Is Solar Power The New Oil?

Please rate, comment and subscribe to the feed on the right! Many manufacturers are going into production or creating concepts with integrated solar panels in the roof or body of the car. Although under normal use this will not provide all the vehicles power it will make a significant contribution when you factor in the decreasing cost of solar panels and the rising cost of fossil fuel. The Fisker Karma can already be ordered from the Fisker website - the first ones are scheduled for delivery in 2009. The music theme is called ’sunshine’. The wattage of the average car roof panel is around 250 watts. If you covered the entire car in solar film or panels you would get around 1000 watts or more.

    actually, the bill was made to keep people from collecting and/or selling their own water without regulation. which has its benefits and its drawbacks like everything else.
    have you ever seen the movie Tank Girl where the Evil guy puts that thing in that guy’s back? wicked!

    La prochaine étape, récupérer l’eau de pluie & changer l’installation au gaz pour la cuisine & en électrique depuis l’alimentation électrique. On a vendu notre ancienne Peugeot 406 pour une Prius avec panneaux solaires rechargeable sur l’électricité 220 volts.

    J’ai équipé la maison de mon père au Portugal en panneaux solaires pour la production d’électricité, de chauffage & d’eau chaude. Dans la sud du pays, il fait toujours beau. L’hiver, il fait entre 15 à 20°C ; l’été 25-35°C.

    C’est très avantageux & économique. La Comission Européenne nous a subventionné pour l’achat & l’installation à 50% du prix !

    Cela fait 2 ans & demi que l’on gagne de l’argent, sans rien faire & sans payer d’impôts !

    > how does it fail aerodynamic? u sir are stupid

    The car is more aerodynamic driving BACKWARDS than forwards.

    Do you know why?

    The most aerodynamic shape that can exist is the same shape as a raindrop. It’s blunt on the front, and tapered at the end.

    Is the front blunt, or tapered?

    You see, ACTUALLY stupid people have been trained to think cars are aerodynamic, but it’s the complete opposite.

    If you want to see an aerodynamic car, look at the Aptera.

    As an engineer that had to take aerodynamics to get my degree, I have to ask the question.

    Did every single car designer FAIL aerodynamics, or did they just not bother to take the course?

    Hi Juscurious! …
    Hi Juscurious! Thanks for commenting! The panels don’t run the car, they help with the charging of the car. I acknowledge they don’t usually completely charge the car however they increase efficiency. You’re right about the wattage but it’s not mean’t to completely charge it. It just assists with charging. Stupid video or not it’s a 5 star rated stupid video.

    It also depends how much you use the car. If you use it for a few miles once a week, then it will run the car.

    This has to be the stupidest video I’ve ever seen on YouTube and that is saying a lot. For those of you knuckle draggers out there why don’t you take a Physics Course. Solar will NEVER be more that a few % of our total energy package. There isn’t enough surface area on a car for more than a few hundred watts of power and this is not enough to run a car. You see 1hp= 746Watts. Do the math. This is a STUPID Video. Study Physics and Engineering and you will not make stupid videos.
