    The electric car gap between China and other countries is the battery technology

    battery news No Comments

    Recently, deputy director of the Shanghai Aerospace Technology Research Institute and the Shanghai Aerospace Bureau, Shanghai Jiaotong University professor Guang Meng, in talking about the gap between China and foreign electric cars said: “China in the overall design, engineering, manufacturing still have a great gap, we can not be blindly optimistic.”

    Professor Meng said that the first gap is the electric car battery technology. “The domestic set for the car battery plates manufacturing equipments are all imported.” He suggested domestic enterprises to improve the existing personnel structure, in addition to technical personnel should also pay attention to market personnel. He said: “The domestic auto companies also remained at the technical level. In fact, the world-wide market and the pattern of world manufacturing, only has the technology is not enough. From the market level, the greater profit is in the other sectors of industrial chain, this aspect we are not concerned enough.”

    “Artificial leaves” solar cell simulation of the natural power

    battery news No Comments

    North Carolina State University researchers recently published a group of technology-based gel of water, a solar energy device - artificial leaves. The researchers said that not only water-based and silicon-based solar cells as solar cells produce electricity, but also the cost and environment friendly benefits, the idea of simulating natural produce electricity near a step closer to reality.

    According to reports, these flexible solar cells containing photosensitive molecules of the gel and a special water in carbon nanotubes or graphite electrodes. And leaves the plant molecules produced by sunlight similar to the process of sugar in the photosensitive molecules and the electrode under the effect of artificial leaves in the sun solar cells can produce electricity.

    North Carolina State University Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Professor Orlin Velev said the team hopes to have the same nature as the use of solar energy. However, this idea has been confirmed by chemical synthesis of photosensitive molecules that have access to electricity by the sun, but such natural substances as chlorophyll because of its unique structure and properties may be more appropriate choice. Then, researchers will adjust the optoelectronic devices based on water, so that solar cells are closer to the true leaves. In addition, researchers also intend to simulate the plants found in the auto-update, and try to gel, in addition to water other than photosensitive material elements to further improve efficiency Water-based electricity production of solar batteries. Wei Liefu even consider the future will be covered by a layer of flexible sheet roof water-based solar cells.

    Weilie Fu said: “We believe that based on bionic technologies in the future will be flexible solar cells and silicon-based solar cells for people with a choice of becoming energy technology.”

    South Korean well-known companies to actively promote the mass production of solar cells

    battery news No Comments

    South Korea well-known manufacturers began actively promoting the of mass production of solar cells. South Korea’s Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. in 2011, the production scale will be extended to an annual output of 600 MW, 2012 will be extended to an annual output of 1 GW. Including South Korea’s Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., including the entire Samsung Group plans to the year 2020 solar battery business has invested about 420 billion yen, the overall group size total production of modules GW. The group also recently built in the production of polycrystalline silicon solar cells and the sale of the internal supply chain.

    However, the production scale of South Korean companies and the performance of solar cell modules and large companies in the world is still nothing in comparison. United States and China reached an annual output of 1 GW of several major manufacturers. conversion efficiency, Samsung and silicon thin silicon film hybrid unit is 19%, 18% for cells based on silicon, thin film CIGS unity based on classes of compounds is 11%. As low as the level of the world’s best 3 to 4 points percentage.

    On the other hand, South Korean companies into the TV screen and thin auto show a strong field sales force in the field of solar cells also play a role in the company. For example, in companies producing solar power in American society Morning energy plans across the southern United States to import 900 MW solar power plant, to obtain the first order is the modern and South Korean LG Electronics. Under the contract, the modern end of 2012 in Arizona and other places, including the construction of 150 MW nominal power plant in the world, including plants the largest scale solar total of 175mW.

    Although Japanese manufacturers is technically a little better, but lost in the sale of capacity and eventually the technology will also be catching up - a familiar situation in the field of solar cells may also be repeated.
