So cute? I never thought before that remote village of Oeledo in my country become friendly environmentally village

It's should be considered by other provinces of Indonesia, especially central government. However, late response of recent government make this out of reach. I guess the frequent problem of most province concerning to electricity will be solved comprehensively. Is it contraversial? citizen of the remote village can implement friendly environmentally life than urban citizen.

I hope that someday, I can buy electric car to visit this remote village because I am proad of their achievement. I wanna to make complete and comprehensive report about their simple technology into my blog specialized about this village.

The wind and the sun is an unlimited gift. And in the village of Oeledo, it turned into a miracle of grace. Thanks to the wind and the sun, a remote village on the shores of the Straits of Timor, Rote Ndao regency, East Nusa Tenggara is now no longer silent, the nights are no longer dark. In between the sound waves on the beach Oeledo, there are still faint radio voice that flows from cracks in the walls of timber houses. And in the middle of a quiet village, often sounds old-fashioned dot matrix printer rattling from a phone booth stall.

All can happen to thanks to electricity, although PLN's ( state-owned Electricity Company of Republic of Indonesia) cable never spread to arid and impoverished village. This is the power that was born from the marriage with the wind and sun. Electricity instantly change the rhythm of village life that was originally only know one type of work: upland rice farming, scaffolding, or the occasional heavily palm sugar.

Thanks to electricity, residents are now beginning to recognize Oeledo home industries. There's a gamble to open the business fabric, some are a businessman furniture, until the ice plant for pickling fish.

"The presence of electricity has changed my life," said Meri, resident of Oeledo. Before there was electricity in the house, women 37 years it was just a farmer. Now she has transformed a business woman. It was she who led the group of mothers in the manufacture of industrial fabric weavers after emerging.

On the sidelines of his time, she also deals with requests for savings and loans bank's customers in his village. Certainly it is not a big bank like the one in the city. The bank originally was the office "PLN of Oeledo" formed independently by local citizens to manage electricity bills. Later, money from electricity bills is abundant for paying to the office of "PLN" This was a village bank with deposits reached 200 million rupiah.

All fields of new provision is the fruit of the presence of hybrid power plants? Wind and sun? That exist in their village shoreline. Hybrid technology is relatively new. In Indonesia, Oeledo is the first village to use it. In the world, countries that apply this technology in a matter of numbers are still fingers.

It is compared with only wind power and solar energy alone, hybrid technology is clearly superior because it does not entirely depend on the sun. So, when the sky was overcast, or night falls and the sun disappeared, the power plant will be powered by windmills. Electricity was still flowing.

Conversely, when the wind is blowing lackluster, solar cell panels capture the sun can continue to supply electricity. "This plant is suitable for areas that the weather often changed," said Giuseppe, the Italian doctor from the power company, Enel, which became the project consultant.

Because of these advantages, wind power projects and the sun was on June 8, then it won the first race the new generation of environmentally friendly energy in the ASEAN level. The award was given in conjunction with the meeting of ASEAN ministers of energy and mineral sector that took place in Chiang Mai, Thailand. In fact this technology has now become a model for at least 32 countries in Asia and Africa.

Power plant technology is actually not complicated. It consists of three main parts: windmills, solar panels contain cells, and electricity storage. When the wind blows, the blades of windmills will move rotate the dynamo that generates electrical current. Electricity is then distributed to the storage in the form of a car battery.

At the same time, when the sun shines, solar cell panels to be changed to also catch rays into electricity. These panels contain photovoltaic cells made of two layers of silicon. When it is exposed to sunlight, two layers of silicon will produce positive and negative ions, and electricity is created.

Electricity from solar panels and windmills are still in the form of direct current (direct current, DC). Whereas household appliances such as televisions, radios, irons, saws, electric refrigerators require fast-flowing back and forth (alternating current, AC). That's needed for an inverter, converting the DC current into 220 volts AC. The power plant can produce 50 kilowatts of power? It is enough for 600 homes. It is currently only 127 heads of households who subscribe to the electricity. Each of the 450 watts to get electricity and pay Rp 5,000 per month.

Cheap power plant was built in 1997 by E7 (a consortium of electric companies from seven countries, namely Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Italy, Britain and the United States). Oeledo was chosen because of an isolated village, having the potential wind and solar are adequate, and there is no electricity from PLN.

Julius said, before there was electricity, the majority of the population lives miserable. They just harvest from farm fields and occasionally take sugar from sugar palm tree. "The median income for families in Oeledo was only Rp 62,500 per month," said Julius Lopo, the local village chief. Home residents were almost entirely walled palm midrib and dirt floors.

When the power began to light up the village, the lives of citizens Oeledo improved. Sewing machines, looms, electric saws began rattling. Cottage industry grew. "Income per family in Oeledo now increase to USD 650 thousand-$ 1 million per month," said Susi MD Katipana, Director of Women in Transitional Foundation, a nonprofit organization designated to escort the electric project.

The wind has been blowing a change in Oeledo. the wind blow collided with the sound track Scorpion group, Wind of Change, which came out of the radio population. "... Take me to the magic of the moment on a glory night. Where the children of tomorrow dream away ...."

SUV "Luxury" made by China get uncertain fate in Rotterdam

Rotterdam - This is the unlucky fate of Chinese-made cars assumed as the BMW X5 cheat to be exported to Germany as well! For three years, the uncertain fates and it rot in a warehouse in the port of Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Vehicles left to not to be sold by Shung Huan -made SUVs Auto , tracing out the BMW X5 model. China Car Times even mention the SUV named by SCEO is the result of a perfect clone of the BMW X5.

Once it is out of SUVs sold in Germany, BMW complaints directly to the authorized court. As a result, the court ruled, prohibits SCEO sold in Europe. The revealed reason given by the court, SCEO is a mere duplication of the country's best SUV, X5. Subsequent court order of the official court it to destroy the car.

Nevertheless, the vehicle importer, distributor of China Autimobile Deutchchland Group, try to survive and says there are many differences between the BMW X5 and SCEO. However, the German court remains in his decision and Court reject this submitted argument.

Managing Director of China Automobile Group Deutchland Karl Schoessle tell the complicated problem to the Automotive News Europe. According to him, SCEO is different from the X5. He even argued, "I see, in fact there are similarities between the BMW and Audi." It turns out that argument China Car Times commented, "Both German brands both use four wheels and not the design!"

Photos of Chinese SUV decaying condition is accepted by China Car Times a few days ago. He explained that the image was sent by unknown someone who had access to car storage area in the Port of Rotterdam. It is estimated, this SUV shipped to Rotterdam in late 2007 or early 2008.

To date there are no persons or companies claiming to be owners of these vehicles, both distributors and Shung Huang German Auto. The reason is, if the vehicle is recognized belongs to them, certainly the authorized port will definitely ask for rent warehouse. Not only that, it turns out the cost of transport ships are also unpaid.

In the photo sent, seemed part of a vehicle that struck chromated corrosion. This situation also proves the quality of Chinese cars is low. In fact, another factor that contributes menpercepat chrome losing kemilaunya is the influence of salt from sea water vapor in the harbor. Nevertheless, it's more clearly because the outside of the engine also has bad or rotting participate!

Great Audi increasingly focuses on the reliable Concept of Fantastic R10

GERMANY- In terms of attractive design and powerful perfomance, the reliable figure of the elegant Audi R8 as one of the great supercars from Germany to make people spellbound. Now, the German car manufacturer is preparing the next more reliable generation supercar called the R10 for competitive rival of Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Developed spirit of Audi to build R10 began in 2009. At that time, brilliant industrial design student of Marouane Bembli, Sweden took the study design as an impressive image car to the German automobile manufacturer. They propose this imaginative sketch to became Audi supercar of next generation aimed at achieving on top of R8.

However, elegant Audi was then more concerned with the fantastic R8 and now Bembli asked to complete a new R10. The well-prepared project is called the R10 v2.0 with the same V10 engine configurations.

Meanwhile, from the exclusive exterior, this low-roofed concept of kupe with a wide body with the convincing features, from front to back, is aggressive. It is combined with the outside rearview mirror and amazing model in a large cabin and exhaust tip inspired by jet fighter aircraft.

Overall, the exclusive design is more cohesive. Moreover, the position of the rear lights are high. And for those that have not been trained eye to see the drawing, the fantastic R10 is really very unique.

You should watch Environmentally friendly first film titled "24" at least one

Hollywood is increasingly environmentally conscious. One of Hollywood's television film production, "24", produced without leaving a carbon footprint meaning that it does not destroy ozone in the Earth's surface.

"24", made by Fox TV owned by Rupert Murdoch, is the first film made with the environmental approach. During the production process, they will not produce the least carbon.



This measure, as written daily New York Times on Monday (2 / 3), was in accordance with the command Murdoch. This media bosses have stated that they did not film production will increase the amount of carbon in the earth in 2010.

This program is not easy. Fox, which produces "24", an environmental consultant hired to evaluate how much gas that is harmful to the earth removed during production.

They are grouped into two categories of emissions: energy for transport and special effects as well as electricity used for the decor and office.

Transport is included to send the scenario and the cars the movie player. 95 percent of total energy used for transportation. They change their car with a hybrid type which is very great. Affairs scenario? They rely on email. In this way, it is about 5,000 liters of gasoline - a small tanker truck - saved.

For special effects, they could not do it without removing the carbon dioxide. Just imagining a car chase scene, it was impossible not dispose of harmful gases into the earth.

"If we need car chases, we'll make the chase," said Howard Gordon, executive producer of "24". "Our obligation is first and foremost is to the fans."

In order to achieve the target without the carbon footprint, they exchanged with the environment friendly energy in India. They managed to exchange 1291 tons of carbon dioxide they produce with wind power in India.

Fox is not the first Hollywood company that "go green". In November, NBC Universal produce three programs produced by environmentally friendly methods, including "Nightly News With Brian Williams" and "Saturday Night Live".

The program is produced by environmentally friendly fuel, using recycled goods. Warner Brothers and Disney also has the environmental division. But the first claim of film production, remain held "24".

Film Production Well "24" is so Environmentally Friendly:

- Scenario sent via the Internet.
- All cars are used, the type of hybrid that is very energy efficient.
- Using solar yield of 20 percent biodiesel for diesel cars. In the next production, they will use a hybrid light trucks.

- The light in the bathroom and kitchen use motion switch, so if it is no-one, automatic die.

- Electricity was chosen as wind and solar results, although more expensive to pay on his foreign policy of California.

- If you can not avoid the release of carbon, such as racing scene-kebutan or overturning cars, their "buy" carbon from India.

It's better you know about How to Make Easy your powerful Car Turbo durable

The fast and powerful car that has turbo-equipped devices do have greater running performance than the usual car without these more complete devices. one of advantages is more powerful.

Only, the frequent use of these more complete devices also need special treatment. Understandably, the task is not too mild for turbo to work. "Work is hard turbo. Therefore there should be special treatment for elegant cars that use this device, "

The working principle is that devices, with a strong push air into the engine to increase the number of oxygen molecules that enter the complicated cylinder for continous combustion in the engine completely so that it will be increasing engine power.

Turbo utilize exhaust gas flow from the engine to turn turbines, which continues round to the air compressor. The turbine is rotated up to 150 thousand rounds per minute (rpm). The amount is equivalent to 30 times the spin machine is not equipped turbo car.

But that big round will not be exactly achieved when the powerful turbo problems. In fact, the continous process of combustion air and fuel in the combustion chamber also works imperfect as expected.

What treatment is right?

1. Note the regular oil change schedule

Basically the car engine maintenance turbo equipped devices are no different from non-turbo car. Only, powerful turbo car is strongly recommended to change the oil before the replacement arrives.

"For example, if a car without turbo is advisable to change liquid oil after traveling 5,000 kilometers, the powerful car with a turbo 4,000 kilometers,"

One thing to remember is, do not change the oil with any other brand. That is, standard use for the oil in accordance with manufacturer manual guidance.

Oil change needs to be done more quickly, the article of turbo is hard work. Devices that have to spend extra energy to fight back pressure from exhaust air.

When the turbo is sluggish, it will quickly occur turbo lag, ie the turbo can not deliver additional power immediately when the gas is pressed or a new turbo work on a certain engine speed. This phenomenon is often the case, and a distinctive character of the turbo.

"Hence, the car manufacturer offers a twin turbo or super turbo, but when the powerful turbo is sluggish at high rpm of engine power was not different with non-turbo car,"

In addition, with the good oil lubrication in the turbo components also will exactly work well.

2. Regular Service

Service in question here does not necessarily mean great service, but it's also simple service ie starting from the check and tune up the existing components. It needs to be done considering the role and duty turbo quite heavy.

Some signs of trouble among other turbo oil leaks, noise, and vibration in the car that was unusual. If the problems in turbo not immediately repaired, the machine will not get the extra power, because the air pressure into the combustion chamber is also not optimal.

However, one thing should be remembered not just any shop that does not use the services of specialized repair turbo. The reason is, when an error occurs then the result is precisely the handling of the turbo not functioning optimally.

3. Pre-heat the engine before the car runs

Currently, car manufacturers have complementary devices in the car turbo of their car products with adjusters technology so that cars are capable of adapting to existing conditions. Thanks to this technology, users no longer need a car when the car heats will be used.

So even when the car is finished tools and machines will be turned off, the driver also did not have to let the engine idle or let the engine was still burning some time before it is turned off. "But as a precaution for turbo remain durable, we recommend conservative rituals that remain to be done,"

Because, with the engine warm up the engine oil will reach the optimal working temperature when the driver stepped on the gas pedal in a device-in to activate it. Meanwhile, by letting the engine running for a while (idle) before it is turned off allowing the oil keep flowing.

When the machine suddenly turned off, the oil flow to the turbo engine also stopped abruptly. In fact, at the same time still active turbo spinning at high speed. As a result of bearing will be injured.

"Once again, the steps that must be done to turbo durable, especially for turbo technology that has not completed the adjuster,"

Hopefully, it will be realizes as oon as possible for Automotive Technology Trends Towards Euro6 Standards (continued)

Increasingly tight regulations on automobile emissions standards is the government's efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions. Understandably, the greenhouse effect or global warming is more alarming. In addition, it is also reducing dependence on fossil fuels.

Various means have been exhausted including to make hybrid and electric cars. However, the implementation is uneasy because of many factors to consider.

If the car uses electric power, you can imagine how hard for engine factory, because foundry would stop production. In these industries, they support many people on this earth. The number is very large. As the reference quated, last year alone, the number of cars (not including motorcycles), reached 51 million units produced. Thus, the economic element is also very strong to influence the problems..




Therefore, implementing the transition to electrification, automotive engineers are still doing development on the engine components today.

Piezo injectors
Facing Euro6 implementing regulations, there is one of the ways used by car manufacturers - in cooperation with the supplier - is to engineer components that it make the machine work more efficiently. Important component of today's machines to determine the efficiency of the engine is injector, both for diesel and gasoline.

For diesel engine, it is introduced for the latest generation of piezoelectric injection nozzle. Piezo element acts directly on the nozzle needle without requiring an intermediary hydraulic system. In this way, the degree and duration of injector opening (work) can be controlled more accurately.

In this way, there are new options. Currently only used multiple injections are still needed several mechanical components. With the new injectors implemented, piezo actuators and belerka as sensors report the precise position of the nozzle needle to the engine computer.

As a result, the system will control the flow of the fuel itself. Computer machines, in addition to control the vehicle, also can detect any change in the flow of fuel at the injector. Amazingly, the computer can adjust the injector individually (their own).

As a result, emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) can be lowered. Fuel consumption is also so much more efficient. Nitrogen oxide emission reduction achieves Euro6 standards, such as 80 mg / km, from the previous Euro5, 180 mg / km.

Development of hydraulic injector design is also able to optimize the work machine. This has been evidenced by the millions of piezo common rail systems in use today. At present piezo injectors, fuel return to tank can be lowered to 40 percent.

As a result, CO2 emissions in passenger cars using diesel can be minus for one gram per km. Another positive outcome, to supply fuel could use a lower pressure pump. This is involved to reduce component cost.

Magnetic injector
For gasoline engines more aggressively using direct injection systems, injector of latest generation keep magnetic work. According to Continental, they are managed to develop a new XL3 generation injector which it is able to minimize the volume of injection. This is a new option from the system in previous use, ie multiple injections or also known as injection stages (stratified).

The result is a more efficient combustion. Increasing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of the main targets,it increasingly lower the price of components plus the more affordable price.

Historical moment for friendly environmentally prestige of Solar Pulse's Solar Aircraft

Surprisingly, revolutionary progress of science and technology increasingly evolve. One of them is renewable energy exploitation such as electric vehicles, solar vehicles, and biogas vehicles and other renewable energy. The principal electricity becomes base of technical mecanism to develop futuristic vehicles. How to change renewable substances to electric substance in order to move things, especially vehicles. In thic case, how to change solar energy to save into electric substance to move this aircraft. That is principal working mechanism. And it work out for Solar Pulse.



Switzerland - Solar Impulse, aircraft that fly with the sun's energy fuels successfully flew for 26 hours and 9 minutes. This is the first plane to fly with the sun's energy fuels as well be the longest flight in history.

Chairman of the flight team, Bertrand Piccard said that the success of the flight for 26 hours using solar energy demonstrates the potential for renewable energy and clean technology. Piccard was the first to make a nonstop flight around the world use air balloons for over a decade in 1999.

Solar Impulse of HB-SIA has a wing of the same size as the Airbus A340: 64.3 meters and there are 12 thousand solar cells in it. The plane weighing 1,600 kg has been backed by four electric motors designed to save energy from solar cells. During 26 hours of flying, carbon-fiber aircraft has a maximum speed of 68 knots (speed over ground), average speed 23 knots and a maximum altitude of 8564 meters above sea level.

Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Solar Impulse, Andre Borschberg who directly intervened in the project said that it almost did not believe he had been driving a solar energy-fueled plane. "Unbelievable, this is a better success than we expected," he said.

Borschberg is a former Swiss air force pilots who have hours of flying for 40 years. He returned to his expertise was in the cockpit Solar Impulse to fly from Payerne air base in the northwestern district of Vaud, on Wednesday morning. The plane took off before 7 am to capture as much sunlight when flying over the Jura mountains to the west of the Alps, Switzerland.

When the sun goes down, the engineers hope that the aircraft battery is fully charged energy from 12,000 solar cells mounted on the body and wings of Solar Impulse. Energy stored in batteries can keep four fire engines throughout the night. The battery will be charged again at sunrise.

Now Solar Impulse prototype plane is designing the next generation expected to make the flight across the Atlantic and around the world in 2012.

Funds spent on this solar-powered aircraft project by 100 million Swiss francs (about U.S. $ 95 million). Some of the companies participating in the project namely chemical company from Solvay SA of Belgium, the Swiss watchmaker of Omega, part of the Swatch group, and German banking giant of Deutsche Bank.

It should be not ignored about Amazing Car Racing Formula 3, Apart Fast And Delicious

LONDON - This is the fantastic car racing Formula 3 (F3) the world's first use of biofuel (BBN) or biodiesel derived from chocolate. As a result, people who saw it commented: "In addition to fast, too delicious!"

No less interesting, the strong wheel uses a carrot base material, while the dectile body of the potato! Then certainly, this is not F3 vegetables or a representative model for food for the wonderful party. It is a elegant F3 car which is exactly made in accordance with complicated racing specifications and serve as the interesting appeal by a group of researchers from the outstanding University of Warwick, Conventry, West Midland, England.

Already Introduced

What can it be indeed made by F3 racing cars of foodstuffs and vegetables? If it could be, it certainly would cause controversy. Because the manufacture of biofuel, mainly originating from food or nuts are also a staple food of man, now denounced by various humanitarian agencies of the world. Cause, there are still many people in the wonderful world who are still experiencing shortages of food, to be in starvation. However, it won't be problematic if it's applied for car racing. Wow!

That's obvious reality! Last Tuesday, a solid team of brilliant researchers from the University of Warwick, Coventry, introduced an F3 race cars that use truly natural vegetable base.

200 km / h

This car research groups, consisting of Dr Kerry Kirwan, Dr Steve Maggs, and Dr. James Meredith as a dedicated project manager, calling their team with the University's Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG). When the introductions, they explained, it had been able to speed up the F3 car up to speeds of 200 km / hour.

Despite using delicous chocolate as fuel, the idea of ​​WMG certainly will not cause controversy. In fact, it could be praised. Because the eco-friendly biofuel for cars are not made directly from the chocolate which has become one of the favorite foods for many people around the world, especially in developed countries. WMG make beneficial fuel from waste chocolate that has been discarded by the factory!

Still, for other important components, could lead to debate, and that certainly pleased the farmers. The reason is, some important components made from plants and vegetables are also a staple of everyday people. For example, the steering wheel from the body of carrots and potatoes.

Environmentally Friendly

Previously, this advanced car has generated a lot of speculation in the UK. "But starting today, we've been able to try it. Everything is ready and complete, "said Dr. James Meredith. Even so, in the last report, this new car can be accelerated at a maximum speed of 96 km / hour.

For this surprishing project, WNG is working with the Warwick Innovative Manufacturing Research Centre. Explained also by a college team is, in fact they really want to show and prove to the related industry which environmentally friendly cars can be made at this time.

Environmentally friendly they mean not only exhaust emissions are low, but, if they can not be used again, the magnificent car can be recycled easily. In addition, it's easily obtained and it can be updated. "We are trying so that we can streamline the vital resources that exist on our planet," said the high pengguruan in a release.

All the cars meet the standards of fantastic racing Formula 3, except for diesel engines. Especially for machines, parts that must be adjusted with the fuel it uses, that biofuels made from waste vegetable oil plus chocolate. In the actual race, F3 may not use the biofuel.

From the visual video shown by this brilliant team including on YouTube, widely considered the engine sounds very good. The agile driver never seem to push down the gas pedal. Also described, fantastic F3 will later be on display at the great European Grand Prix and Goddwood Festivel of Speed.

Wow! this is what I like it considering to Hybrid Electric Bicycles supported by WiFi tech

American courier company use alternative-powered cars to prepare UPS Hydraulic Hybrid Cars

United Parcel Services (UPS), had positive progress for energy savings goals. American courier company was planning to use alternative-powered cars to distribute the packets belong to customers. That was a car using hybrid tech hydraulic machine (hydraulic hybrid vehicles / HHV).


In its official statement noted, this effort was part of the social responsibility of the UPS in an effort to save energy. UPS has ordered as many as seven units of HHV to be operated Within the 2009 to 2010. Two of them certainly have been in a garage on the UPS first quarterly next year.

HHV was a technology developed by the U.S. environmental protection agency, EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). This machine was the result of a combination of a diesel engine using a hydraulic system to supply power. Without the driving circuit system (drivetrain) and conventional transmission exploited, this engine could reach a maximum round-efficient all the time.

Scheme of the UPS hybrid car engine

The pattern of work, the power generated by diesel engines will be collected in a high-pressure accumulator through a pump. Where mover of pump motor is connected to the wheels. When the car brakes, the pump motor will work to capture about 70 percent of the energy created from braking. The amount is nearly three times greater than amount captured by a hybrid electric-powered braking system.

UPS was optimistic that, by adopting this engine in the car operational, they could cut the cost of fuel consumption by 50 percent. On the other hand, technology of machine was not widely known yet. it was believed to be able to reduce emissions by 30 percent.

"We're not sure when this car legally be used on the streets of America," said David Abney Chief Operating UPS in these releases. David added, through the release, the UPS was not being declaring that this hybrid hydraulic machine is powerful to save energy. "At least the technology is quite promising," he said.
