SolPower 9000 Patio Umbrella

Now you can lounge under the cover of the SolPower 9-Feet Patio Umbrella with your cell phone, tablet, digital camera or other USB charging device-and never worry about battery life. Running low? No need to get up, just plug your device into one of the USB ports on the umbrella pole and get an instant charge. Features 2 built in USB ports and UV resistant fabric.

Solar-Powered Beach Mat

Powered by a five-watt solar panel and a built-in thermal fridge, the Beachill waterproof mattress lets beach-goers keep their drinks cold and their portable devices charged while making a positive impact on the environment.

Its lightweight design makes it easy to carry to and from any location and a small pocket provides storage space.

Antoine Sayah developed the product for a university project that prompted students to invent something that was both ecological and useful to their day-to-day lives.

Airo – Solar powered self filling water bottle

Fontus has designed a clever way for cyclists and hikers to stay hydrated in the great outdoors. The company has developed a self-filling water bottle that pulls moisture from the air – so you never have to worry about refills ever again. The solar-powered technology harvests water using a Peltier Element – a two-chambered cooler designed to encourage condensation. As air moves through the upper chamber, it is slowed by several barriers. The decrease in airflow speed allows for the release of water molecules, which are pulled from the air and then stored in a bottle.

 

CivicSolar Powered Water Pumps

 

A solar-powered water pumping system consists of four parts:  the actual pump which moves the water, the controller which adjusts the pump speed and output power as the solar panel input varies, the engine, and the solar panels. The specifics of the system design are determined by the following considerations:

  • The site-specific available solar energy (or insolation).
  • The volume of water required in a given period of time for the application at hand. This may include additional water to be stored for periods when the PV is not operating or has diminished output.
  • The total dynamic head (TDH) for the pump (the equivalent height that water must be raised, taking friction losses in the pipes into account.)
  • The quantity and quality of available water.
  • The system’s proposed layout and hydraulic criteria.
