted over windows and walls to turn every home into a giant hi-tech ’sun trap’. The hi-tech solution could make solar

The Solar System My project is about the Solar System. The Solar System is made up of all the planets that orbits the Sun. The Solar System consists of moon‚ comets‚ asteroids‚ minor planets‚ dust and gas. Everything in the Solar System orbits or revolves around the Sun. The Sun contains around 98% of all the material in the Solar System. The larger an object is the more gravity it has. The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. After the sun is Mercury‚ the innermost planet in the

Solar System About 4‚700 million years ago‚ the Solar System was just a spinning disc of dust and gas. The dust began to collect together and our Sun formed at the centre. Around Sun‚ lumps of rock joined up to form smaller bodies and‚ like the Sun‚ they heated up. But because they were smaller they soon cooled down and became planets. Sun accounts for 99.85 per cent of mass of the solar system. About 1.3 billion earths would fit inside the sun. The solar system consists of the Sun; the nine planets
