Portable Solar Energy New Clothing To Solve Energy Consumption

and Nanometer Combined with technology, portable solar energy can be used. Spin Things bring light to remote mountain villages without power supply. If so, about 2 billion of the world's population can no longer need to set up wires, and rely on their own clothes to get electricity.

Researchers from a global energy research institute in the United States have inserted a micro battery. shirt Sew into related gadgets, and then take such products to remote communities in developing countries. The project is designed to allow locals to use their textile fabrics to obtain clean energy. This move not only enables local communities to adopt new technologies to solve the problem of lack of energy, but also enhances the value of self-produced textiles.

In addition to the aforementioned mention, other developers are training local people to weave two pieces of solar collectors, rechargeable batteries, USB interfaces and LED lights into clothes. The advantage of this kind of clothes is that people can charge the mobile phone when they walk, do their daily work, and most importantly, the electric lighting converted by the solar energy that people can get back home can bring light to the night of the community. Ms. Sheila Kennedy, the textile designer of the Boston research and development organization in charge of the project, told reporters, "you only need to expose your clothes to 3 hours in the sun (with the fabric of the battery), and it can collect a lot of sunlight and turn it into electricity, and it can be illuminated for 7 hours!"

With the cooperation of several non-governmental organizations, the project has been launched in many developing countries, including Brazil, Kenya, Haiti, Nicaragua, Madagascar, Mexico and South Africa. In the mountainous area of Mexico, nomads have begun to dress and recharge during the day, lighting their rooms at night and selling their products to the city. There is a non-governmental organization in Nicaragua called Paso Pasi Fick organization, which helps to provide electricity for two villages. "Today, children can read in the evening, and women dare to go out at night to carry things," the head of the agency said. They no longer use money to buy diesel or battery lighting, and keep the room bright. "

This project reduces the carbon footprint of the production and life of many underdeveloped countries and regions, and the power generation fabrics they wear are lighter, more fashionable and more comfortable. According to the relevant institutions in Nicaragua, although they have not yet developed such products, in order to comply with the economic mode of global new energy development, they have realized the ideal of bringing new type of electricity saving textiles to remote mountain villages, and the price of such textiles is only 16 US dollars per unit.

In view of the changes brought by nanotechnology to the world, Brazil sociologist Paul Martin believes that the integration of textiles into solar energy technology has become a global trend. At present, R & D institutions only need to consider how to bring effective cost price products to people of effective demand. The textile (added) with solar power is a good example of R & D. In the past, the Brazil government mistakenly considered that science and technology had no social applicability, so it did not value the power of science and technology. But today, in order to comply with local needs, the Brazil government has invested a lot of money in the field of technology, aiming to make Brazil a leading field in the world and set an example for the whole world.

Unlike these countries, the United States has developed bulletproof helmets. Germanium is known to be brittle and hard. In fact, the "thin paper" materials made from germanium are very flexible and bend at will without fear of damage. In particular, germanium nanowires have an unexpected degree of seed setting, and even have a similar strength and weight ratio to Kevlar. Usually, the impact force of germanium can not be affected by germanium nanowires. However, it is not enough to make use of Ge nanowires to make bulletproof vest. The reason why Kevlar is bulletproof is not only because of its good bulletproof performance, but also because of its unique ballistic performance. But the germanium nanowires are slightly inferior to this point. So some companies in the United States began planning for the development of solar power uniforms a few years ago by using semiconductor components in new fibers.

In general, germanium absorbs light that some human eyes can see and absorbs invisible infrared rays. However, because the photovoltaic effect of germanium is far from the energy absorbed by silicon, the scientists in the United States have developed a silicon nanowire similar to thin paper. It is understood that silicon nanowires can convert more sunlight into electricity, and individual silicon nanowires are 35% stronger than germanium nanowires, and are more resistant to corrosion. In this way, the germanium silicon nanowire fabric inside the bulletproof vest and the silicon germanium nanowires around hard plastic will spanform the solar energy into electrical energy, which will drive the sensors inside the bulletproof vest and some other electrical equipment to play a better bulletproof role.

In addition, Danish National Sustainable Energy Agency is also trying to develop low-cost plastic solar lights for African countries. However, studies show that textile fiber science also needs to take a very high risk to apply appropriate technologies to developing countries and regions. There are still many technical difficulties to be overcome in order to let people wear such textiles.

Harich hand, President of India's solar energy R & D enterprise, praised its portability, adaptability and light quality. But it is still a long way to go for social enterprises to introduce such sustainable portable power into military, family and business. To help remote communities do not need external power at all, it is not a complete solution in itself, because there are still some limitations in such power. At present, companies in Europe, America and Japan are working on mass production of this kind of power generation clothing. There are also individual enterprises in China trying to develop in this field. However, due to the further development of relevant technologies, there is no product launch yet.
