ELF: groen rijden met kruising tussen elektrische auto en fiets. Foto: ELF Een Amerikaans bedrijf met de opmerkelijke naam “Organic Transit” (letterlijk vertaald: biologisch transport) maakt deze grappige kruising tussen een (elektrische) fiets en een auto. De ELF rijdt met een kleine elektromotor, maar kan ook aangedreven worden met een trapper. Vergelijkbaar met een elektrische fiets, dus, ware het niet dat er ook een dak op zit. In het dak zitten zonnepanelen verwerkt, die de elektromotor en accu van elektriciteit voorzien.

From EAA-PHEV We'd like discussion of this page to happen here on this page’s Discussion tab and general discussion of the conversion to occur on the eaa-phev maillist. [edit] About the Open Source PriusPlus Project The PriusPlus project is an open source project set up to develop a method to convert a '04-'07 Toyota Prius into a Plug-in Hybrid. The project is a combination of hardware and software development to allow qualified individuals or individuals working with a qualified electrician to convert their own car to a PHEV. [edit] Current Status While the documentation is not yet as thorough as would be desired, the necessary information is available to complete a conversion. See this 2007 08 01 maillist post for the Latest News. Another avid Prius enthusiast named Cheap! Be sure to heed all warnings and read the Safety section below.

Published July 31, 2012 By Jeff Cobb Graduate students Jay Perry, left, May 2012 graduate Brent Brubaker and grad student Ken Gendrich celebrate their collaboration with Dr. Charles Perry on the wheel-hub motor, plug-in hybrid retrofit kit.

(MTSU photos by Andy Heidt) A group of five Middle Tennessee State University students and their engineering professor, Dr. An un-named backer has stepped forward with reportedly strong support to see the idea through for fleet use initially. The system is estimated to add maybe $3,000 to the cost of a vehicle and could be used around town to augment mileage by at least 50 percent, if not run in all-electric mode for 100-percent fuel savings. Perry holds the Russell Chair of Manufacturing, and has previously come up with 40 patented ideas while working 28 years for IBM.

His financial backer is “totally committed to us,” he said, and will accompany him on presentations seeking further support.

This wiki is intended to be a one stop resource for anyone thinking of converting a car from a ICE car to run on pure electricity. If you are not familiar with a wiki it is just like an encyclopaedia that anyone can add to or edit.

This means that all of our collective knowledge is collected in one easy to read place, errors that inevitably occur are monitored and changed by other members and the information stays up to date. The wiki is still growing and every member of this site has full permission to edit or create whatever they think will contribute positively to this resource. Below is a sort of contents page with the topics arranged in themes rather than alphabetically to make it a little easier to navigate. A Beginners Guide to Electric Cars:It can be pretty daunting when you find out about how popular and useful electric cars seem to be, it prompts all kinds of questions and the scepticism of something that seems too good to be true.

KNX. Humasol. Welcome to PVCDROM | PVEducation. Photovoltaics is a most elegant energy source. Light shines on a crystal and produces electricity. Its as simple as that. There are no moving parts. The fuel source (sunlight) is free, abundant and widely distributed, available to every country and person in the world. At over 165,000 TW the solar resource dwarfs the world’s current power usage of 16 TW or even our projected future usage of 60 TW. The many advantages of photovoltaics lend itself to being the ultimate energy source. For the last two decades, photovoltaics has been the fastest growing industry for its size. This site is an electronic book on PV.
