INDEPENDENT 17 APRIL 2019 - Extinction Rebellion: London Tube wifi shut down by police in attempt to disrupt climate change protesters
Climate
change is causing the world to become more parched in some geographical locations
and wetter in others at the ice caps melt and the temperature of planet earth
rises. One
way of helping to global
warming is to reduce the
carbon dioxide and other gases that are the product of combustion in our
petrol and diesel engines. Preferably, we should eliminate all internal
combustion engines in favour of low carbon transportation such as electric
vehicles. In
order to make that work we need an infrastructure
that is capable of delivering clean renewable energy to a network of service
stations that spans the globe. In
order to get anywhere near that happy ideal we will need the cooperation of
Governments, Energy Suppliers and Motor Manufacturers around the world. At
the moment that is as likely to happen as aliens invading us from another
planet, because there is a complete lack of cooperation from the parties. Is
there a solution? We can only hope that somebody out there is hoping for the
same thing and that such hope spreads to enough people so that eventually the
world's politicians
begin to take sufficient interest to want to do something about it.
SMART
SERVICE STATIONS
- This concept EV forecourt offers between 7.68 - 15.36MWh of solar
assisted energy storage with a capacity of between 48-96 battery
cartridges on a continuous charge cycle. Five of these stations (76.8MW)
could recharge (refuel) up to 10 trucks or cars a minute at peak times. During
rush hour, up to 300 vehicles might be serviced in one hour if drivers
don't dawdle, as in get out of their vehicles for any reason - there is no
need using automated billing - but this would require registered users.
The truck shown in these AutoCAD drawings is 3.55 wide x 3.5 high x 7.7M
long (8 x 11.5 x 25 feet). This station could accommodate trucks 4.46M
(14.77 feet) high as shown, or with a raised roof, almost any truck
currently on the market - though longer thinner trucks are more fuel
efficient. During
an eight hour day 2,400 trucks might be serviced using five forecourts on
the assumption that we start every morning with 96 x 5 = 480 slow charged
cartridges from off-peak supplies. The same forecourt might be used to
service fuel-cell
cars powered by stabilized hydrogen.
One size fits all. The secret is to KISS
the design (Keep It Simple Silly). There are only 28* moving parts in this
station, not including the gearbox for the solar powered drive motor. This
is possible because with this system the vehicles load the cartridges
themselves. SUSTAINABLE
DEVELOPMENT - Solar powered cars will help to reduce the strain on an all
electric transport system, but it will need a concerted efforts on all
fronts to start the healing process concerning climate
change.
UNITED NATIONS - António Guterres and Greta Thunberg at the COP 24 conference of the parties on climate change. Where the extremely brave and thoughtful climate activist has got the world's attention, she now needs to look at what needs to be done to apply the global warming brakes.
Might we suggest a need to concentrate on building the infrastructure for electric vehicles, encourage low carbon shipping, build more wind farms and make houses that are virtually energy self-sufficient. These are the actions that will bring about change. The only way to make this happen is to insist on targets that includes programmes to deliver from each nation, with sanctions for those countries who will not do the right thing -such as the climate criminals Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. Some environmental problems need research money to take ideas to technology level 9 for market.
