Environmental Technology
Power Over Wireless technologoy has the potential to support environmental sciences to conserve the natural environment and resources. Sustainable development is the core of environmental technologies. When applying sustainable development as a solution for environmental issues, the solutions need to be socially equitable, economically viable, and environmentally sound.
Such environmental technologies include; recycling, water purification, sewage treatment, remediation, flue gas treatment, solid waste management, renewable energy, and others.
The global reduction of greenhouse gases is dependent on the adoption of energy conservation technologies at industrial level as well as this clean energy generation.
Magenn Air Power Rotor System
Magenn Power's MARS is a Wind Power Anywhere solution with distinct advantages over existing Conventional Wind Turbines and Diesel Generating Systems including: global deployment, lower costs, better operational performance, and greater environmental advantages.
MARS is a lighter-than-air tethered wind turbine that rotates about a horizontal axis in response to wind, generating electrical energy. This electrical energy is transferred down the 1000-foot tether for immediate use, or to a set of batteries for later use, or to the power grid. Helium sustains MARS and allows it to ascend to a higher altitude than traditional wind turbines. MARS captures the energy available in the 600 to 1000-foot low level and nocturnal jet streams that exist almost everywhere. MARS rotation also generates the "Magnus effect" which provides additional lift, keeps the MARS stabilized, and positions it within a very controlled and restricted location to adhere to FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) & Transport Canada guidelines.
Coast-line or off-shore locations are not necessary to capture higher speed winds. Reaching winds at 1,000-feet above ground level allow MARS to be installed closer to the grid. MARS is mobile and can be rapidly deployed, deflated, and redeployed without the need for towers or heavy cranes. MARS is bird and bat friendly with lower noise emissions and is capable of operating in a wider range of wind speeds - from 4 mph to greater than 60 mph.
MARS can complement a diesel generator by offering a combined diesel-wind power solution that delivers power below 20 cents per kWh. This compares to a wide range of 25 cents to 99 cents per kWh for diesel-alone, reflecting the high fuel and transportation costs in remote areas. The MARS combined solution allows lower pollution and green house gas emissions. It also results in lower handling, transporting, and storage costs.
A range of customer can benefit from MARS including developing nations where infrastructure is limited or non existent; off-grid combined wind and diesel solutions for island nations, farms, remote areas, cell towers, exploration equipment, backup power & water pumps for natural gas mines; rapid deployment diesel & wind solutions (to include airdrop) to disaster areas for power to emergency and medical equipment, water pumps; on-grid applications for farms, factories, remote communities; and wind farm deployments.
Genersys Solar Panels
Solar power is the technology of obtaining usable energy from the light of the Sun. Solar energy has been used in many traditional technologies for centuries and has come into widespread use where other power supplies are absent, such as in remote locations and in space.
The Genersys panels and systems are equally made to exact standards and meet ISO, European and regional certification. Operating in over 50 countries our panels have to meet precise standards and quality control. Our panels are made of high quality materials and not to be compared to cheaper manufactured panels, who often use plastic and materials that can degrade over time.
The sun's energy is so powerful that in just 1 hour the amount of energy that falls on the earth equals the amount used by the world's population in a whole year.
Most of the sun's energy transforms to processes such as heat and photosynthesis, which are the driving factors behind our weather and biological systems. But it can also be captured and converted into electricity.
Wavegen
Hydroelectric power generation utilizes potential energy of water, and it is one of renewable natural resources now available. It is environment-friendly, durable for long service time and quickly responsive to the change in the demand of the electrical network. Hitachi Ltd. manufactured its first Pelton turbine and generator unit in 1911. Since then, Hitachi developed its own technology and supplied its hydroelectric generating equipment not only in Japan and but in the countries all over the world.
The major advantage of hydro systems is elimination of the cost of fuel. Hydroelectric plants are immune to price increases for fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas or coal, and do not require imported fuel. Hydroelectric plants tend to have longer lives than fuel-fired generation, with some plants now in service having been built 50 to 100 years ago. Operating labor cost is usually low since plants are automated and have few personnel on site during normal operation.
Rising demand for energy and the finite nature of conventional fuels, are leading to increased prices. The problem of green house gas emissions continues. Harnessing the immense wave power in the world's oceans can be part of the solution to our energy problems. Ocean waves are a tertiary form of solar energy, in that unequal heating of the Earth's surface generates wind, and wind blowing over water generates waves. Despite the fact that nearly 75% of the Earth's surface is covered with water, waves are a largely unexplored source of energy, compared with the progress that has been made in harnessing the sun and wind.
Until recently the commercial use of wave power has been limited to small systems of tens to hundreds of watts aboard generate power. As the buoy heaves up and down in waves, the oscillating water column (OWC) in the centre pipe of the buoy's hull acts like a piston, alternately pushing air out the top of the pipe and drawing it in. This pneumatic power can be converted directly to sound through a foghorn, or indirectly to light by spinning a turbine-generator, which charges an electrical storage battery. Although the relentless energy of marine currents has been obvious from the earliest days of seafaring, it is only now that the development of modern offshore engineering capabilities coinciding with the need to find large new renewable energy resources makes this a technically feasible and economically viable possibility.
