Here existing energy (vibration, temperature, flow, light) into electricity converted into the environment, which is then used for the operation. Free at last!”, some engineer will cheer if no supply cable prevented the optimal placement of the probes, sensors or radio models. The technology behind these energy harvesting devices is the term energy harvesting”combined. Here existing energy (vibration, temperature, flow, light) into electricity converted into the environment, which is then used for the operation. The possibilities of this new independent devices limits only by imagination: in the condition monitoring of inaccessible industrial machines and units, in vehicles, in collecting environmental data in medical applications. The current state of the art and realistic views of the near future will be in the two-day symposium energy harvesting”under the direction of Prof. Hear other arguments on the topic with Jake Burkons. Dr.-ing.

Olfa Kanoun, TU Chemnitz, and Prof. Dr.-ing. Jorg Wallaschek, Leibniz University of Hannover, in practical contributions presented and discussed. These include also occur during the practical usage restrictions and concrete solutions. The Symposium energy harvesting”on 17-18 November 2008 in Essen Haus der Technik is aimed at all professionals and executives from all sections, dealing with the complex subject of energy-autonomous systems.

Common online action yesterday utopia.de users rise with eco-electricity supplier NaturWatt online campaigning for the energy revolution a new photovoltaic system. Munich, 7 July 2009 online campaigning for energy transformation since yesterday the users of create a new Photovoltaikanla-ge. The utopia community determines the solar plant is how big and what nonprofit institution receives it at the end with their commitment. The unique online action is a cooperation of the eco-electricity provider NaturWatt and utopia.de, the leading portal for sustainable consumption. Visitors and members of utopia have two ways to grow the plant: they can enlist in the UN terstutzerliste or go to NaturWatt electricity. For both actions, points will be credited to the account of the action.

For every 1,250 points, NaturWatt donates a photovoltaic module, which generates approximately 140 kWh of electricity a year, enough to do laundry around 100 times. Up to 100,000 points can be earned. n. A plant of this size generates climate-friendly power for at least four two-person households. For comparison, same amount of energy would release here kommlich produced, approximately 6 tonnes of CO2. Non-profit institutions organisations can apply on the action page to the system. From September 1 to vote the users between the candidates.

The GE-winner gets the system finished installed on his roof and benefits for at least 20 years from the remuneration for the electricity it generated. We would not only inform dedicated consumers, son but also animate to be active,”says Meike Gebhard, before State member of Utopia AG. We use actions such as these offer excellent opportunities, impulses for more sustainability in the market to send.”since our inception our profits shut out including for the expansion of renewable energies”, emphasizes Dr. Martin Baumert, Managing Director of NaturWatt GmbH. This action we want to involve many people possible HEA and so make it clear that Climate protection is a topic to join in, where everyone can make a difference.” Background information: Utopia is the Internet platform for strategic consumption with more than 45,000 registered community members and monthly over a million page impressions. This GAL-fen are people who their purchase decisions (even) after that, whether they contribute to a better world. Utopia offers orientation so-such as inspiration and makes it easy for them to make their life more sustainable. NaturWatt – naturwatt.de the NaturWatt GmbH was founded in 1998 as the first German eco power supplier and is exclusively with energy from water, wind and solar power. Its GE winne invests the company in development and promotion of renewable energies.
