The Houcs of Hybrid Vehicle


Is hybrid vehicle really the solution to our energy & environment based problems? Can a hybrid vehicle really be an energy efficient solution of transport? Is the manufacturing of hybrid vehicle an environment friendly process? & if hybrid vehicle is really an answer to all our problems then, how much energy are we going to conserve by switching to hybrid vehicle & what impacts would hybrid vehicles leave on our environment. Lets see are we sure we wish to talk about hybrid vehicle, is adopting to hybrid vehicle really a solution and if the era of hybrid vehicle would only be a transiently phase then do we really need to invest into hybrid vehicle.

Looking beyond hybrid vehicle tells us that there are batter solutions then adopting hybrid vehicles. We’ve been able to develop more efficient technologies, then the misty and deceiving hybrid vehicle. We know that before the world wars, air and kinetic energy based engines were operational in buses and trams in Europe, the capitalist decided to kill those Eco friendly cheaper to use technologies so that fossil fuel could be exploited. Now when the wind of change is blowing they are trying there luck with the hocus of hybrid vehicle, they intend to keep the technologies such as electric and hydrogen cars very costly until that they can pull the last of fossil fuel from the planet and choke the last human being to death. Renewable resources of energy are already promising free electricity in the longer run, then rejecting an electric car and advocating a hybrid vehicle is nothing less then a game of deception. Water being the waste of a hydrogen vehicle makes hybrid vehicle a gas guzzler.

Demand Alternate, Demand Renewable cos you earn for your self not for your vehicle.

Solar Rickshaw London Lahore

London

Cycle, CNG and LPG rickshaws are common in the developing countries such as India, China, Bangladesh and Pakistan. Rickshaws are one of the major transport facilities in these countries, but another type of rickshaw is about to hit London January 09, this rickshaw wont be runny on fossil fuel energy, Solar Lab a UK based renewable energy research company is developing a rickshaw powered by sustainable clean green solar & human energy. According to the drawing and design details by solar lab, photovoltaic solar cells will be making the roof of the ride and aid the paddle power. According to solar lad solar rickshaw will consume 75 % or more of the required power through the photovoltaic cells while the remaining power will be generated through the paddling by the driver. This human and solar powered hybrid solar rickshaw is expected to reduce 2 tons of carbon emissions per Annam/each rickshaw. As the design of this solar rickshaw is modular so it can easily be converted into load bearing vehicle. If solar rickshaw is a success next ear in London then we might see them in other major cities all over the world.

My hybrid rickshaw design is a bit different from Sun lab’s solar rickshaw design, inspired by the aero turbines of Dr. Bill Becker I am thinking of harnessing the naturally produced wind energy due to the movement of the rickshaw along with the solar energy as well, integrating paddle power in my hybrid rickshaw for backup will be great, so my rickshaw will have an aero turbine mounted on the top along with photovoltaic cells on the roof as well as paddle power for back up and little exercise for the rickshaw driver, every time the rickshaw will hit 6mph the aero turbine should start producing electricity along with the photovoltaic cells juicing up the batteries not only under sun light but also with the wind drag produced through the movement of the rickshaw, thus making it a very efficient and zero carbon emission rickshaw. Running on the roads in Lahore I’m gona call it URAN KHATOLA
