Mobility & Energy Futures Series: transport consumes a fifth of global energy and has a near-exclusive reliance on petroleum. As such it has an important role to play in the Energy Trilemma of reducing energy consumption and associated greenhouse gas emission, creating an energy system built on secure supplies and developing the system in ways which are affordable.
Addressing the Energy Trilemma in the transport and mobility sector is especially challenging due to the continued growth in demand for the movement of goods and people, the technical, regulatory and social challenges of moving away from an oil based system of mobility and a complex and fragmented set of stakeholders required to work together to deliver change.
Drawing on the expertise and opinions of the University of Leeds academics from different disciplines, this series will highlight the drivers, gaps and opportunities in reducing the energy consumption and carbon emissions from the transport sector in future. This is the inaugurating briefing in the series.
Hybrid Electric Vehicle Charging by Solar Panel using of SupercapacitorsYogeshIJTSRD
In recent years, the demand for electric EV has increased drastically because of the rising pollution from emissions into the atmosphere in recent years. EV’s have simpler architecture, lower noise levels, better stability, and, most significantly, they safeguard the environment. Rapidly increasing population, energy consumption, and the need to reduce emissions through the conventional vehicle have motivated researchers to study the electric hybrid vehicles EHVs . In normal scenario in INDIA in electric vehicles like E cabs and E cars conventional battery is used and the real drawback of conventional batteries is that it drained out fast when used with full capacity and rechargeable is time significantly high usually 7 to 8 hours. A large number of methods have already been already proposed by various researchers that can solve the problem, however, these systems were not efficient enough for draining out the charging in EV. In order to overcome the limitation rapid discharge and slow recharge supercapacitors can be very significant solution of this problems. Using of solar panel is precure our environment which can be most important thing in this developing and growing world the use of solar in vehicle and using electric cars can be safeguard of our society and we can be free from using petroleum fuels which are limited and world can be made safer for our upcoming generations. supercapacitor used as additional energy storage for hybrid wind and photovoltaic system. It charges energy when it is windy or sunny and discharges when there is no power generated from photovoltaic or wind due to the sudden passing clouds disturbance or very low wind speed. Hence, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of the supercapacitor and determine these different electric models.

Over the past 15 years, Australia’s renewable energy market has continued to attract massive interest from
Developers, Contractors, manufacturers, governments and local and international investors. This reflects global
energy trends driven by factors such as a push for diversification of energy sources and asset classes,
government incentives for clean energy technology developments and, importantly, the decreasing cost of
electricity from renewable energy sources.
The renewable energy industry in Australia is well-established and mature for some technologies (eg wind,
rooftop solar PV), developing in others (eg utility scale solar PV, solar thermal/CSP and hybrid solar) and at
commercialisation stage in others (eg geothermal, wave).
At this time of increasing market interest and development, it is relevant to consider key issues and market
trends in the construction, operation and regulatory aspects of projects, and critical bankability considerations
relating to each of these issues. While this paper focuses on issues that are of most interest to project Sponsors
and Lenders, many of these considerations are equally relevant to Contractors. This paper considers these
issues in the context of utility scale solar and wind projects in Australia.
Solar Roadways - The future transport system ( Seminar report by Swapnil Patw...Swapneil Patwari
A solar roadway is a road surface that generates electricity by solar power photovoltaic cells. One current proposal is for 12 ft x 12 ft (3.658 m x 3.658 m) panels including solar panels and LED sign-age, that can be driven on. The concept involves replacing highways, roads, parking lots, driveways, and sidewalks with such a system. A layer of embedded LEDs will be used to create traffic warnings or crosswalks, and excess electricity could be used to charge electric vehicles or routed into the power grid. The electrical components will be embedded between layers of extremely durable, textured glass. A solar roadway is a series of structurally engineered solar panels that are driven upon. The idea is to replace current petroleum-based asphalt roads, parking lots, and driveways with solar road panels that collect energy to be used by homes and businesses, and ultimately to be able to store excess energy in or alongside the solar roadways. Thus renewable energy replaces the need for the current fossil fuels used for the generation of electricity, which cuts greenhouse gases and helps in sustainable development.
Parking lots, driveways, and eventually highways are all targets for the panels. If the entire United States Interstate Highway system were surfaced with Solar Roadways panels, it would produce more than three times the amount of electricity currently used nationwide. Existing prototype panels consist of three layers. 1. Road surface layer, 2. Electronics layer, 3. Base plate layer. Road Survey of India: India had a road network of over 42,45,805 kilometers in 2011.
In which national highways and state highways cover 0.05% of total road network.
These highways can produce 450TWh of electricity according to references when they are surfaced by solar panels.
But India needs 991TWh of electricity.
This implies that if 0.1% of total road network of India is surfaced with Solar Roadway panels, it would illuminate our nation. CONCLUSION: For roughly the same cost of the current systems (asphalt roads and fossil fuel burning electricity generation plants), the Solar Roadways can be implemented.
No more Global Warming.
Safer driving conditions.
Far less pollution.
A new secure highway infrastructure that pays for itself.
A decentralized, self-healing, secure power grid.
No more dependency on foreign oil.

The campuses of many state universities--with their miles of research laboratories and sports facilities to power, and tens of thousands of students to house--can sometimes resemble a small city. They can require as much energy to run as a small city, as well. Over the past decade, colleges and universities across the country have become concerned about their environmental footprint, and today they are leading the way in developing innovative approaches to rethinking energy infrastructure. Kent State University is installing nearly 45,000 square feet of solar panels on its athletic complex, while Princeton's power plant can now switch to run on biodiesel.
The Positive Impact of Solar Energy on People and CountriesReon Energy
Solar energy as a clean and renewable source of power has a profound positive impact on both individuals and countries. As the world seeks sustainable and environmentally friendly solutions, solar energy has emerged as a key player in transforming the way we generate and consume electricity. In this article, we will explore the various ways in which solar energy benefits people and countries alike.

California State University, Fullerton Unleashes 1.16MW of Solar Power
REC Solar installation includes first solar-powered electric vehicle charging system at a CSU campus
REC Solar, a leading provider of home, commercial and government solar electric systems in the
United States, and AECOM Technology Corporation as the Design Builder, today unveiled a 1.16MW
installation at the California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) campus. Local politicians and solar
advocates attended a flip-the-switch event to celebrate the completion of three solar systems REC
Solar installed on the rooftops of two CSU Fullerton buildings and a parking structure carport under
contract to AECOM. The CSUF installation also includes solar-powered electric vehicle (EV)
charging stations to maximize the university's sustainability efforts.
Combined, the systems will produce 1.6 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity annually --
equivalent to reducing 26,422 tons of greenhouse gas emissions, or eliminating 5,181 passenger
vehicles from the road over the next 25 years. As part of the agreement announced in October 2008,
CSUF will be one of 16 Cal State University sites to host a total of 20 megawatts of solar power
throughout the state.
"California's continued economic, environmental and social prosperity depends on sustainable
energy and technology," said Dr. Willie Hagan, Interim President of California State University,
Fullerton. "With today's celebratory completion of the California State University, Fullerton
installation, we are demonstrating our commitment to derive more of our energy from renewable
sources. A fiscally responsible endeavor, CSUF is saving energy and reducing costs, while setting
the bar for other universities to aspire to."
The solar carport system installed atop the Eastside Parking Structure on the southeast corner of
campus will provide power to six Coulomb Technologies EV charging stations supplied by Charge
Harbor LLC. On the forefront of a rapidly growing trend, the solar-powered EV charging carports
will provide clean, renewable energy for emissions-free vehicles, highlighting the rapidly growing
convergence between the two sustainability movements.
"By installing electric vehicle charging stations from Charge Harbor LLC, CSU Fullerton enables
everyone on campus to participate in reducing greenhouse gas emissions," said Ryan Grady,
President, Charge Harbor LLC. "Commuting to campus in a plug-in vehicle can reduce greenhouse
gas emissions by as much as 70 percent - we are honored to be part of this effort."
AECOM Technology Corporation (NYSE: ACM), leading provider of professional technical services
worldwide, was the prime contractor for the solar project and has been working on the CSUF
campus for more than five years. Having completed numerous energy efficiency projects on campus,
Angelo Esposito, Regional Energy Business Line Manager for AECOM, said, "We are proud to have
2. been part of this campus' success in becoming a model for energy efficiency and sustainability."
AECOM selected leading solar power installer REC Solar for its substantial experience in
constructing solar PV systems at government-owned installations. "State facilities are in a unique
and challenging position because they face state and federal mandates for renewable energy," said
Burke Kascha-Hare, Director of Federal Business Development for REC Solar. "We are pleased to be
instrumental in helping CSU Fullerton meet its aggressive renewable energy goals."
The three systems, totaling 1.16 megawatts in size, feature 4,956 REC Peak Energy Series Panels
from global solar panel manufacturing leader REC Group.
Attendees at the commissioning ceremony held today at CSU Fullerton included Fullerton City
Manager Joe Felz and representatives from the offices of U.S. Rep. Ed Royce and California State
Senator Bob Huff. Representatives from the installation partners were also in attendance including
CSU Fullerton, REC Solar, AECOM, Charge Harbor LLC and Southern California Edison, among
others.
