The electric car market soon is a notable expansion, as planned by the major manufacturers in the world of the engine by the 2012, and this leads to the establishment of charging stations, and peripheral technologies to do so (such as GPS TomTom Navigator presented above, to provide a sustainable platform for the use of these vehicles.)
On this occasion, we have the example of the firm, IKEA, known for providing electrical appliances for the home that offer a very low power consumption and high performance, which has decided to make a strong investment for the platform of car is comes next year, turning in lathe their electricity supply so that they work.
The first step to take is the installation of charging stations present in the 10 most important stores of the United States, being one of the first steps of the project called ECOtality, which seeks to integrate electric cars with the most visited shopping malls.
The operation of the engines and the autonomies, a survey of data of yields of car batteries, is will be getting in addition to the operation of these centers of cargo, to seek to contribute to the development of new technologies to obtain a better overall performance.

Sunforce 50033 15-Watt Solar Charging Kit
The Sunforce 50033 15-Watt Solar Charging Kit gives you several more reasons to love the sun. It provides the power you need, while helping you save money and protect the environment. This kit is ideal for cabins, recreational vehicles, remote power, back-up power, and 12-volt battery charging. It comes with everything you need to start producing up to 15 Watts/125mA of clean, free power in all weather conditions.
Convenient Power That Helps You Save Money and Protect the Environment
The Sunforce 50033 15-Watt Solar Charging Kit lets you harness the power of the sun, the most powerful and plentiful source of energy available to us. This inexhaustible supply of power is freely available wherever the sun shines, and gives users the freedom to power their homes, RVs, boats, batteries, and electronic equipment far from civilization or right in town. Solar power can help cut your energy bills by reducing your dependence on the main electrical grid, and can also provide back-up power during outages. Unlike nuclear and fossil fuels, solar power systems are clean and pollution-free, and they require very little maintenance to operate.
Everything You Need to Power Up
The Sunforce 50033 15-Watt Solar Charging Kit has everything you need to start generating power. It includes one 15-Watt amorphous solar panel, a 7-Amp solar charge controller, and a wiring kit with accessories for easy installation.
With built-in blocking diode technology, this solar charging kit is designed to protect against battery discharge at night. You can also use this kit to maintain the charge on any 12-Volt battery for clean, silent operation of various electronics, such as deer feeders and landscaping pumps. The included charge controller features a built-in ultra-bright blue LED charging indicator, and is a great choice for automobiles, recreational vehicles, tractors, all-terrain vehicles, boats, electric fences, telemetry and more.
About Amorphous Solar Power
Amorphous solar panels are created by spraying silicon on to glass in very thin layers, and are commonly known as thin film solar panels. This process allows them to be better at generating electricity in all lighting conditions, including cloudy or shady environments. Sunforce amorphous solar panels are weatherproof and suitable for outdoor use. They have a maximum operating temperature range of -40 to 176-degrees Fahrenheit, require virtually no maintenance, and are also effective on cloudy days. They can even withstand impacts from one-inch hailstones at 50 miles-per-hour.
Solar panels convert sunlight into an electric current, they do not store power. Sunforce Solar Charging Kits are primarily used to recharge 12-Volt batteries (not included), which store and provide usable power. A power inverter (not included) allows you to use traditional 110-Volt appliances with this system. The included Sunforce 7-Amp Solar Charge Controller must be installed to prevent any connected batteries from overcharging. Once fully charged, it is normal for the charge controller LED to turn off and on as the battery voltage fluctuates from the discharge/recharge cycle.
