Food Scraps To Cars

 On this occasion, we will not refer to Electric power for cars, but a pilot project that seeks to provide a new form of energy, which also provides a solution to the waste treatment and recycling of various waste.

At the moment it is not conclusively applied, but that it is a Pilot test carried out by the Institute of engineering and biotechnology of Fraunhofer, which takes advantage of its proximity to the large shopping centers to get a good amount of food waste, more precisely of fruits and vegetables.
These residues are collected and used for through a fermentation process, generate Biogas that is later treaty for a good amount of methane, which is a source of Natural Gas to propel the car.

This project, although it is in testing stage, already has the approval by the German Ministry of education and development , as well as the endorsement of the Baden Württemberg energy company, in order to provide support for developing efficient, considering that it is not just the storage and treatment of waste, but also the maintenance of the conditions of pH that microorganisms produce the greatest amount of Biogas as possible.

The proceeds will be used by the Group Daimler, who will be using it and testing with their cars of the brands Mercedes-Benz, Smart and Maybach.

Endesa and Peugeot Allies for Electric Mobility

Endesa and Peugeot have signed an agreement in Madrid that merges them into an Alliance that is aimed at the further development of electric mobility as well as energy savings. New merger between Peugeot and Endesa has been signed in Madrid by Javier Uriarte, director general of Endesa energy and by Rafael Prieto Martin, Deputy Chief Executive, Peugeot Spain. This new Alliance of the two leading companies in Spain and in the world aims to achieve greater development of electric mobility and course, to achieve a higher energy saving, contribute to the environment.

The Importance of Using Electric Cars

We therefore believe that this new merger benefit both the manufacturer Peugeot to Endesa, as well as drivers and the planet as it will be an excellent way to cooperate to avoid contamination. Based on this partnership, both Peugeot and Endesa aim to put in place all activities related to the mobility of electric cars or other vehicles.

Furthermore, Peugeot would provide electric cars to the fleet of Endesa, and on the other hand, Endesa shall identify infrastructure charging that the company could install to installations of Peugeot. Of course, all this thinking of the benefit for consumers as well as also on the benefit that involves helping to raise awareness of the use of renewable energy and clean energy.

Tesla Model X

Urban mobility is pointing increasingly to the existence on the streets more and more vehicles that use clean energy, the most likely to be fully applied technology Electric Cars, with a lot of them already rolling down the streets, and projects to provide a sustainable platform for its operation, such as Wireless Charging in Avenues that will be launched in major cities.

On this occasion, we bring what will be the mainstay of one of the new models of the pioneers in Electric Motor technology and high performance, the U.S. company Tesla Motors, the presentation of a new prototype.

Family Vehicle

With the creation of the prototype Tesla Model X, aims to provide an electrical solution to those looking for a suitable car for the family, without having characteristics of a utility, but provides the features and amenities they offer.

This leads to a design that allows to place the same platform Battery Pack which is equipped in cars of this firm (and give this key autonomy) but mounted on a structure much higher than other cars of the firm.



Like any luxury car we dream to have, the rear seats are accessed through a system of gullwing doors (which Tesla prefers to call Hawk Wings) that allows complete freedom to include a third row of seats, which is easily accessible.

As for the engine, has two variants available (a 60 KWh and a 85-kWh) that revolve around the same performance, giving an acceleration of 0 to 100 in a range close to 5 seconds.

The production model will be available in late 2013, beginning to be delivered to buyers in early 2014.

Food Remnants To Cars

On this occasion, we will not refer to the Electric power for cars, but a pilot project that seeks to provide a new form of energy, which also provides a solution to the waste treatment and recycling of various waste.

At the moment it is not applied in form, but that is a Pilot test carried out by the Institute of engineering and biotechnology of Fraunhofer, which takes advantage of its proximity to the large shopping centers to get a good amount of food waste, more precisely fruits and vegetables.

These residues are collected and used for through a fermentation process, generate biogas that is later treaty in order to obtain a good amount of methane, constituting a source of Natural Gas to fuel cars.

This project, while it is in testing stage, already has the approval by the German Ministry of education and development , as well as the endorsement of the Baden Württemberg energy company, in order to provide support for developing efficient, considering that it is not just storage and proper disposal of waste, but also the maintenance of the conditions of pH that microorganisms generate the largest amount of biogas as possible.

The retrieved will be tapped by the Daimler group, who will be using it and testing with their cars of the brands Mercedes-Benz, Smart and Maybach.

Green Cars

This car world is experiencing a surprising awareness of energy used in mobility, with the big companies looking for alternatives that produce lower emissions of CO2, and even using electric motors as a new high performance some of them matching the performance of an internal combustion engine.


Among the innovations that have been presented in the Hall of Los Angeles Auto, one of the ones we have drawn attention related to green cars, is the concept developed by the American firm Cadillac, one of the most classic of the United States.

The design, dubbed Cadillac Aera, as its name suggests, used as compressed air energy source, and although not explained too how it works your engine, have vowed to offer a range of about 1,000 miles (ie, about 1610 kilometers) which is what can go without requiring a recharge.

The charge stored in a small storage tank would be located where the fuel tank, and has a futuristic design by others, despite maintaining the traditional capacity of four occupants, for the nostalgic, use the same system for opening doors the legendary Lamborghini.
